About Us
We are proud to lead the industry in sustainability. As Manitoban's we are always looking for ways to look after the Province we are lucky enough to call home.
As a family owned company, we are proud of our Manitoba roots and remain committed to serving the people and businesses of this province.
It takes a full team effort to reach the high quality service our customers have come to expect. While we would love to talk about each individual, we would prefer you meet them in person. Come in for a plant tour today!
A commitment to service since 1911. We strive to meet the needs of Manitoba businesses and organizations for the past 100+ years and the next 100+ years.
Our goal is to provide uniforms, mat, linen, and facility service solutions to our customers in the most sustainable way possible. From lowering the amount of water, chemicals, and energy we use per washed garment to investing in a state-of-the-art wastewater recycling plant we are proud to lead the industry in sustainability. We also realize there is always more we can do to look after our province. Here are some highlights of our growing list of environmentally friendly solutions we have implemented:
Operating a state of the art waste water treatment system to reduce water usage by over 80% with nearly 100% being filtered before being discharged
Using eco-friendly wash chemicals
Reducing natural gas consumption by over 30% through heat reclamation
Implementing a hard-to-recycle program and compost program for our entire team to help reduce waste at work and at home
Participating in environment Q-Crew events
Repurposing retired garments and mats
Upgrading all our lighting throughout the building to high efficiency LED lights
Collect and recycle pens found in garments before they enter the wash
