Inn-tex Textilservice

What Inn-tex Textilservice does

INN-TEX Textilservice GmbH is a regional German B2B textile services company headquartered in Seelze near Hannover. Operating from a 1,000 sqm facility with approximately 20 industrial machines and 21 qualified employees, the company functions as a full-service textile provider ("Textil-Vollversorger") for industrial, craft, and service-sector customers ranging from small businesses with 10 employees to large corporations with more than 2,000 staff.

The company's core offering is an integrated workwear and personal protective equipment (PPE) lifecycle service. Technologically, the operation relies on automated industrial laundry equipment, including form-part conveyor systems, tunnel finishers, folding robots, industrial washing and cleaning machines, dryers, and ultrasound cleaning units that enable specialized procedures for different textile types (gloves to cleaning cloths). The service chain covers pickup, scanning, cleaning, EN-norm compliance verification, repair to EN standards, and automatic replacement of leased items that fail compliance. Adjacent offerings include locker/cabinet systems for on-site clothing exchange and a dirt-trap mat rental service.

INN-TEX operates a direct B2B field-sales model with quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed rates. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring monthly leasing/full-service contracts, complemented by one-time purchases or commercial laundry solutions, recurring locker-system service, and mat rentals. The company is TÜV Rheinland-certified to ISO 9001:2015 (certificate ID 9000009414) and maintains a mutual sister-company relationship with JG JOHN GLET Arbeitsschutz GmbH in Langenhagen, a TÜV-certified occupational safety specialist dealer that supplies complementary products. Managing Director Paolo Reupke leads the firm, which is privately held with no external investors disclosed.
