Gym & Spa Towels In Normandy Collected To Schedule

Yes — Normandy sits on the GU3 round, 7 days, 27.0 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Ash Green, Wanborough and Ash — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single studio sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Wanborough — which matters when the drop has to land before the evening rush.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 27.0 miles buys you.
• Multi-site operators run on staggered days, so no club is left short while another is being collected from.

Yes. One collection, two specifications. The gym side is judged on whether the rack is full; the spa side on how the robe feels.

• Robes are laundered to keep their handle — which is a different process from turning round sweat towels at volume.
• Bath mats run on a heavier classification — than towelling, and mixing the two shortens the life of both.
• One collection, one invoice — the split is in the classification, not in the account.
• Hotel spas are a normal account — the bed linen side can go on the same round.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. The account should hold because it works, not because leaving is expensive.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — there is no cost to finding out.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — we would rather correct the account than lose it.

Because the wash was wrong, not because the towel is finished. A towel can pass inspection dry and fail it in use, because oil only announces itself once the towel warms up.

• Gym towelling runs on its own classification — Normandy towels are classified for the soil they actually carry.
• Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — softener is the usual culprit: it smells pleasant and stops the towel drying anything.
• Towels that stop absorbing are usually over-softened, not worn out — and the fix costs nothing but a change of classification.
• Every load is temperature logged — and the log sits against your account, not a general plant figure.

Shrinkage is normal and predictable. We plan for it rather than dispute it.

• Expected loss is built into the par count at setup — which is the difference between a working count and an optimistic one.
• You get the actual numbers each cycle — rather than a running balance nobody can reconcile.
• A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — it usually means a change on the floor rather than a laundry problem.
• On hire, fair wear is our cost — greying and thinning are ours to replace.

There is no honest price list for towel work. Two clubs with the same membership can differ twofold in towel usage depending on the floor.

• We count a real week in Normandy before quoting — including the evening peak, which is where every estimate falls over.
• The count includes January — peak months are the ones the par count has to survive.
• No minimum order — so a boutique studio is an ordinary account and is priced per item like any other.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

By counting against your peak rather than your daily average. Towel demand does not spread evenly across opening hours — it stacks, and an average hides exactly that.

• We count on site at the time it matters — not from a figure on your last invoice.
• A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — the par level has to survive both, so it is set against the worse of the two.
• January is planned in — new-year membership is the most predictable spike in the trade and should never be handled as an emergency.
• If you run short twice, the count is wrong — and correcting it is our job, not a favour.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — stock, replacement and shrinkage planning are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — your own branded stock comes back to you, the same items, not pooled.
• Most clubs split it — the logo matters on a robe, rarely on a sweat towel.
• You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.
