OREANDA-NEWS. Xeros Technology Group plc (AIM: XSG, 'the Group', 'Xeros'), the innovative developer of patented polymer bead systems with multiple identified commercial applications, today announces the formal launch of Xeros Sbeadycare® XTEND, a new laundry management solution for the hotel industry. 

Xeros Sbeadycare® XTEND is a first for the commercial laundry industry, combining the physical properties of a specifically designed polymer bead with bespoke digital programmes automatically downloaded to customers' washing machines. The beads used in this new application are manufactured in partnership with BASF. 

This new laundry management solution helps extend the life of linens and also significantly reduces the number of items discarded by removing stains hitherto incapable of being removed in conventional washing machines. This results in a significant reduction in linen replacement costs for hotel customers. 

Mark Nichols, Chief Executive of Xeros, said: 

"As noted at our interim results on 22 March, we have been accelerating the roll out of machine installations in our Commercial Laundry business, whilst simultaneously increasing customer satisfaction levels and further developing our supply chain. 

"Xeros Sbeadycare® XTEND will enable us to add further value to our hotel customers without any disruption to their operations. It is yet another example of using our technological expertise and understanding of our customers' requirements to deliver simultaneous improvements in cost, sustainability and quality."
