Market Overview

ARCO/Murray partners with commercial laundry owners and operators to build and expand facilities that support high-volume textile processing. Our experience includes uniform rental plants, healthcare laundries, and hospitality linen operations, where soil-to-clean flow, equipment selection, and utility demand define the building.

Commercial laundry facilities are driven by throughput, turnaround time, and labor efficiency. Production flows from soil sort through washing, drying, finishing, and clean-side handling, which drives layout, adjacencies, and separation between soil and clean operations. These facilities are utility-intensive, requiring coordinated steam, hot water, drainage, chemical systems, and electrical infrastructure to support consistent production at scale.

 

Our Approach

We approach commercial laundry projects with a focus on how the facility will operate day to day. Soil-to-clean flow, equipment layout, and throughput targets are established early and used to inform building configuration, structural systems, and utility infrastructure. This ensures the facility is aligned with production requirements before construction begins.

Our integrated design-build model brings process mechanical, electrical, and construction teams together from the outset. This allows us to coordinate steam systems, hot water generation, drainage, chemical delivery, and power distribution with equipment requirements and installation sequencing. Early alignment reduces rework, avoids utility conflicts, and supports efficient installation of large-scale processing systems.

Because laundry facilities are highly dependent on consistent utilities and material flow, we prioritize coordination between process requirements and building systems throughout design and construction. This includes planning for routing, access, and future capacity so facilities can maintain throughput and adapt as volumes, equipment, and automation needs evolve.

 

  • Facility Design Aligned to Operations
    Soil-to-clean flow, throughput targets, and equipment requirements are defined early and used to drive layout, adjacencies, and overall building configuration.

     

     

  • Coordinated Utilities and Infrastructure
    Steam, hot water, drainage, chemical systems, and power are integrated with equipment and building systems to support reliable, high-volume operations.

     

     

  • Single Point of Accountability With Design-Build
    One team manages design, procurement, and construction, maintaining alignment across equipment, utilities, and building systems from concept through completion.

     

     

  • More Predictable Project Delivery
    Early coordination and an integrated team structure reduce rework, minimize conflicts, and maintain schedule control.

     

     

“ARCO/Murray has been a trusted HandCraft partner since beginning our first project together in 2008. There is a clear understanding of each other’s businesses, goals, and expectations, and they have proven themselves to be an important asset as we expand our business. We have consistently seen our projects delivered on time, within budget, and with the quality we expect and we look forward to building additional facilities with ARCO/Murray”
