Hotel Linen Supply Programs

One linen list dyed to one standard delivered to a handover date

Overview

Why This Programme Exists

A hotel linen order is a list, not a product: guest room towels in three sizes, pool towels, bath mats, robes, sometimes slippers. The order succeeds or fails on whether that list arrives together, matches, and holds its weight after the first hundred wash cycles.

Stage By Stage

The 8 Stages And What Goes Wrong At Each One

Each stage names the risk before it names the answer, because that is the order a buyer meets them in.

Linen list and quantities

Problem. Par levels decide the quantity, and the wrong par level shows up as a shortage in week two.

How we handle it. We work from your room count, turn frequency and laundry cycle to build the list rather than quoting a single item.

Benchmark matching

Problem. New stock has to sit beside the towels already in service.

How we handle it. Send a current towel and we match its shade and weight rather than proposing our own standard.

Sample approval

Problem. Housekeeping judges the towel, purchasing signs the order.

How we handle it. Samples go to the property so the people who handle the linen daily approve it before bulk.

One dye lot

Problem. Pieces dyed at different times drift apart visually.

How we handle it. The list is dyed against one approved lab dip so the whole property looks consistent.

Production and weight control

Problem. Weight loss is the quiet failure in hotel linen.

How we handle it. Finished weight is checked against the approved sample before packing.

Packing to a property specification

Problem. A linen delivery has to be counted into a store room, not unpacked and sorted.

How we handle it. Cartons are packed and labelled to a fixed count so receiving can check without opening every bag.

Documents

Problem. Group procurement policies usually require compliance evidence on file.

How we handle it. Oeko-Tex Standard 100 for the fabric and BSCI and SEDEX on the social side travel with the order.

Reorder cycle

Problem. Replacement runs continuously once the property is open.

How we handle it. The approved reference is kept so replacement stock matches the opening order.

Outcome

What You Get At The End

  • The full linen list arrives in one shipment dyed to one standard
  • Housekeeping approves the towel before the order is placed
  • Weight is verified so replacement rates stay predictable
  • Replacement orders match the opening stock

Questions About Hotel Linen Programs

Can you match the towels we already use?
Yes. Send one piece of your current stock and we match shade and weight against it at the lab dip and sampling stage.
How far ahead of an opening should we order?
45 days production after the order plus sea freight, and sample approval before that. Three to four months ahead is a realistic plan.
Can robes and mats be included?
Yes. Bathrobes, bath mats and guest towels can be produced on one order and dyed together where the colour has to match.
How should we set par levels?
Base them on room count and how often linen turns, not on the delivery quantity. Tell us both and we will size the order with you.
What compliance documents come with the order?
Oeko-Tex Standard 100 on the fabric, with BSCI and SEDEX covering the social audit side.
