About Dry cleaning
Dry Cleaning follows India's organised garment care and laundry business. Fabric care pieces include advice from women who run laundries on textile care and maintenance, and festive garment care tips from WeClean. On the business side there is a growth playbook built on technology, manpower, location and customer experience, a guide to buying laundry machines, a podcast with entrepreneurs on barcode tracking and cloud operations, and the case for a unified standard to handle complaints and disputes.
Technology and investment appear through JENSEN's plans for energy-efficient commercial laundry, AI applications in laundry operations, Quick Clean's Series B funding and Cleanovo's wardrobe care centre in Mumbai. Sustainability is covered by The Laundry Concierge's CINET award and a LaundrexNet session on reducing and recycling, while healthcare linen articles explain how laundry quality affects hospital-acquired infections.
The section is written for dry cleaners, laundry owners and entrepreneurs, hotel and hospital linen managers and machine buyers.
