Chicago Folders and Stackers

The last step in the laundry finishing process is accurate, crisp, and consistent folding of ironed or tumble dried items. Chicago’s laundry folding line includes a large selection of folding and stacking equipment to meet the unique needs of any commercial laundry regardless of floor space, laundry volume or linen type.

Skyline large piece folder series includes over 40 different models with automatic selection of correct folds for sheets, tablecloths, blankets, pillowcases and napkins. The versatile Skyline SP series is for flat stacking or half / quarter folding of pillowcases, napkins and similar items in separate lanes at the same time. The Skyline Blanket folder series has special roll clearances and a reversing conveyor cross-fold section to accommodate thicker blankets and spreads, as well as sheets.

The patented Air Chicago series includes six different equipment models using Air Induced Response to accurately fold all types of laundry – from hand towels to pool towels, as well as bath mats, patient gowns, scrubs, aprons, and blankets.

The Air Chicago series comes in a variety of sizes including an automatic Triple Sorting version, the streamlined quality towel folder Air Chicago Express, and a Slim model for folding aprons. Air Chicago XL and XXL models will also fold blankets and other larger and thicker items in addition to small pieces.

The Aircumulator Carousel is a labor-saving model that receives and stacks small items onto storage bars. Smaller folder / stackers such as the Flipper are available for automatic bundling of very small items such as bar wipes, washcloths, and shop towels.

All Chicago folders feature CHI controls for ease of automation and consistency of use by operators, managers, and service personnel. No other laundry folding equipment company offers the variety and reliability of Chicago’s complete folder range.
