From November 12th to 14th, 2025, the leading professional event for Asia's textile processing industry – China Laundry Exhibition 2025 – will be grandly opened at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.
As a benchmark enterprise in China's industrial laundry sector, Haishi Machinery (booth number: W1F36) will bring innovative equipment and full-scenario solutions covering multiple fields such as hotel, medical, and household laundry to this grand event.
In response to the industry changes brought about by the new version of the "Technical Standard for Washing and Disinfection of Medical Textiles in Medical Institutions (WS/T 508-2025)" (to be fully implemented from February 1, 2026), Haishi Machinery has made early preparations and addressed the weaknesses in medical washing through targeted technological innovation. This exhibition will showcase its breakthroughs in this field, providing strong support for the upgrading of the medical washing industry.Unavoidable Potential Hazards in Medical Hygiene
As a core standard for medical infection control, the new version of the "Technical Standard for Washing and Disinfecting Medical Textiles in Medical Institutions (WS/T 508-2025)" for the first time includes the cleaning and disinfection of heavy fabrics such as medical mattresses, pillow cores, and quilt cores within its key control scope, establishing clear technical specifications for the industry:
**Article 6.1.1.7:** Clearly requires that pillow cores, quilt cores, and mattresses should be washed and disinfected separately using dedicated washing equipment with drying functions.
**Article 4.4.4 (Equipment Configuration):** Further strengthens the constraints, proposing that "where conditions permit, washing equipment, mattress cleaning equipment, and bed unit disinfection devices with dedicated disinfection functions should be selected."
These requirements precisely address a long-standing pain point in the industry—compared to easily cleaned fabrics such as sheets and duvet covers, heavy fabrics such as mattresses and pillow cores, due to their difficulty in cleaning and incomplete disinfection, have become a breeding ground for pathogens.From a global perspective, the cleanliness of medical bedding is a widely recognized challenge: statistics from the World Health Organization show that 15% of hospital-acquired infections worldwide are directly related to contamination of medical bedding; in China, the additional treatment costs incurred by top-tier hospitals each year due to problems with medical bedding may exceed one million yuan.Craftsmanship and Innovation: Haishi's Innovative Solutions
Addressing the requirements of the new standards and industry pain points, Haishi Machinery, a leading enterprise with 56 years of experience in industrial washing equipment, has innovatively launched two core pieces of equipment: a medical mattress cleaning and drying production line and a medical mattress cleaning and drying integrated machine.
This series of equipment precisely meets the technical requirements of WS/T 508-2025, enabling closed-loop management of the entire process of "cleaning - disinfection - drying - protection" for medical mattresses. It meets new standards in the medical laundry industry and provides strong support for solving the challenges of handling heavy fabrics.
The strength of SeaLion's medical mattress cleaning equipment has already gained international recognition: at Texcare International 2024 in Frankfurt, the equipment attracted global industry attention upon its exhibition, with professionals stopping to experience it.
Recently, the company completed shipments to the European market, breaking the long-standing monopoly of European and American brands in the high-end medical laundry equipment field with its independent technology.
At this year's China Laundry Exhibition, Haishi Machinery will focus on showcasing its medical mattress washing and drying integrated machine, continuing to contribute to the implementation of the new WS/T 508-2025 standard through "Made in China 2025".
SeaLion Medical Pillow and Comforter Core Cleaning Equipment
Building upon its expertise in solving the challenges of cleaning and disinfecting medical mattresses, SeaLion Machinery is further focusing on another weak link in medical cleaning – the treatment of pillow and comforter cores. Its innovative professional cleaning equipment for pillows and comforters will be showcased at the 2025 China Laundry Exhibition.This equipment precisely meets the requirements of "dedicated equipment for separate washing" in Clause 6.1.1.7 of the WS/T 508-2025 standard. Through multiple technological innovations, it solves the pain point of traditional equipment being "clean on the outside but dirty on the inside": it can ensure that every fiber of the fabric is fully in contact with the disinfectant water flow to achieve deep cleaning; at the same time, through intelligent temperature control and flexible processing technology, it can prevent special materials such as latex and memory foam from aging and deformation, thus balancing disinfection effect and fabric protection.
We cordially invite you to join us for a grand event!
At the 2025 China Laundry Exhibition, Haishi Machinery's booth (Booth No.: W1F36) will feature a hands-on equipment demonstration area, a standards interpretation area, and a solutions consultation area. We will showcase the entire process of innovative products, such as integrated medical mattress washing and drying machines, and specialized washing equipment for pillows and comforters. We will also interpret the core clauses and compliance points of the new WS/T 508-2025 standard, providing medical institutions and laundry service providers with comprehensive solutions encompassing "solutions - equipment - operation and maintenance - traceability."
November 12-14, 2025, Shanghai New International Expo Centre. We look forward to meeting you to build a safe medical laundry system and safeguard the health of medical staff and patients!
