In 2018, the JENSEN-GROUP acquired a participation of 30% in Inwatec ApS, a Danish company that manufactures high-end heavy-duty laundry products.
In 2021, the JENSEN-GROUP increased its shareholding by 40%. This investment in laundry robotics and AI (Artificial Intelligence) confirms the Group’s vision to automate all processes in the laundry.
Inwatec spans a bridge between JENSEN’s current offering in laundry solutions and Industry 4.0. Founded in 2009 in Odense/Denmark, Inwatec is active in more than 25 countries and employs 50 staff around the globe. The core competence of Inwatec is in the field of automation, complementing the existing JENSEN product range. Find out more about Inwatec and its great team of laundry nerds on the Inwatec website!
In the same way as JENSEN values operational efficiency and safety, Inwatec also focuses on these aspects by creating a safer and more efficient working environment. Inwatec has developed an X-ray machine running with AI software that selects and rejects garments carrying foreign items. Thanks to the X-ray technology, harmful objects such as pencils or tweezers can be removed and the eventuality of stab wounds or damage to the laundry equipment is nil. Complete automation systems for laundries processing mats range from the sorting area to the packaging and storage area. Also the robot, based on 3D camera technology, separating garments and small items at high speed is a great complement for JENSEN’s current offering to laundries handling garments.
The engineers of Inwatec closely co-operate with the engineering departments within JENSEN to develop new solutions and services for heavy-duty laundries.
