Chicago Dryer Company designs and builds systems to feed, dry, iron and fold washed sheets, pillowcases and table linen, tumble-dried towels, blankets, patient gowns, scrubs and specialty items. The company is one of the few finishing equipment manufacturers in its field that designs and fabricates all of its own products, including electronic controls, rather than relying on outside sources. This vertical integration gives Chicago Dryer complete quality control of manufacturing from start to finish as well as the ability to add features while retaining a competitive price, the flexibility to more quickly respond to changing customer needs and single-source responsibility for the entire finishing system.
