The first half of 2026 reflects the continued confidence that laundries around the
world place in the JENSEN-GROUP: Our revenue for the first half year increased
by 20.2%, amounting to 316.2 MEUR. Also the order intake for the first
semester has reached another strong high, totaling 279.2 MEUR. Despite an
increasingly challenging market environment, the demand for technologies that
strengthen productivity and competitiveness continues to grow. Strong order
intake and revenue growth confirm the strength of our strategy and the trust our
customers place in our people, our technology, and our service organization.
Close to our customers
JENSEN supports customers in virtually every laundry segment. From stand-
alone machines to complete processing lines and fully automated laundry
systems, we help customers find the solution that best fits their business today
while preparing them for tomorrow.
To further strengthen our customer focus, the JENSEN-GROUP organized its
global business into three regions: the Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific and
the Middle East. This regional structure brings decision making closer to our
customers and strengthens collaboration between our sales, service, and
production teams. Combined with our global engineering expertise and
manufacturing footprint, it allows us to combine local support with worldwide
experience.
Driving the next step in automation
Automation is reshaping the laundry industry. Labour shortages, increasing
quality requirements, and the need for greater operational efficiency are
accelerating the demand for smarter production processes.
JENSEN invests in robotics, intelligent software and digital infrastructure to help
customers automate their operations step by step. Whether investing in a single
machine or a fully automated laundry system, customers benefit from solutions
that increase productivity, improve working conditions and deliver measurable
business value.
Following the integration of JENSEN Braun, we are expanding our production
capacity in the United States, making JENSEN the largest producer of heavy-duty
laundry equipment in North America. At the same time, we are strengthening
our recurring service business through MAXI-PRESS, helping customers
maximize uptime, extend equipment lifetime and optimize the performance of
their installations.
“Performance drives competitiveness. Our ambition is to help every customer
build a laundry that is more productive, more reliable and ready for tomorrow.
Whether they invest in a single machine or a fully automated system, we want to
be the partner they can rely on” says Martin Rauch, who was appointed CEO of
JENSEN earlier this year.
Outlook
While geopolitical and economic uncertainties remain, the JENSEN-GROUP
continues to execute its long-term strategy with confidence. With a global
presence, strong local organizations and a complete portfolio ranging from stand
alone machines to fully automated laundry systems, JENSEN is well positioned to
continue shaping the future in laundry automation.
“Our strategy remains unchanged. We continue to invest in innovation,
automation, and our global organization while staying close to our customers in
every region of the world. That combination gives us confidence for the future,”
says Jesper Munch Jensen, CEO of the JENSEN-GROUP.
