Koblenz Electric introduces portable washing machine

Thorne Electric Company representing Koblenz Electric has introduced a portable washing machine into the U.S. market that allows microfibers to be cleaned on site.

Microfibers are one of the greatest cleaning accessories seen in the last decade. They are designed to be used and reused hundreds of times with optimum results. But sending them out to be cleaned is expensive and a hassle.

Koblenz now has a new portable washer that is ideal to be used on site to clean up to six pounds of microfibers in five minutes. It will reduce the cost of laundering dramatically.

The washer is lightweight, weighing only 25.5 pounds. It can be easily moved from one place to another, and it even fits in the trunk of most cars. No special installation is necessary. The washer hooks up to any hose and sink and fits in virtually any corner.

The cabinet of the washer is made of polypropylene designed to withstand high temperatures and abrasive chemicals for which other washers are not suited.

Microfibers, bonnets, rags and mops fit into the wide wash tub. It has an automatic shut off timer and reverse action impeller.

The new washer comes with merchandising point of purchase material that communicates the benefits of the product and that can be easily displayed on store floors. For more information, contact Thorne Electric Company at 1-800-548-5741.
