initial situation

  • Berendsen developed the Etage as an initiative to improve flexibility, logistics, and planning, as well as to enhance the working environment.
  • Etage is a system that uses an IN/OUT method, in which one module trolley is provided for the IN area and one module trolley for the OUT area.
  • The modules consist of two connected trolleys, the first of which is used to store (new or used) laundry and the second to store products, clean glasses, and brochures.
  • The carts are prepared by Berendsen, which immediately saves time for housekeeping.
  • The advantages of this system are numerous and comprehensive— good hygiene without mixing used and new laundry, pre-packed carts, waste sorting at source, and time savings when processing each room, as no prior sorting is required.
