EDRO CORPORATION - COMPANY HISTORY
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 new high-speed open pocket washer, 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, single motor inverter drives, and exclusive DynOzone technology, the EDRO DynaWash® machines of today meet the demanding needs for higher productivity and energy conservation.

In September, 2008 we completed DynaWash® number 5,000; a significant achievement testifying the machine design, quality construction and company's commitment to after-sales support. And while there are thousands of EDRO DynaWash® installations throughout the world, EDRO is perhaps best recognized as a leading supplier of shipboard and marine washer-extractors and tumbler dryers. Cruise ships the world over and U.S. Navy ships and allied naval ships, including the latest aircraft carrier war ship, CVN-77 USS George H.W. Bush, have rugged, reliable EDRO DynaWash® washer-extractors and M-SERIES tumbler dryers onboard.
