How does Lindström Mats service help to keep your facilities safe and hygiene?
With the help of our rental mat service, your facilities stay constantly clean and presentable. Our rental mat service is optimised to your needs and helps you reduce cleaning time in your facilities. The image of your company grows stronger when your premises are presentable and clean.
Our mats are also designed taken into consideration fire safety, so they are suitable for all facilities and companies from hotels to shopping centres, and offices to residence buildings.
Since mats are efficient in stopping dirt and moisture, they are a significant safety factor also beyond fire safety. Stopping dirt and moisture starts with an entrance mat that stops even the heaviest of dirt. Correct mats in correct places also prevent slips and enhances safety at work.
Our ergonomic mats are suited to all kinds of standing work from welding to offices, since they lighten the load on the employees and promote occupational well-being. Ergonomic mats also prevent slips in many places, for example in kitchens and auto shops.

Isn’t it cheaper to buy mats?
As a one-time purchase, taking the plunge and buying your own mats might seem like a good option. However with our rental mat service , it is always easy and affordable to keep your building clean, floors protected, and people comfortable.
We take care of everything, from finding the right mats for your company to ensuring that they are cleaned and delivered on a regular basis. We also help with storage and final disposal.
Just marvel at your clean, stylish and comfortable premises, while we make the most of your mats.
add
How does Mats service help with budget control and customised to my needs?
Our service is suitable for companies of all sizes, because it is very cost efficient. You only pay a small monthly service fee, based on how many mats you have in use and how often they are changed. Also, choosing the right mats can save your cleaning cost.
Our service is flexible to sudden changes in demand, for example during seasonal changes. During wet season you can have your mats changed more often than during summer months. You can make adjustments to your service any time 24/7 on our online service portal eLindström or by calling our customer service.
add
Can I have my own customised mats?
Of course – our design mats service is exactly what you need! You can choose the colors, patterns and messages you like. We will help you with choosing the right colors and the final look of the mats.
Our design mats are available in a variety of sizes and shapes. Shaped design mats can be used to make the interior look more impressive and build the company brand. We produce your mats and take care of the service in the same way as with standard mats.

We wash and maintain your workwear weekly. At our laundry, we check all the workwear and repair them, if necessary, according to your company standards. Any damaged workwear we replace with new garments on the next delivery.
Delivery and storage

History slider
1848 Lindström is established
Carl August Lindström established Lindström in 1848. At the beginning, the company operated as a textile dyeing house in Helsinki in the area of the current Parliament House. In the 1880s, the dyeing house was complemented by a laundry providing a new service called dry cleaning. The shop was named C. A. Lindström & Son.
Growth started in the 1890s
Due to the generation change that took place in 1891, Lindström’s name was changed to W. E. Lindström and strong expansion began. By 1913, the company’s personnel had increased from a few family members to 55 employees and it had moved to larger premises in Helsinki.
Company acquisition and new owner in the 1920s
In 1922, W. E. Lindström Oy’s share capital was purchased by Uusi Pesula Oy, specialising in white laundry, whose principal shareholder was Chief Engineer Johan Roiha. The company became one of the largest actors in the field in the Nordic countries.
Textile renting begins in the 1930s
Small-scale textile renting operations were launched in the 1930s. The company rented linen, sheets, table cloths and napkins as well as doctor and barber’ coats for its customers. In 1939, the company laundered 2.4 million kilos of textiles and its number of employees had increased to 300.
Shortages in the 1940s require improvisation
Steam production required continuous heating of the boilers and, due to the fuel shortage, firewood was used for heating. The daily firewood consumption was 70 m³, and the company purchased standing forest to satisfy its fuel need.
Investment in clothing renting increases in the 1950s
Even though the share of private laundry in the company’s turnover was over 80%, Manager Eino Roiha saw the company’s future as increasingly linked to the renting of workwear and textiles. The decision was also furthered by a new fabric type developed in the USA that required no ironing or pressing.
Renting of towel roll dispensers in the 1960s
In 1965, Lindström started to rent out towel roll dispensers. At the same time, the share of private laundry started to decline, mostly due to the availability of automatic home washing machines.
Rental mats in the 1970s
In 1971, the mat rental operations were launched. Three years later, Lindström acquired its competitors Lainatekstiilit Oy and Cleaner Oy, thus strengthening its market position as a company providing rental services of workwear, towel roll dispensers and mats. The operations of the textile dyeing house were discontinued due to poor demand and profitability.
Concentration and internationalisation in the 1990s
The company gave up its cleaning and waste management operations as well as laundry shops and concentrated on textile renting. In 1992, Lindström established its first subsidiary in Estonia. This was followed by the establishments of subsidiaries in Russia (1993), Hungary (1994), Latvia (1994), the Czech Republic (1996), Lithuania (1998), Slovakia (1998) and Slovenia (1998).
Patent on modular laundries in the early 2000s
In autumn 2002, Lindström’s internationally unique innovation, the modular laundry, was granted a patent. In the early 2000s, Comforta Oy, specialising in hotel textiles, was established. In 2005, Lindström acquired Vision Design Oy, specialising in corporate textiles and PR products, and expanded its corporate clothing offering to personal protective equipment.
Asian business operations launched in 2006
Lindström continued its strong internationalisation in the 2000s. In Europe, operations were expanded to the United Kingdom (2001), Germany (2002), Poland (2002), Sweden (2002), Romania (2005), Ukraine (2006), Türkiye (2007) and Bulgaria (2008). In 2006, the operations were expanded to Asia when a subsidiary was established in China and, a year later, in India.
Additional growth in the 2010s
In 2011, Lindström expanded its operations to Belarus and Croatia. The subsidiaries in Serbia and Kazakhstan started in 2014. In 2015, Lindström continued its service globalization by establishing a subsidiary in South Korea.
Building a global network for Prodem
Lindström opened its first Prodem factory in Latvia 2017. Since then, Prodem factories have also been opened in India 2018 and in Hungary 2020.
Prodem is a unique workwear manufacturing concept where workwear is produced only based on customer orders and demand. Our unique Prodem concept reduces the environmental impact as the products are manufactured for the real need and nearby customer to minimize both transportation and warehousing needs. Faster deliveries means a better customer experience.
Lindström celebrating 170 years
In 2018, Lindström celebrated its 170th anniversary throughout the whole year and in all the Group´s locations together with its employees and customers.
The 2020s begins with changes
In 2020, Lindström accelerated its future growth in Asia by acquiring the Chinese operations of Cintas, the world´s biggest textile services company. After also acquiring Alsco´s operations in Shanghai, Suzhou, and Guangzhou in 2022, Lindström became the only international textile service operator in the fast-growing Chinese market.
The year 2022 also marked time of relinquishment, when – as a result of Russia´s war of aggression in Ukraine – Lindström announced its withdrawal from business in both Russia and Belarus.

Property Manager, Taloyhtiöpalvelut – Onnistutaan Ky

Customer Manager, Linnan Kiinteistökehitys
"We can clean up things much faster than with the ordinary rags that we used earlier. We had to use vast amounts of them before the equipment was clean."

"Our daily communication works well, and we are very pleased with the service. If we have any needs or feedback, Lindström reacts to them right away."
Valtteri Lyytikäinen

Acting Hotel Manager, Clarion Hotel Helsinki Airport
Lindström seemed like a natural choice to be our service provider because we knew that they pay a lot of attention to ecological sustainability in their operations. Napkins made of plastic are a great example of waste reuse and saving energy.
