LG Electronics is strengthening its presence in the European B2B market by supplying large-capacity laundry machines to the German commercial laundry solutions company Schilling. The company aims to meet the commercial laundry demands of hotels, hospitals, and nursing facilities by offering a bundled solution that includes not only product sales but also installation, operation, and maintenance.
On October 25, LG Electronics announced that it will supply its 'LG Professional' large-capacity commercial laundry machines to Schilling next month. Schilling is a distribution and installation specialist that provides laundry equipment and solutions to laundromats and laundry services across Germany.
The LG Professional machines feature AI capabilities that analyze the weight of laundry to optimize water usage and drying conditions. They also include a gyro sensor that detects imbalances in the drum, reducing vibrations and noise while minimizing wear on components.
As of September this year, LG Electronics' sales of commercial laundry equipment in Europe have increased by approximately 20% compared to the same period last year.
Since July, LG has been gradually launching six models of the 'LG Professional' series, ranging from 20 to 30 kg, expanding its customer base to include not only large laundromats but also hotels, hospitals, and nursing facilities.
LG Electronics also participated in the 'EXPO Detergo International 2026,' which opened on October 23 in Milan, Italy. The company set up a booth more than twice the size of its previous exhibition, showcasing a variety of products ranging from 10 kg to 30 kg capacities.
Additionally, LG introduced its 'Laundry Crew' management solution, which allows operators to remotely control multiple machines and utilize error notifications and diagnostic features. For companies with separate management systems, LG provides APIs to integrate with their own solutions.
LG is also expanding its business in North America and Asia. The volume supplied to the U.S. commercial laundry solutions company CSC ServiceWorks has more than doubled compared to last year. In Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam, LG is enhancing partnerships with local distribution channels.
Changwoo Son, head of LG Electronics' Living Solutions Division, stated, "We will rapidly grow in the global B2B laundry market by leading with our high-efficiency commercial laundry machines and management solutions."
