Fixed slots, passenger-facing standards.
Airports & Lounges
Aviation work runs to the aircraft schedule, not to a laundry schedule. Textiles cycle on a fixed rotation, delivery hits a defined airside window, and the presentation standard is set by what a paying passenger sees at arm’s length.
Lounge operations add a second rhythm on top: continuous cleaning through operating hours, with F&B napery and towelling turning over all day.
What we run at an airport
- Cabin blankets, pillow and headrest covers on rotational programmes
- Lounge linen — napery, towelling, upholstery covers
- Crew uniform, including presentation pressing
- Lounge cleaning through operating hours
- Washroom attendance and hygiene systems
Working to the airside schedule
| Constraint | What it means in practice |
|---|---|
| Security clearance | Operatives and drivers require airside passes; lead time on vetting is measured in weeks, not days. |
| Fixed delivery slots | Textile delivery hits a defined window. A missed slot is not rescheduled, it is a shortfall. |
| Rotation, not daily | Sets cycle on a rotation tied to the flight programme rather than a fixed calendar. |
| Presentation standard | Cabin textiles are seen at arm’s length by paying passengers; finishing is the differentiator. |
| Continuous lounge hours | Lounges do not close between flights, so cleaning runs through operating hours. |
Why partners take on aviation work
- Premium finishing margins relative to bulk linen
- Rotational volume that is contracted rather than tendered per season
