About STAHL Laundry Machines
Gottlob STAHL Wäschereimaschinenbau GmbH is a fourth-generation family company based in Sindelfingen near Stuttgart that has been developing and producing commercial laundry technology exclusively since 1909. The product portfolio includes industrial washing machines (ATOLL, WS, DIVIMAT), laundry dryers, drying cabinets, flatwork ironers, folding machines (DOMESTIC, STARFOLD, KOMBIFOLD), laundry feeding machines (SERVANT) as well as disinfection airlocks and disinfection columns. Manufacturing is carried out in-house with maximum vertical integration of over 90%: this includes fully automatic laser cutting, laser-punching combinations, welding, milling and grinding robots, turning and milling centres, an automatic bending centre and its own powder coating plant. Machines are built solidly in stainless steel and powder-coated raw steel; the troughs and rollers of the ironers are manufactured in-house with diameters from 200 to 1610 mm. The machines are designed for continuous operation in laundries, hotels, retirement and nursing homes, fire brigades, municipalities, industry and trades, and are sold worldwide. The range is complemented by laundry planning, installation, training, rental service, financing and in-factory customer service.
