IRELAND

Christeyns, Alex Reid Ireland and National Laundry Industrial Equipment, (NLIE), joined forces to run a two-day open house event in Dublin, with live demonstrations on the safe and efficient wetcleaning of delicate textiles.

The event, held in early March, showcased Cole & Wilson's AquaWave concept in combination with premium National Laundry equipment.

“It was a great opportunity to answer questions and meet our customers face to face,” said Hemant Zavery, business development manager and wetcleaning specialist at Christeyns. “Being the first Cole & Wilson wetcleaning live demonstration meant customers could experience the feel, fragrance and finishing of the textiles. We hope to run similar events in the UK later in the year.”

Cole & Wilson, part of the Christeyns family, produces AquaWave laundry liquids sold under the Pro-Fit range of products. The AquaWave system can be used on a wide range of textiles including suede, leather and Ugg boots.
