Oñati, Guipuzcoa, 30 March 2012. Fagor Industrial, a leading Spanish company in end to end solutions for the hotels, restoration and laundry industries, will be present at the new edition of the Texcare trade fair, one of the leading trade fairs in the textile industry, where it will present its latest lines in industrial washing machines and driers. The Texcare trade fair, held in Frankfurt from the 5th to the 9th of May, is considered a reference for the European textile industry, with attendance figures of more than 15,000 professionals. 

Fagor Industrial will present at Texcare its new LN 18 model, the first in the LN low spin laundry range. As well as improved aesthetics, the LN 18 model, as well as all future options that will appear in this range, is more compact, without this reduction in size affecting its performance, and has connections at the rear that facilitate fluid dosage without having to open the machine. Manufactured entirely in stainless steel, it also offers frequency control with an automatic unbalance detection system, safety lock on doors and a drum that can be removed from the front, a function that will also be present in the 13, 18 and 25 kg models.

Texcare will also be the scenario at which Fagor Industrial will present the first models of its new line of driers, with a gas model, an electric model and a third model designed for the self-service sector. 

The new electric dryer SR/E-23 offers a capacity of 23 kg and a remarkable new line with a wide range of options including outer stainless steel panels and a double glass door, which improves insulation from the outside; a new moisture sensor that detects the desired dryness of the clothes and stops the process immediately when such point is reached, which saves on operation time and improves clothes care; a new smart drying system that adapts drum rotation speed to the level of moisture to optimise drying time; an energy recovery system that makes better use of the hot air, making it return axially into the drying circuit. In short, a complete set of optional improvements that allow obtaining reductions of up to 20% in consumption. 

The new line of gas driers starts with the presentation at Texcare of the SR/G-32 MP model, which offers improvements such as new aesthetics, a new electronic control and microprocessor, a larger door, a 20% larger MP control screen and a more economical performance. Finally, the SR/E-10A model has been designed specifically for the self-service sector. As well as sharing the performance and energy savings of the other models, it uses the same coin slot system of the washing machines and can accept coins, tokens and a central payment system.

"The relevance of Texcare and the large amount of professionals that visit the fair and its international scope in the sector make it the ideal setting to present the first models of our new lines of washing machines and driers", states Ion Sotil, the Laundry Product Manager of Fagor Industrial. "Models that have been designed specifically to suit the requirements of the sector, where we have aimed to seek a much more effective energy use without sacrificing performance, as well as a more compact size to make them easier to place, with better access and disassemble of their components to facilitate repair and maintenance works".

Fagor Industrial will be at Texcare International at Stand B51 of Hall 8.0 in the Messe Frankfurt Exhibition Grounds.
