Laundry Equipment for Cruise Ships

Laundry equipment for cruise ships must meet a distinct set of challenges—extreme durability, compact design, and the ability to operate around the clock. At Automated Laundry Systems, we specialize in high-capacity, marine-grade laundry solutions built to perform in demanding maritime environments. Whether your vessel serves thousands of passengers or operates with a lean crew, our industrial laundry systems deliver efficient, space-conscious performance that cruise operators can depend on.

Optimize Shipboard Operations with Specialized Solutions

Operating a laundry facility at sea requires more than just power—it demands precision. Our commercial laundry solutions are engineered for cruise ship use, with compact footprints, soft-mount installation options, and programmable cycles that accommodate the continuous flow of towels, linens, uniforms, and personal garments.

 

Unlike land-based facilities, space is at a premium onboard. We help cruise lines maximize utility rooms by offering stackable or low-profile units that maintain throughput without sacrificing square footage. Whether you’re outfitting a single vessel or updating an entire fleet, our experts tailor each solution to your vessel’s structural and operational needs.

​

We’ve worked with vessels serving ports across California and beyond, delivering laundry equipment for cruise ships that operates reliably—even under the strain of nonstop demand.

Designed for Marine Efficiency and Safety

Our systems are designed to comply with maritime engineering standards, including vibration control, electrical compatibility, and safe drainage configurations. Every unit is tested for stability and functionality under the motion and salt-heavy conditions of ocean travel.

​

Additionally, we offer machines constructed with corrosion-resistant materials—like stainless-steel drums and sealed external housings—to extend the life of your investment. The ability to program custom wash and dry cycles ensures you can care for delicate linens as easily as industrial mop heads, all while conserving energy and water.

​

With laundry machines for cruise ships, efficiency isn’t just about output—it’s about protecting your vessel’s operational flow, ensuring staff productivity, and meeting safety benchmarks without compromise.

Power and Performance from the Industry’s Top Brands

At Automated Laundry Systems, we only work with commercial equipment brands known for high reliability, long lifespans, and advanced energy efficiency. Our industrial product line includes trusted names such as:

  • Maytag – Built tough, ideal for high-volume operations at sea.

  • Fagor – Known for compact, programmable systems that suit tight marine spaces.

  • American Dryer Corporation (ADC) – Offers quick-dry technology that helps reduce energy use.

  • Miele – A leading choice for cruise lines that prioritize gentle fabric care and quiet operation.

 

These machines support capacities ranging from 20 to 135 lbs. and come with programmable wash and dry options designed for flexibility. If you need laundry equipment for cruise ships that can adapt to various load types and operating conditions, we’ll help you find the right fit.

End-to-End Support for Cruise Line Operations

Managing shipboard laundry requires smooth coordination both at sea and on land. That’s why our support begins before the machines are even installed. We collaborate with cruise line procurement teams, shipbuilders, and port logistics specialists to ensure timely delivery, compliant installation, and efficient onboard integration.

 

We provide dockside coordination for California-based ports and can work with shipyard engineering teams when laundry rooms are under construction or undergoing retrofit. Once machines are in place, our factory-trained technicians provide responsive service and preventative maintenance—so downtime stays off the itinerary.

 

Should you need repairs or upgrades mid-season, we carry a full inventory of OEM replacement parts and offer 24/7 service availability, even for complex shipboard setups.

 

Whether you're operating a luxury liner or a staff supply vessel, our laundry machines for cruise ships are backed by technical expertise that supports you port to port.

Flexible Financing and Leasing Options for Cruise Fleets

We understand the challenges of capital budgeting in maritime operations. That’s why we offer custom leasing and financing programs designed to align with your procurement timelines and maintenance cycles.

 

From new ship launches to seasonal fleet expansions, we can provide short- and long-term leasing structures that reduce upfront costs and simplify lifecycle planning. Financing options are also available for multi-vessel installations, onboard laundry retrofits, or equipment upgrades.

​

When you're investing in laundry equipment for cruise ships, flexibility matters—and our financing solutions are designed with the cruise industry in mind.

Integrated Payment Systems and Marine Accessories

Many cruise operators also maintain crew-access laundry facilities. We provide user-friendly systems with card-operated or coin-operated configurations, allowing you to create self-service options for onboard staff.

In addition, we supply a range of accessories to support marine laundry rooms, including:

  • Detergent and chemical injection systems

  • Folding tables and ergonomic carts

  • Lint control solutions

  • Onboard water filtration integration

 

All accessories are marine-grade and space-conscious, designed to work seamlessly with your primary laundry systems.
