O&L Leisure is well known for their high-quality lodges and hotels. Guests all over the world expect the best standards, which start with flawless bed and table linen and toweling with a soft handle. Carefully selected and exquisitely finished laundry is good advertising for hotel standards. And, at the same time, laundry care is a significant investment. It is therefore all the more important that hotel laundry is long-lasting and durable, underlining care and attention to perfection.

Miele professional machines are custom-made to meet the individual needs, and they offer the perfect solution with optimum economy.

Strand Hotel can now pride themselves with a state of the art laundry. CTS, a complete service from just one source.

Central Technical Supplies was approached by the University of Stellenbosch to take part in a tender to supply a solar resource measurement station to the Namibia University of Science and Technology in Windhoek.

We were successful in winning the tender. The station is based on the Kipp and Zonen Solys 2 sun tracker with CMP 10 Pyranometer and CHP1 Pyrheliometer.

The station is based on the CR1000 logger from Campbell Scientific and measures wind speed and direction as well as ambient temperature, humidity and rain in addition to the solar resource data.

CTS ensures that your system is designed for your requirements.  With our years of experience, we not only install, but also service and maintain the equipment today, and in the years to come.

With our extensive knowledge in sterilization and infection control, CTS installed suitable autoclaves with BSL3 seals.  In addition to the autoclaves, an effluent treatment system was also installed.  This system collects the effluent from the autoclaves, sinks and wash basins, and collects it in one tank.  Once a certain level has been reached, a second tank will collect the effluent, while sterilization begins in the first tank.  In this way, collection of the effluent is not delayed whilst sterilization is being performed in one of the tanks.  Through this system, the highest level of decontamination is achieved, ensuring a safe environment.

CVL is classified as a BSL 3 laboratory.  BSL 3 means a biosafety level of 3.  This is a level of bio-containment precautions, required to isolate dangerous agents, which may cause serious diseases.  This includes various bacteria, viruses and parasites.  CVL required autoclaves with a BSL3 seal approval, as well as an effluent treatment system, to decontaminate a wide range of aqueous liquids.

CTS was awarded the tender to supply, deliver to site, installation, testing and commission of two autoclaves and an effluent treatment system for CVL.

CTS was awarded the tender in February 2010 for Okankolo Health Centre’s laundry.

The scope of the work included the supply, manufacture and assembly, delivery to site, installation, testing, commissioning and maintenance of laundry equipment.

Health Centers have to ensure that their laundry is hygienically clean. Our washing machines have a special sluicing program, which is ideal for blood stained linen and operation gowns. After the sluicing program, washing resumes as normal at higher temperatures, ensuring that all bacteria are destroyed, leaving laundry clean and safe to be used again. Our washers can be equipped with a second drain valve to recycle drain water, making them environmentally friendly.

Using roller ironers further sterilizes the linen; ensuring optimum care is taken for patients as well as Health Center staff.

CTS removed old and obsolete laundry equipment and installed new machines.

The installed equipment consisted of:

1. 2 x new Primus FS40 high speed washer extractors
2. 2 x Maytag energy saving tumble dryers
3. 1 x Miele through-feed drying ironers
4. inculding laundry trolleys, ironing trolleys and other small accessories
