The process is aimed chiefly at improving the hand and removing wrinkles. DECITEX: One tenth of a tex. DECORTICATING: A mechanical process for separating the woody matter from the bast fiber of such plants as ramie and hemp. DEEP-DYEING VARIANTS: Polymers that have been chemically modified to increase their dyeability. Fibers and fabrics made therefrom can be dyed to very heavy depth. DEFECTS: A general term that refers to some flaw in a textile product that detracts from either performance or appearance properties.

  • Architect Laundry Planning File
    ARCHITECT LAUNDRY PLANNING FILE B22SL05006/14504 Laundry Systems for hotels and motels WHY INSTALL AN ON-PREMISES LAUNDRY? 1. Launder everything on premises. A MILNOR on-premises laundry can handle all of a hotel/motel's clean fabric needs in a simple manner. MILNOR washer-extractors can process bath and bed linens, blankets, pillows, restaurant and banquet napery, and kitchen linen, plus such items as employee uniforms, slip covers and cleaning rags and mops. Many types of rugs and drapes can be processed in a MILNOR on-premises laundry. 2. Distinctive linens build prestige. Many hotel and motel operators have enhanced their image of quality through tasteful fabric selection. Everything from linen to drapes can be selected in the colors and patterns of your choice. 3. Get more use from less inventory. An on-premises laundry provides more use from less inventory. Table napery, bath linen, and other goods can be laundered immediately after use and be ready again in about an hour if necessary. Smaller inventories mean less storage space and more money for investment elsewhere. 4. You won't be caught short. On-premises laundering eliminates "caught short" situations. It gives you a ready supply of towels, sheets, napkins, tablecloths, and uniforms. This is especially important during weekends and holidays, when outside services are not available. 5. Control quality, sanitation. On-premises laundering assures quality processing because you are in control. You can prolong fabric life by using a distinct formula for the specific degree of soil. MILNOR's E-P Plus® washer-extractors make this easy, with several specific formulas developed and field-tested by chemists for hotels and motels.

It might be a place where the men or children wash, where the laundry and other work is done or where the hot water tank and .furnace are placed. For some farm families the utility room might be used for such things as, sorting eggs, cleaning vegetables, cutting meat and separting milk. Many such jobs clutter the kitchen or make extra steps to the basement.· I n planning a utility room, first make a list of the things you want to do in the room. Then opposite each job list the equipment and materials needed to do the job efficiently. Include things you do not yet have, so that there will be a place for them when you add them to your household.

Received: 25 April 2014; in revised form: 3 June 2014 / Accepted: 9 June 2014 / Published: 16 June 2014 Abstract: The way in which we plan and produce buildings today will influence our energy consumption in the future. This paper explores how the types of laundry facilities provided in owner-occupied multi-family buildings in Sweden have changed since the 1990s and seeks to draw attention to how this may impact energy consumption for laundry. Three factors are analyzed that influence energy consumption: the number of laundry appliances, energy performance in laundry appliances and user demand for laundry. The results indicate that there has been a change in building practices, from the domination of communal laundry rooms towards in-unit laundry facilities. The findings imply that the changes in provision of laundry facilities increase the number of appliances but do not necessarily increase energy consumption during the usage phase depending on energy performance and user behavior. Thus, developers should consider laundry facility organization when designing multi-family buildings in order to optimize the use of space and resources, given user demand and building regulations.
