What goes wrong
Three things that cost Eton kitchens a supplier
Almost nobody around SL4 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Whites that are not actually white
Grease and protein need their own wash. Run through a front-of-house cycle they build up, and a Eton brigade ends up in jackets that look tired in a month.
-
Sizes that turn into a scramble
A box of mixed whites at the start of a shift is a box someone has to sort. Named and sized garments on a rail take that job off the pass entirely.
-
Deliveries that land mid-prep
Prep is the worst possible window and it is the one most suppliers hit. The SL4 round is sequenced to miss it.
How it works
Four steps to a Eton kitchen on the round
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the sizing and the timing right and the service stops being something the pass has to think about.
-
The count
We size the brigade and count a real week in Eton — how many jackets a section gets through in summer, not the number on last year's order.
An hour, on site
-
The round
SL4 already has a collection day. We fit you to it and agree a time that sits outside prep and outside service.

The switch
You are never between suppliers, and no service is covered in borrowed jackets.
No gap in service
-
The account
One name, who has walked your kitchen. A new commis goes on the account with a call rather than an order cycle.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one kitchen around Windsor and Maidenhead? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Eton kitchen linen is not subcontracted
There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. Eton collections run 14.8 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
What comes off a Eton pass is not what comes off a dining room table. Kitchen work is classified on its own, at its own temperature, rather than following the table linen through the machine.

Changing supplier is not the Friday risk Eton chefs think
Most Eton kitchens stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like a risk on a Friday. It is not.
- Before you commit
We size the brigade properly
An hour on site: every section, every size, and the garments that wear out first. Sizing is where most kitchen accounts go wrong.
- The handover
Whites land before the old supplier stops
The two contracts overlap on purpose, so no Eton section starts a shift on borrowed jackets.
- After
New starters go on the account the same week
Brigades change constantly. The account is set up so a new starter is a phone call, not a reorder.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
LP Laundry has been an absolute game-changer for our 45-room boutique hotel. Turnaround on our bed linens and heavy plush towels is inside 24 hours without a single delay. We could not be happier with the crisp, immaculate finish.
Charlotte Vance Front of House & Accommodation Manager · 45-room boutique hotel -
Running a high-end spa means going through hundreds of bathrobes and spa towels daily. Our rotation stays fully stocked with exceptionally soft, hygienically pristine textiles. Guest comfort has noticeably improved since we switched.
Siobhan O'Connor Spa Operations Director · Luxury health club & spa -
Our members expect fresh sweat towels immediately after back-to-back spinning classes. They handle our daily volume seamlessly, and I would single out the punctuality and the clean, long-lasting scent of the eco-friendly detergents.
Marcus Thorne Studio Manager · Boutique fitness studio -
In clinical and aesthetic practice, hygiene standards have to meet rigorous compliance. High-temperature sanitised gowns, drapes and bed covers arrive reliably every week. I trust their quality control completely.
Dr Elena Rostova Clinic Director · Private healthcare clinic -
For high-end short-stay apartments, guest reviews live and die by linen quality. We get hotel-grade crispness that consistently earns us five-star cleanliness ratings, and the communication lines are short when something needs resolving.
Beatrice Dupont Head of Housekeeping · Luxury serviced apartments -
We use dozens of salon towels and client gowns every day. Stubborn hair dye and product stains come out effortlessly and our capes still look new. They are an indispensable part of the daily flow here.
Chloe St. Laurent Salon Owner & Manager · Hair & beauty salon -
We rely on clean bolster covers, fleece blankets and eye pillows. Delicate fabrics are treated with care while still getting a deep, hypoallergenic sanitisation, and everything comes back beautifully presented.

Local knowledge
Eton — what the round has to work around
A world-renowned academic and historic town defined by its elite college and royal connections. Unique to Eton.
What makes Eton its own job is the service pattern rather than the distance. The round is planned to miss prep, which is when a delivery is least welcome.

Asked most often about Eton kitchen linen
Which round covers Eton?
Yes — Eton sits on the SL4 round, 7 days, 14.8 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Windsor, Datchet and Slough — one van, one run, which is what keeps a small kitchen sensible to price.
- The driver knows the service entrances around Windsor and Eton Riverside and Windsor and Eton Central — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
- A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.
- 150 kitchens around SL4 are already on this round — we are not learning the area on your account.
Do you hire chef whites, or only launder ours in Eton?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.
- Hire — stock, replacement and sizing are ours; you never place an order.
- Wash-only — your own embroidered jackets come back to you, the same garments, named, not pooled.
- Plenty of kitchens do both — hired cloths and aprons, own-branded jackets on wash-only.
- You can move a line between the two later — it is a change to the sheet, not a new agreement.
How is kitchen soil handled differently?
Separately, and at its own temperature.
- Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — and their own temperature.
- Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — that transfer is what dulls a brigade's whites inside a month.
- Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
- Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.
Is there a price list for chef whites?
Priced on your brigade, not off a rate card. The number depends on sections and turnover, not on floor area.
- We count a real week in Eton before quoting — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
- No minimum order — size barely moves the per-garment price.
- The count includes your busy season — a Eton kitchen quoted off a quiet month runs short in the one that matters.
- The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.
Do you take non-restaurant kitchens?
Yes, and they are not an afterthought on a restaurant round.
- 9 school kitchens around SL4 are already on the round — we are not learning catering work on your account.
- 4 care home kitchens nearby — with the same named-garment handling.
- Colour-coded cloths and named whites — so the coding still means something when the cloths come back.
- Contract caterers running several sites — get one account manager and staggered collection days across the group.
Do you size every section, or go off a headcount?
In person, section by section — not off a headcount.
- Every section is sized at setup — not estimated from a headcount.
- A new commis goes on the account the same week — rather than waiting for an order cycle.
- Garments are named — which takes the sorting job off the pass entirely.
- Par counts are re-set after the first month — against what the brigade actually used, because any opening count is an estimate.
Can we choose our collection time in Eton?
Outside both, because prep is the window most suppliers hit.
- The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
- Timed around Windsor and Eton Riverside so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
- If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
- A relief driver inherits the window with the route — so cover weeks do not become the weeks it goes wrong.
Are we tied into a long contract?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.
- Terms flex with seasonal demand — Eton in August and Eton in January are different kitchens, and the account should say so.
- Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will size your brigade while you are still under someone else.
- Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
- If it is not working, say so — most problems are a wrong par count or a wrong delivery window, and both are fixable without changing supplier.
Something specific to your Eton kitchen?
Ask us directlyThe greenest wash is the one Eton does not repeat
Most of the environmental cost of kitchen linen is rewashing and replacing it. Classifying kitchen soil properly the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- One vehicle covers SL4, so adding Eton adds a stop rather than a journey.
- Getting grease and protein out first time is what stops jackets being binned early.
- A scorched cuff is repaired and put back into rotation, not written off.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Windsor and Maidenhead is fully electric.
