Koudekerk aan den Rijn, 1 September 2020 – CleanLease, a Dutch-Belgian group specialised in the rental and maintenance of textiles for health care and holiday parks, has taken over its sector partner Wasserij Gaverland. CleanLease is mainly active in hospitals, residential care centres and holiday parks and has about 20 specialised laundries in Belgium and the Netherlands. After the earlier acquisitions of Malysse in Belgium and Lips+ in the Netherlands in 2019, CleanLease has further developed into a leading player in its sector.
Wasserij Gaverland specialises in the maintenance of personal goods for people staying in residential care centres and psychiatric hospitals. With about 200 employees in one Belgian branch and two branches in the Netherlands, they realise a turnover of 16 million euros.
The healthcare market has changed dramatically in recent years. The supply of hire linen, the processing of service clothing and the maintenance of personal laundry are increasingly linked. CleanLease and Wasserij Gaverland find each other a reliable partner. Gaverland customers will be able to enjoy the absolute expertise and variety of CleanLease in the field of linen for hire, service clothing and personal laundry. CleanLease customers will benefit from Gaverland’s years of experience and “know how” in the field of maintaining personal laundry.
With the acquisition of Wasserij Gaverland, CleanLease confirms its ambition to further specialise in the treatment of personal items.
Together, CleanLease and Gaverland will have better opportunities to structurally invest in modernisation and in the development of innovative products and services for their customers. With a perfect spread of its branches across Belgium and the Netherlands, CleanLease is always close to its customers and can offer a more sustainable and efficient service thanks to this coverage ratio.
