LG Philippines affirms its commitment to build a better community with its recent CSR initiative in Iloilo. The activity was spearheaded by LG, together with Mark Vincent Fabresis from ML Laundry Equipment and Supply and BigWash. 2 sets of Giant C Max and 2 sets of Titan C Max washers and dryers were donated to West Visayas State University Medical Center (WVSU-MC) in Region VI, modernizing their laundry facilities. The turnover event, held on July 20, 2023, was attended by representatives from WVSU-MC, LG, and BigWash, highlighting the collective effort to enhance healthcare services in the region.

LG commercial washing machines can be a game-changer for hospitals, offering numerous benefits that streamline their laundry operations and improve overall efficiency. With their advanced technology and large capacity, these machines can handle the high volume of laundry generated, including bed linens, towels, and staff uniforms.

Powering both the Giant C Max and the Titan C Max machines is LG’s Inverter Direct Drive. Unlike the traditional belt and pulley, the LG Commercial Laundry drum is directly attached to the motor providing superior durability and reliability. Less parts equal less repairs.Even with its size and large capacity, the noise of both models are also greatly reduced. Multiple dampers absorb vibration and reduce noise creating a quieter washing environment.

Blessing of the Hospital laundry area

The washing machine donations provided tremendous help for the medical center, which serves as a laboratory for the College of Medicine, Nursing, and Dentistry. Dr. Gelito of West Visayas State University Medical Center shares, “I was elated (of the donations). Laundry services is a backline service of the hospital. Yet it is an important service because we’re able to provide clean linens and sheets. With these donations, it will lighten the load of our personnel.” Mr. Fabresis mentions that we he heard about LG and BigWash’s project in one of the hospitals in Manila, he also hoped that he can do something for the Ilonggos at the WVSU.

Going into detail, Ms. Marylouie Gatuz, Product Marketing Manager for Commercial Laundry, discusses “Both machines help keep the hospital linens fresh, crisp, and germ-free. The Giant C-Max is equipped with a two-step hygiene care laundry system. The first step ensures that our machines are sanitized before, during, and after each load, while the second step is meant to sanitize your fabrics, killing 99.99% of germs and viruses. With this technology, the day-to-day laundry operations of West Visayas State University Medical Center has been a breeze.” Ms. Janille Umali, B2B Assistant Marketing Communications Manager of LG, speaking about the donations, stated “It is important that we go back to one of LG's core values, which is human-centered innovation. We chose to focus on health and hygiene because we believe that these are the two things that help the healthcare industry thrive.”

Maxi Clean Laundromat Underscores Importance of Product Trust in Starting a Business

With any business, the foundation of trust is important. You have to believe your employees, your partners, and of course, the products or services you’re providing. It’s crucial that you can stand behind the product wholeheartedly because if trust erodes, it will be almost impossible to repair.

This foundation of trust is how sisters Claire and Minette started the successful Maxi Clean Laundromat chain in the province of Bulacan. Before everything else, they looked for a business partner that they already know and can rely on. Minette gives her own experience with LG washing machines as an example. “We chose LG because we have an LG washing machine at home that we’ve been using for ten years already. When we started the business, we went for machines that we know are reliable.”

Manny Villagracia, Minette’s husband, handles the technical side of things of the business and is all smiles with how he can manage the machines remotely. “I can diagnose, troubleshoot, and monitor the day to day operations and even assist our laundry care experts to troubleshoot the machine anytime anywhere.” And it’s not just Manny who is happy with the LG Commercial Machines’ wi-fi capabilities. With the Laundry Lounge app, customers can reserve the machines, monitor their laundry, and even do contactless payment with the touch of a button. This gives customers the freedom to choose which machines they want with the specific time span they need. Manny shares how important this feature is. “LG empowers your customer base as if it's their own machine. (It gives them) power at their fingertips”.

When asked about their experience about starting a laundry business, their common answer boils down to trust. You have to find a brand to be your partner for the long run. Minette underscores this point, saying “Choose a brand you can trust because they will deliver in their promise of helping your business.”
