## A Hotel Laundry Born from the Voices of Frontline Staff
The laundry system 'wash+ Comfort' for hotels and accommodations was developed in 2022, reflecting the feedback of hotel staff.
It responds to growing inbound demand and long-term stays, reduces staff effort, achieves labor savings, and contributes to improving facility value by achieving 10 SDG goals.
### ◎ Realizes Labor Saving and Reduces Staff Effort
- Standard cashless payment eliminates the need for money exchange.
- Standard multilingual support (English, Korean, Simplified/Traditional Chinese) reduces time spent explaining how to use it.
- Online sales and operational management overwhelmingly reduces laundry management effort.
- Separating washers and dryers improves availability and reduces inquiries to the front desk.
- Compact, easy-to-maintain equipment that fits into a washing machine pan reduces maintenance effort.
### ◎ Contributes to Facility Value Enhancement
- Allergen-free because no detergent is used.
- Reduces wastewater pollution and environmental impact due to detergent-free operation.
- Significantly saves water compared to vertical washing machines (approx. 70% for High-end model, 50% for Standard model).
- Contributes to reduced utility costs by running washers and dryers only as needed.
- Harmonizes with the luxurious and extraordinary atmosphere of the hotel through our original calm, black-toned exterior.
