Oxwash Sustainability Actions

Built Big Blue I facility

Oxwash has built one of the most advanced and sustainable laundry facilities in the world — Big Blue I in Swindon — powered by proprietary technology, science, and relentless innovation.

Uses heat recapture and recycling

From advanced heat recapture and energy management to microfibre filtration and closed-loop water recycling, Oxwash has redefined what’s possible in textile care.

Operates on renewable energy

The ‘Big Blue 1’ site operated by Oxwash is run entirely on renewable energy and biogas. Operations at the site are environmentally sustainable, including the entire process from packaging used to transport laundered items, to power for their electric vans and e-cargo bikes.

Uses wet cleaning techniques

Big Blue 1 also uses wet cleaning techniques which drastically reduce water and energy consumption as well as filtering out plastic microfibres, setting them apart from traditional dry cleaners that rely on harmful chemicals like 'Perc', which are banned in several countries.

Processes over 15 million items

These electrical connection and assets mean Oxwash can now process over 15 million items a year, whilst eliminating the production of CO2 at the site.
