In the application scenario of hotel laundry detergents, “high-efficiency stain removal” is not a vague concept of “strong cleaning power.” Instead, it refers to a targeted, highly adaptable, and time-efficient stain removal effect achieved through formulation design, tailored to the high-frequency stain types of hotel bulk cotton-linen fabrics (bed sheets, duvet covers, towels, etc.), the operating characteristics of industrial laundry equipment, and the core demand for “rapid bulk processing and reduced rework.” Its specific meaning can be broken down into the following three dimensions, each directly linked to the formulation components of hotel laundry detergents:
Targeted Removal of “Typical Hotel Stains”
Hotel fabrics are highly prone to a concentrated set of stains, mainly human secretions (sweat, sebum, dander) and mild food residues (oil stains, sauces, beverage stains), most of which adhere to cotton-linen fibers (porous by nature, making them prone to absorbing oil and protein-based stains). “High-efficiency stain removal” first requires the formulation to accurately break down these types of stains (rather than “spreading cleaning power evenly across all stains), which is specifically achieved through the following components:
High-proportion anionic surfactants (LAS + AES)：
Sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (LAS) is an “oil killer” that quickly penetrates the pores of cotton-linen fibers, emulsifies, and breaks down sebum and food oil stains to separate them from the fabric. Sodium laureth sulfate (AES) assists in enhancing the dissolution of water-soluble impurities in sweat (such as salt and sweat metabolites) while reducing the irritation of LAS (to avoid damaging cotton-linen fibers). The combination of the two perfectly targets the core stain types on hotel fabrics.
High-content sodium carbonate (soda ash)：
The amount of soda ash added to hotel laundry detergents is much higher than that in household detergents (usually accounting for 15%-25% of the formulation). Its strongly alkaline environment can: ① Destroy the structure of proteins in sweat (e.g., keratin), converting them from “insoluble solids” to “liquids that can be easily carried away by surfactants”; ② Increase the pH value of water to enhance the activity of anionic surfactants (LAS/AES exhibit stronger cleaning power under alkaline conditions), especially effective for old sweat stains (such as residual stains on collars and cuffs that have not been thoroughly cleaned for a long time) attached to cotton-linen.
Industrial-grade protease/lipase：
For proteins in sweat (e.g., albumin in sweat) and fats in food stains (e.g., cooking oil, butter), the formulation incorporates high-activity industrial enzymes. Protease directly “cuts” protein molecular chains, decomposing them into small-molecule peptides/amino acids; lipase catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats into glycerol and fatty acids. With the combined action of these enzymes, even stubborn stains that remain after soaking can quickly fall off during the agitation process of industrial washing machines, eliminating the need for repeated scrubbing or re-washing.
Adaptability to the Efficiency of “Hotel Industrial Laundry Equipment”
Hotel laundry relies on large-capacity industrial washing machines (capable of washing 50-100kg of fabrics per load), which are characterized by “high-temperature washing (typically 60-80℃), high-speed agitation, and short washing cycles (30-60 minutes per batch).” “High-efficiency stain removal” needs to adapt to these equipment characteristics to avoid reduced cleaning power due to “component intolerance,” which is specifically reflected in:
High-temperature resistance of components：
The surfactants (LAS/AES) and enzymes (industrial-grade protease) in hotel laundry detergents have undergone high-temperature resistance modification. For example, ordinary household enzymes denature at temperatures above 60℃, while industrial enzymes used in hotels can maintain activity at temperatures below 80℃. They can work with the “high-temperature washing program” of industrial washing machines (high temperatures accelerate stain dissolution) to complete stain removal in a short time, meeting the hotel’s demand for “bulk rapid washing.”
Low-foaming and easy-rinsing：
The “high-speed dehydration” of industrial washing machines is sensitive to foam—excessive foam from detergents can lead to foam residue during dehydration, requiring additional rinsing cycles (time-consuming and water-wasting). Therefore, hotel laundry detergents control the foaming volume of surfactants (e.g., reducing the proportion of components that tend to produce high foam), ensuring that “one main wash + 1-2 rinses” are sufficient to completely remove stains and detergent residues, avoiding reduced efficiency due to “repeated rinsing.”
III. Ensuring Stability in “Bulk Processing”
Hotels need to clean hundreds or even thousands of pieces of fabric daily. “High-efficiency stain removal” also requires consistent cleanliness of all fabrics after washing, avoiding situations where “some are clean while others have residual stains” (to prevent rework and reduce labor costs). This requirement is achieved through the addition of “anti-redeposition agents”:
During the washing process of cotton-linen fibers, if the already detached stains (e.g., dander, oil particles) are not “locked in firmly,” they may reattach to other fabrics with water flow, causing “cross-contamination” (e.g., clean towels picking up sweat residue from other fabrics). The anti-redeposition agents (such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose) in hotel laundry detergents can combine with detached stain particles to form a stable “suspension,” which is discharged with wastewater. This ensures that every piece of fabric remains clean during bulk washing, eliminating the need for separate sorting and re-washing.
Summary: The Core Logic of “High-Efficiency Stain Removal” for Hotels
It is not “non-discriminatory enhancement of cleaning power,” but rather “precision optimization centered on hotel scenarios”—designing components for “cotton-linen fabrics + sweat/oil/food stains,” adapting to “industrial high-temperature rapid washing equipment,” and ensuring “stability in bulk processing.” Ultimately, it achieves a stain removal effect that is “short-time, low-cost, and rework-free,” which is fundamentally different from the logic of household detergents (focused on “gentle fabric care”) and hospital detergents (focused on “disinfection priority”).
