The types of dirt in medical linen are complex. In addition to the same dirt as regular linen, there are also miscellaneous microorganisms, blood, urine, and feces. Therefore, disinfection (physical and chemical methods) and removal of special stains before washing are particularly important.
There are many types of medical linen, including white coats, surgical gowns, medical uniforms, bed sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, etc.
Eg:
1、 Basic information of hospital laundry volume
1. 1000 beds (estimated to be 300 wards)
2. 600 medical staff
It is expected that the average usage rate of the ward is 85%, and the medical staff's work clothes are washed every two days on average. The laundry room operates for 8 hours.
2、 Estimated laundry volume:
1. Sickbed
(1) Bed sheet: 0.25 KG/bed × 1000 beds=250KG
(2) Quilt cover: 0.4 KG/bed × 1000 beds=400KG
(3) Pillow case: 0.15 KG/bed × 1000 beds=150KG
(4) Sick clothing: 0.25 KG/bed × 1000 beds=250KG
(5) Curtain: 2 KG/room × 1/30 × 300 rooms=20KG
So the wet washing volume per ward: (250+400+150+250+20) * 85%=909.5KG
2. Hospital work clothes
0.5 KG/set × 600 sets × 1/2=150KG
3. Hospital Others
(1) Surgical gowns, tablecloths, and other surgical supplies: 200KG
(2) Office supplies: 60KG
(3) Carpet, office curtains, etc.: 150KG
(4) Other: 50KG

Total:
Daily laundry volume: 909.5+150+200+60+150+50=1579.5KG
Daily and hourly washing capacity: 1579.5KG ÷ 8 hours ≈ 198KG/hour

Equipment required: fully automatic washing machine, isolated washing machine, industrial dryer, ironing machine, folding machine.
