LG Electronics is expanding its presence in the commercial laundry market with the launch of the LG Professional Laundry lineup. The company offers the new products to a wide range of commercial sectors: from retail and industrial laundry to hospitality and healthcare. LG Professional Laundry debuted in July in Europe, with launches to follow in Asia and North America.
Enhanced operational efficiency
The new lineup aims to improve operational efficiency, offering large-capacity washers and dryers designed to handle high-volume workloads. For example, based on an IEC standard seven-kilogram load, the LG Professional WasherDryer can complete a washing and drying cycle in around one hour. This solution features AI Weight Detection to optimize water and energy use according to load size, while the Dual Inverter HeatPump enables energy-efficient, low-temperature drying. Besides, the ductless design also eliminates ductwork installation and maintenance, improving flexibility and reducing overheads for business owners.
A look at the technologies
LG Professional Laundry incorporates advanced technologies. In particular, the Dynamic Ball-Core System uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect drum imbalances in real time while a ball balancer stabilizes the load to minimize vibrations. This system enables stable operation at spin speeds of up to 1,100 RPM. The high-speed spin also improves water extraction, helping reduce drying time, energy consumption and noise.
Besides, applied to the lineup’s dryers (including the washer-dryer), Sensor Dry helps reduce over-drying. This feature adjusts and optimizes drying time based on accurate moisture-level detection. In addition, Wet Cleaning with MotionCare provides specialized care for delicate fabrics across both washing and drying cycles. It begins by delivering a gentle wash and completes the process with a low-temperature drying cycle that uses precise drum movements to help mitigate the risk of fabric damage.
Simplified maintenance and intelligent management
LG Professional Laundry solutions are engineered for durability and ease of maintenance. The Front Service Ready design provides easy access to key components, making servicing simpler and faster and reducing downtime. The lineup also presents features such as Heat Exchanger Cleaning Assist and the Tub Clean cycle. The former automatically rinses the heat exchanger after each cycle while the latter has been verified by Intertek to significantly reduce bacteria in the washer drum, helping maintain the internal cleanliness of the machines.
Besides, LG Professional Laundry appliances make it quick and easy for users to select and adjust cycles and settings thanks to the intuitive ProGuide Control, a circular seven-inch LCD touch display. Another useful tool is the LaundryCrew app that enables remote monitoring of equipment status, operational data and machine settings. It also supports software updates and system management, enabling business owners and managers to oversee their laundry solutions and overall operations more effectively. In addition, LG’s Open API can be integrated with existing business systems (through a separate system development process initiated post product purchase). This allows customers to build tailored platforms and further expand their operational capabilities.
