Trackware implemented a revolutionary RFID system for Wasserij Van der Kleij, a leading hotel linen cleaning company in the Netherlands. By integrating RFID technology into their operations, Trackware streamlined the linen inventory management process, enabling automated tracking and efficient dispatch of linens for hotels. The system improved operational efficiency, reduced manual work, and ensured optimal linen stock levels for each hotel.
Wasserij Van der Kleij faced the challenge of managing linen inventory for multiple hotels while maintaining efficiency in the cleaning process. The traditional method of washing small batches of hotel-specific linens was time-consuming and labor-intensive. With the introduction of a linen pool system, where linens of varying qualities are shared among hotels, the need arose for an automated solution to track linen usage, stock levels, and dispatch accuracy.
Trackware developed and integrated an RFID-based system that automates linen tracking from the moment they enter the facility to their dispatch. RFID portals, scan tables, and handheld readers were strategically placed throughout the workflow to capture real-time data on linen inventory. Trackware's custom-built linen dispatcher software continuously calculates the linen levels and automatically generates dispatch orders to maintain stock levels for each hotel. The system works in conjunction with a robot that segregates and directs linens to appropriate washing machines based on their RFID tags, ensuring a smooth, fully automated process.
The RFID system revolutionized Wasserij Van der Kleij’s operations. It significantly reduced manual labor, improved inventory accuracy, and streamlined the dispatch process. Hotels are now guaranteed consistent linen stock levels, and the automated tracking system provides valuable insights into linen losses. The new process ensures a continuous, efficient workflow, allowing Wasserij Van der Kleij to serve its clients more effectively and maintain operational excellence.
