Oxwash recently announced to indefinitely pause its direct-to-consumer service. The decision was made to be able to focus operations and technology on reducing the impact of commercial laundry services. Their services in this respect have had a positive effect on businesses trying to make their operations more sustainable.
Oxwash was founded in 2018 to reduce the environmental footprint of laundry from domestic customers. They operated by cutting back on water, fuel and harmful chemicals uses in Oxford and by employing the most sustainable laundering options available. At the same time they extended the strategy to pedal-powered delivery and pick-up and moved on to electric vehicles as the company grew bigger. Over the past five years it has grown its business, serving thousands of customers and businesses across various industries and locations.
With the launch of its new large-scale facility, ‘Big Blue’, the company is supporting healthcare, hospitality, fashion, leisure, and more industries by continuing to build and optimise a service that fits with their requirements. For established domestic customers in London, the company has partnered with Laundryheap to provide an alternative solution. Both businesses share values of sustainability, quality, and convenience through their 24-hour delivery services.
