FAQs
Animal Care Sector
What's different to the machines that go to the Animal Sector?
Depending on the usage, machines can vary significantly. For example, washing machines for horse rugs require rigid mount machines bolted to the floor to avoid spinning issues with heavy items. Certain brands are known for reliability in specific sectors, such as the Miele Professional little giants with a proven track record in veterinary practices.
Washing winter coats, numnahs & bandages for your horse rug business?
At Gillman’s Commercial, we offer machines designed for washing equine products, including auto dosing with products like Nikwax. For horse rugs, we recommend machines with a capacity of around 18kg, allowing for easy loading and multiple coats. Our machines are rigidly mounted and must be bolted to solid concrete (at least 150mm). Our expert team can provide on-site advice with no obligation.
Can you maintain my existing machines?
With over 55 years of experience in laundry there are few machines we have not worked on, so the answer is most probably yes.
We can offer numerous options around service and maintenance, why not contact us and we can send one of our team to your site and provide a no obligation quote for service and maintenance, we are partners for many of the leading brands so as long as parts are still available we can look after them.
Do you have experience in Veterinary practices?
As Miele and Electrolux partners we deal with some of the biggest veterinary groups such as Medivet, IVC and CVS as well as many small independent practices, regardless of size we can offer not only the correct machine to provide clean & infection free laundry but also the service to back it up.
