Water is one of the most essential resources in commercial laundry operations—and one of the most significant operating expenses. As water and wastewater costs continue to rise, finding ways to reduce consumption without compromising wash quality is increasingly important.
HydRO by Christeyns is an advanced water recovery and recycling system designed to help commercial laundries dramatically reduce freshwater consumption and wastewater discharge. By treating and reusing process water, HydRO can recover at least 80% of wastewater, helping laundries lower operating costs, improve resource efficiency, and maintain a reliable supply of high-quality water.
HydRO combines advanced water treatment technology with practical operational advantages, helping commercial laundries achieve measurable improvements in water management and overall efficiency.
HydRO is a self-contained water recovery, treatment, and recycling solution designed for commercial and industrial laundries. Its modular, containerized design integrates advanced treatment technology into a system that can be incorporated into existing laundry operations.
Rather than allowing valuable process water to be discharged after a single use, HydRO captures, treats, and returns it to the laundry for reuse. The result is a more efficient water cycle that reduces consumption, limits wastewater discharge, and delivers high-quality water back into the operation.
HydRO collects wastewater generated during the laundry process and treats it through multiple stages of purification, including iron removal, water softening, and reverse osmosis. These processes remove dissolved minerals and other contaminants, including microplastics, heavy metals, and bacteria, producing high-quality recovered water suitable for reuse in laundry operations. The system also retains valuable thermal energy. Recovered water can reach approximately 104°F (40°C), reducing the need to heat incoming water from colder supply temperatures.
Through this process, HydRO can recover at least 80% of wastewater, significantly reducing the amount of freshwater required to operate the laundry.

Traditional industrial laundries can consume approximately 0.5 to 1.2 gallons of freshwater per pound of linen processed. HydRO provides an opportunity to dramatically reduce that demand through advanced recovery and reuse. By recovering at least 80% of process water, HydRO reduces reliance on freshwater supplies while helping lower wastewater discharge volumes and associated costs. When combined with effective rainwater collection, HydRO technology can reduce freshwater consumption to approximately 0.06 gallons per pound of linen processed. For high-volume laundry operations, these improvements can translate into substantial water savings and long-term operational value.
