Polytex Launches Total Care Manager for Industrial Laundries: The First fully Automated Textile Management Ecosystem at EXPOdetergo Milan

Italy – October 23, 2026. Polytex Technologies officially launches its new Total Care Manager for industrial laundries at EXPOdetergo International tradeshow. 

The moment textiles leave the laundry facility, operational control and inventory visibility are lost. Efficient management turns into a complex challenge as laundries rely on manual counts, bulk weights, or rough estimations. These operational blind spots frequently result in missing inventory, excessive safety stock, and time-consuming billing disputes.

The Polytex Total Care Manager (TCM-L) solves these challenges by providing centralized monitoring and control across all customers accounts and individual customer sites. The platform offers clear drill-down visibility:

  • View full customer textile cycle operations at a glance
  • Monitor activity down to the specific customer site departments
  • Track the status of deployed machines and storage points
  • Receive actionable data insights to improve operational decision making
  • Real-time system alerts for efficient operational performance

When combined with Polytex RFID technology, laundries gain complete down to a single-item traceability across washing, distribution, and return processes.

“Our goal with the dedicated Total Care Manager for laundries is to eliminate operational blind spots and provide them complete visibility and control over their customer accounts and textile cycle” said Gilad Yoeli, CEO of Polytex Technologies. “By providing a full overview of all customer sites on a single platform down to machine inventory levels and single-item tracking, we empower laundries to seamlessly control shared and dedicated stock, reduce operational and labor costs through automated counting, and eliminate client disputes through transparent billing.”

“With the Polytex Total Care Manager, we gained full operational control … Ultimately, our primary reason for choosing Polytex was the constant availability combined with solutions adapted to the needs of new generations” — Serge Gibert, Hospital Laundry Manager, BIH77

“With textile traceability, we understand what each department consumes and can easily replenish… With all the data we now have in real time, we can meet the needs of each healthcare provider” — Miguel Fuentes, Chief Manager, Hospital Linen Management, SUCH

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Full Customer Overview: Real-time view across all customer accounts, sites, machine stock levels, and usage trends; enabling efficient multi-site management with zero unexpected inventory stockouts.
  • Transfer Activity: Real-time tracking of ‘Soiled Flow’ and ‘Clean Flow’ shipments between laundry and customer sites; ensuring end-to-end logistics transparency and instant detection of transfer gaps.
  • Distribution Points: Live item counts and operational status for deployed machines and storage points; guaranteeing 24/7 textile availability without overstocking customer sites.
