HOP INN Laundry efficiency Innovation for Sustainable
Hop Inn Hotels, a budget-friendly hotel chain under the Erawan Group, continuously improves its work processes and cost management while maintaining high service standards that meet the highest hotel industry standards. This creates a lasting impression for customers from all segments.
In August 2022, Hop Inn Hotels conducted a laundry process test to enhance the process and cost efficiency. The test involved changing the laundry detergent from 4 types to 6 types, all washed at a temperature of 50 degrees Celsius. The results showed an average cost reduction of 25% in laundry expenses.
Furthermore, in November 2022, Hop Inn Hotels expanded the previous test (using 6 types of laundry detergent at 50 degrees Celsius) by maintaining the same 6 types of detergent but reducing the temperature to 40 degrees Celsius. The test revealed that the cleanliness of the laundry remained comparable to before while achieving a 36% reduction in electricity and water consumption.
These continuous improvements in work processes and cost management contribute to Hop Inn Hotels' ability to present a strong and efficient portfolio, making them capable of accepting projects from other major corporations. Moreover, regular assignment of tasks also helps to enhance the skills of team members and improves overall work control.
