Alsco Uniforms and Linen Services

Alsco is a global leader in uniform and linen rental services, catering specifically to the healthcare, hospitality, and industrial sectors. Founded in the late 19th century, it pioneered the rental of linen products to businesses, a model that revolutionized the commercial laundry industry by allowing companies to outsource the cleaning and maintenance of their staff uniforms and customer linens.

The company operates extensive facilities across North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. Each regional operation utilizes large-scale industrial laundry plants located within the countries they serve to minimize logistics costs and provide timely delivery. This distributed manufacturing and service model ensures that high-quality, sanitized textiles are available to local businesses regardless of their geographic location.

Alsco remains a family-owned enterprise, maintaining its private status through successive generations. The company's headquarters are located in Salt Lake City, Utah, from where it manages its vast network of international subsidiaries. Their business model continues to focus on sustainability and hygiene, often setting industry standards for water recycling and eco-friendly cleaning processes.
