[box type=”shadow” ]IT IS ALL ABOUT ENERGY AND WATER SAVINGS
All visitors are interested in the whole range that we offer, be it washing machine or fabric iron or dryer or folding machine. The most interesting thing is everybody want to save environment and energy. The cost is secondary.
All our machines have heat recovery system — in the tumble dryers or for washing in hot water in the washing machines. We have special insulation systems besides specially designed drive to save energy and water. With the Ironer, we have very high insulated machine and a drive system which ensures less electricity consumption.
In general, the demand for washing is almost the same in Dubai and India. In Dubai, however there is more emphasis on environment in comparison to India. But India is growing very fast and I am sure India too will give equal importance to environment in the future.
Our focus has been energy saving and all our innovations reflect the same. Though they are a bit more expensive, there is tremendous savings comparatively. If I compare the dyer, for example, you can save up to 70% of the heating energy through our system. Likewise the ironer, it is less because you can save energy only on the drive system. However, compared to the old version of our machine, you save 15 to 20% and if I compare the old machine with what you will find in the market, you will save up to 50% charged energy in the drive system.
With all these new technology, we have been growing steadily. The company is moving in the right direction and we will move step by step in each country. For India, we will be looking at stabilizing the market in the next five years.

Tourism has always been a flourishing industry which directly increases demand for cleaning and laundry solution at the hospitality front. Huub Hoffmann, Sales Manager, Vega Systems B.V, exhibitor at the Gulf Laundrex show, said, “Compared to last year, I noticed more suppliers this time. Middle East is a growing market for laundry; with more and more airlines coming here, it’s easy for people from Europe and Asia to travel here.”
Innovation and Technology
Speaking about the innovative solutions, Vladimir Kharitonov, MD Green Chute Environmental Solutions, Dubai, who participated for the first time in CMEP, said,“Now we are using ozone as sanitizers which are 120% effective and can eliminate even hard contaminants like fungi, yeast and mold. This product is environment friendly and leaves no byproduct as it uses natural air (O2) to make ozone (O3) to deplete the bacteria.” Hence, the disinfectants installed in buildings, which use chutes to carry garbage, will be odour free and hygienic.
Intercare introduced Haga’s steel bin which is solar powered with enough reserve to run even on not so sunny days. The steel bin, fitted with two normal wheelie bins and a facility to compress the garbage with the press of a button enables more storage. “More suited in busy areas, it also gives an attractive look at the side of the road.” Manufactured in Finland, it is equipped with indicators which send out messages online when the waste bins fill the 2000 litres mark. There is also a foot pedal, making it touch-free and hygienic.
Beeha brought in interesting tyre and rubber waste recycled pellets and crush which can be laid out in the play area and enhance design factor in construction respectively.
