Laundry Applications with HydroFLOW®
HydroFLOW® improves the performance and longevity of laundry machines by treating limescale and reducing biofouling. It helps enhance wash quality, lower detergent usage, and reduce maintenance costs in commercial, industrial, and hospitality settings.
Optimising Laundry Machines with HydroFLOW®
Laundry machines are critical to operations in hotels, hospitals, and commercial laundries. However, they are vulnerable to limescale buildup and biofilm accumulation especially in hard water areas. These issues reduce heating efficiency, increase energy and detergent consumption, and lead to frequent repairs.
HydroFLOW® offers a chemical-free solution to treat these problems. By keeping heating elements, internal pipes, and valves clean, HydroFLOW® helps maintain consistent washing performance, extend machine life, and reduce downtime.

HydroFLOW® Solutions for Laundry Machines: Efficiency, Fabric Care, and Equipment Longevity
Treats Limescale & Scale Deposits
Limescale on heating elements and internal components can lead to longer wash cycles, higher energy bills, and equipment failure. HydroFLOW® treats scale by preventing mineral crystallisation, keeping calcium and magnesium in suspension.
Treats scaling in evaporators, ice trays, and water lines
Maintains optimal ice production and freezing efficiency
Reduces energy consumption by reducing heat transfer loss
Extends the lifespan of ice-making components
Reduces Biofilm & Bacterial Growth
Biofilm in pipes and drum interiors can cause odours, bacterial contamination, and hygiene risks especially in healthcare and food environments. HydroFLOW® inhibits biofilm formation, improving cleanliness and safety.
Reduces biofilm in hoses, drums, and drainage lines
Minimises bacterial growth, improving wash hygiene
Enhances odour control and reduces need for disinfectants
Supports health and safety compliance
Minimises Corrosion & Protects Components
Moisture, temperature changes, and chemical residues contribute to corrosion in metal parts. HydroFLOW® reduces conditions that cause corrosion by maintaining cleaner surfaces and better water chemistry.
Reduces corrosion in internal piping and components
Extends the operational life of valves, connectors, and heaters
Minimises wear-and-tear due to mineral deposits
Lowers replacement part and repair costs
Improves Detergent Efficiency & Reduces Chemical Use
Hard water reduces detergent effectiveness, requiring more product for the same result. HydroFLOW® conditions the water, allowing detergents to work more efficiently.
Enhances detergent performance even in hard water areas
Reduces detergent and softener usage
Improves rinse quality and reduces residues on fabrics
Supports cost savings and environmental goals
Reduces Maintenance Costs & Downtime
Descaling, filter cleaning, and pump repairs all add to operational costs. HydroFLOW® reduces these issues by treating water before it causes damage, allowing laundry systems to run reliably for longer.
Decreases the frequency of machine servicing
Reduces breakdowns and emergency repairs
Ensures uninterrupted laundry operations
Lowers lifecycle costs of laundry equipment
