The latest additions to Electrolux's Generation 4000 line of appliances are claimed to be the only professional washer-dryers in Europe.
The two models, with 6.5kg and 12kg load capacities, are designed to save space and time.
Although they combine washing and drying, both functions can be used separately. Staff simply load the laundry, press the start button and return when the task is complete.
A smart user interface using Compass Controls technology allows operators to select a programme from the wash library that ensures the right programme is used to minimise energy, water and time.
There are three settings - Economy, Performance (for higher-quality wash programmes) and Time, which reduces the length of the cycle - along with a quick-start button that can be set for the most-used programmes.
The washer-dryers also provide a voice guidance system giving vocal instructions to users for settings where elderly or disabled people are accommodated.
Instead of drawing air from outside, the dryer uses an energy-saving patented system that forces the air from within the room to pass over the drum in conjunction with a heat-exchange process.
