In
September, 1946, in New Britain, Connecticut, two Polish immigrants, Edward
Pivcinski and Roman Galinski (hence the name Edro), opened a specialty
tool and die shop to serve the local manufacturing market. At that time, Edro
supplied high precision milling and turned parts to companies such as The Stanley Works,
Kaman and Sikorsky Aircraft. The company was noted for its high quality
craftsmanship and ability to manufacture custom machined parts. In 1954, founder and then president Roman Galinski invented a unique
design in washer-extractors for the laundry industry. His patented "3-D" triangular
designed three pocket wash basket, which he called DynaWash®,
eliminated the time consuming step of transferring water laden laundry from washer to
separate extractor. And for the first time, large volumes of laundry were able to be
processed in a combination washer-extractor. These machines improved the
productivity of the wash room by increasing the efficiency of the labor usage and utility
consumption; all the while, the rugged, durable design of the machine made it last for
years. The EDRO
Corporation of TODAY marks a company with a broad range of experience in the
manufacturing process with an expertise in laundry equipment. From the original 300 lb.
capacity three pocket washer to our brand new 60 and 100 lb. high speed open pocket washers, EDRO
has developed a complete line of machines in both the three pocket and open pocket
designs. With a variety of options including PassThru designs
for Clean Room applications, human machine interface touch screen control
technologies, high efficiency electric motor drives,
and exclusive DynOzone technology, the EDRO DynaWash® machines of today meet the demanding needs for higher
productivity and energy conservation.
There
are thousands of EDRO DynaWash® installations
throughout the world in hospitals, hotels, nursing homes, commercial laundries,
industrial laundries, institutions and many others. EDRO is perhaps best recognized as
a leading
supplier of shipboard and marine washer-extractors. U.S. Navy ships fleet
wide, including the latest aircraft carrier,
CVN-76 USS
Regan,
have rugged, reliable EDRO DynaWash®
washer-extractors on board. |
