Flame Retardant Workwear

Lindström leverages innovative technology to optimise its uniform laundering services and provide a seamless customer experience.

RFID garment tracking: Each garment collected for washing is equipped with an RFID tag, enabling efficient tracking and sorting throughout the laundry process. This technology streamlines operations, reduces manual labour, and ensures accurate inventory management.

eLindström: Our all-in-one online management tool is a comprehensive digital solution that puts customers in control of their textile services. It provides customers with 24/7 access to their workwear and industrial wiper service accounts. Through eLindström, customers can:

• Track deliveries and products in real-time.
• Make additional orders or refill supply stocks as needed.
• View the status of service requests and orders.
• Access reports and documentation related to their services.
• Manage different delivery locations and employees.
• Gain insights about circulation speed and volumes.

We believe that sustainability in business goes hand-in-hand with success. We are committed to minimising our environmental impact throughout our operations, particularly when it comes to water usage in our uniform laundry service and industrial rag cleaning service.

Our achievements in water conservation

• Reduced water consumption in our workwear laundering services by 50% per washed textile kilogram over the past three decades.
• Implemented water recycling practices in 80% of our laundries, recovering water from rinsing phases and reusing it in the washing process.
• Invested in a semi-automated wastewater treatment and reverse osmosis (RO) plant in Chennai, India, resulting in a 74% water recovery rate and a 56% reduction in freshwater usage.
• Equipped our Bradford wiper laundry with a closed-loop water recycling system that allows us to operate without discharging any wastewater.

Our ongoing efforts

• Continuous improvement of our washing processes to optimise water and energy consumption.
• Collaboration with partners, such as detergent suppliers, to develop innovative solutions for water conservation.
• Active participation in industry-level workgroups to share best practices and promote sustainable water management.
• Strict monitoring of wastewater quality to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.

Flame retardant (FR) workwear is specially designed clothing made from materials that resist ignition and help prevent the spread of flames. It provides an essential layer of protection for employees working near heat, sparks, or open flames.

Renting flame retardant workwear ensures your employees always have compliant, well-maintained garments without the upfront cost of purchasing. It also allows for easy scaling as your workforce changes and guarantees consistent quality and safety standards.

Flame retardant clothing is essential in industries such as oil and gas, utilities, manufacturing, construction, and welding — any environment where workers may be exposed to heat, sparks, or flames.

Garments are regularly inspected and replaced as needed to maintain protection and professional appearance. Replacement schedules depend on usage levels and your specific workplace requirements.

Yes. We can supply flame retardant garments customised with your company’s branding or logo, helping your team maintain a professional image while staying safe and compliant.
