In the science lab and medical room, Miele glassware washers offer high-grade disinfection, time after time. Infectious bugs are inactivated. Harmful solvents are replaced by water. Automated cleaning reduces breakages - and potential injuries.

In laundry and janitorial rooms, Miele washers and dryers clean muddy sports kits, mop heads and dirty lab coats with equal finesse. Miele Professional’s education range offers features such as drainage valves, and fabrics washed to sterile standards including EN ISO 15883. Whatever solution you choose, the sums always add up, because Miele’s economy is in a league of its own.

Wellington College is a British co-educational boarding and day independent school in the village of Crowthorne in Berkshire. Wellington is a registered charity and currently has just over 1000 pupils aged between 13 and 18.

In 2011, Wellington College approached Miele Professional through an existing relationship with James Holmes at SLS, now part of WASHCO, and it was soon discovered that Miele’s products suited the College’s needs better than the existing machines. Not only that, but the service offered by the German brand was exactly what the College had been looking for.

They had their first washing machine installed two years ago and recently installed 6 x PW6167 16kg washing machines, 1 x PT8407 16kg dryer, 5 x PT8507 20kg dryers and 1 x PM1421 ironer installed. They are moving towards exclusively using Miele machines.

Julie Hollingworth, Laundry Manager at Wellington College, commented: “The programmes available are far superior to what was offered with our previous machines. Overall, the machines are better all round – they are more efficient to use, more energy efficient and save on our water bills too.”

“The best thing about deciding to go with Miele machines is the ease of use, the programmes available for your every whim and the overall quality and speed of the machines. We would definitely recommend Miele professional. If we ever need parts for the machines we know we can get these easily, we receive excellent service and have great quality machines. I couldn’t fault them.”

Miele Professional is at the forefront of innovation and customer service is always the priority. Whether it’s saving on energy bills or fitting machines into an awkward space, the German brand has expertise and advice to help with all requirements.
