Focus on Environmental Protection and Energy Saving – The GXQ Series Fully Enclosed Dry Cleaning Machine Reshapes the New Ecology of Industrial Laundry

Global environmental regulations are getting stricter by the day, and the wave of smart manufacturing is sweeping across industries. Against this dual backdrop, the industrial laundry equipment sector is quietly undergoing a profound shift—from simply “meeting basic needs” to “delivering real value.” As of 2025, China’s washing machinery market had already reached 12.03 billion yuan, with environmentally friendly and intelligent equipment taking an ever-larger share and driving much of the industry’s growth. In this evolving landscape, the GXQ series of fully enclosed, environmentally friendly automatic dry-cleaning machines has emerged as a benchmark, thanks to its strong green credentials and operational efficiency, offering reliable solutions for hotels, hospitals, high-end garment processing, and a range of other professional settings.

Environmental compliance is one of the most pressing pain points in today’s industrial laundry industry. China’s “Emission Standard for Volatile Organic Compounds” clearly requires a solvent recovery rate of at least 95% for dry-cleaning machines. However, many traditional models, limited by outdated technology, typically only achieve 80%–85%. As a result, a growing number of businesses find themselves at risk of fines and penalties. The GXQ series directly addresses this issue by enabling thorough recovery of perchloroethylene (perc), with emissions far below regulatory limits. This not only prevents solvent leakage and associated environmental hazards but also helps companies avoid the cost and liability of hazardous waste disposal.

Since perc is the workhorse solvent in dry cleaning, its recovery efficiency directly impacts both operational costs and environmental performance. By optimizing the distillation and recovery structure, the GXQ series significantly boosts solvent reuse rates. This means businesses spend less on purchasing new solvent while minimizing soil and water pollution risks. For many facilities, this combination of cost savings and compliance support makes passing environmental audits a much smoother process.

Energy efficiency and adaptability to different scenarios are also key battlegrounds for industrial laundry equipment. The GXQ series is equipped with advanced variable-frequency drive technology, which adjusts washing speeds based on fabric type—whether cotton, linen, polyester, or fur. This flexibility ensures effective cleaning while enabling faster dewatering and reducing fabric wear, a crucial advantage when handling high-value garments.

Take fur cleaning as an example. Traditional dry-cleaning machines often struggle with temperature control, which can leave fur stiff, dry, or discolored. The GXQ series tackles this problem with precise refrigeration technology that stabilizes the temperature of the solvent entering the drum. By keeping temperatures in check, it preserves the texture and appearance of delicate furs, expanding the range of services a business can offer.

On the energy front, the GXQ series pairs a high-efficiency refrigeration unit with a heat pump system, leveraging the principles of the reversed Carnot cycle to maximize energy utilization. The result is shorter drying times and lower power consumption—an attractive proposition for businesses looking to cut costs without sacrificing productivity.

Intelligent upgrades have also become an important trend in the industry, and the GXQ series delivers here as well. It features a large, user-friendly touchscreen controller that integrates comprehensive operating functions with a detailed fault-diagnosis system, enabling full automation of the washing process. The intuitive interface reduces training time, so even new operators can get up to speed quickly. More importantly, real-time fault alerts and diagnostic tools help minimize downtime, ensuring continuous operation—an essential requirement for high-throughput environments such as hotel laundries and hospital linen processing facilities.

By putting precise control at the operator’s fingertips, this intelligent design not only enhances safety and convenience but also fine-tunes washing parameters to improve cleaning results and resource efficiency.

Looking ahead, environmental friendliness, intelligence, and customization are widely seen as the three pillars of future growth in industrial laundry equipment. The GXQ series brings these elements together, helping businesses meet stringent regulatory requirements while improving their bottom line through higher efficiency and smarter operation. In doing so, it has become an important driver of the industry’s green transformation.

As a representative of quality equipment in the sector, Guangdong Guangyi has long focused on market needs and leveraged its technical expertise to develop products like the GXQ series that balance performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. By continuing to innovate and refine its offerings, the company is helping more businesses achieve both environmental upgrading and operational improvement—proving that well-designed equipment can create real value for the industry and its customers alike.
