Why Choose the Electrolux Washing Machine 20Kg?
1. Ideal Capacity for Marine Use
With a 20-kilogram drum capacity, the Electrolux washing machine is the perfect size for marine and cruise ship laundry needs. It can handle large volumes of linens, uniforms, towels, and bedding with ease, making it suitable for continuous use in environments where hundreds of items need to be washed daily.
This capacity reduces the number of wash cycles required, saving time, labor, water, and energy.
