Hotels And Hospitality Groups
Hotel buyers replace linen on a rolling cycle and judge a supplier on whether the third delivery still matches the first. That is a specification problem before it is a price problem.
Where It Goes Wrong
- A reorder that no longer matches the linen already in the rooms
- Towels that lose loft and absorbency after the first industrial laundry cycle
- Robes ordered in a colour that the housekeeping team cannot replace mid-season
- Part deliveries that leave a floor of rooms half made up
What Buyers Need
- A reference sample held at the factory so the next run matches the last
- Weave and construction agreed in writing rather than by photograph
- Colour continuity across bed linen, towels and robes bought at different times
- Packing counts that suit a linen store rather than a retail shelf
Typical Situations
- Opening stock for a new build hotel or serviced apartment block
- Rolling replacement of bed linen across an existing estate
- Spa and leisure areas that need robes and towelling in a house colour
- Serviced apartments that need bedding and kitchen items in the same shipment

Can EVT match linen we already have in the rooms?
Send a cutting of the existing linen or the original spec sheet. The factory quotes against that physical reference and keeps it for the reorder.
Do you supply towels and bed linen on the same order?
Yes. Bed linen and bath textiles come from the same textile base, so they can be combined into one order and one shipment.
What packing suits a hotel linen store?
Bulk polybag and carton packing is the usual choice. Retail style individual packaging is available but adds cost that a linen store does not need.
