In aged care, laundry and hygiene systems play a vital role in protecting residents’ health, supporting staff and maintaining compliance. With increasing regulatory pressure and rising expectations around infection control, aged care providers need more than just reliable equipment – they need a partner who understands the bigger picture.
At Richard Jay and JayChem, we work together to deliver integrated, end-to-end laundry and hygiene solutions designed specifically for the aged care sector. From equipment and chemicals to dosing, servicing and preventative maintenance, it’s a complete approach that delivers better outcomes with less complexity.
One partner for equipment, chemicals, dosing and service
Managing multiple suppliers for washers, dryers, chemicals and servicing can lead to inefficiencies and unnecessary downtime – but Richard Jay and JayChem remove that risk by providing a single, accountable partnership.
Richard Jay supplies robust commercial laundry equipment engineered for aged care environments, while JayChem delivers purpose-built chemicals and dosing systems that work seamlessly with the machinery. Ongoing service and support bring it all together, ensuring every part of the system performs as intended.
This integrated model simplifies procurement, streamlines operations and gives aged care teams confidence that their laundry systems are optimised end to end.
Preventative maintenance that reduces downtime
Unplanned equipment failures can disrupt workflows, increase labour pressure and compromise hygiene standards. That’s why preventative maintenance is a core part of the Richard Jay and JayChem approach.
Regular servicing, system checks and performance monitoring help identify issues before they escalate. Equipment runs more efficiently, breakdowns are reduced and asset life is extended. For aged care facilities, this means fewer interruptions, more predictable costs and peace of mind knowing critical laundry operations are protected.

The outcome is improved wash quality, better fabric longevity and reduced environmental impact, all while supporting compliance with Australian standards and guidelines.
Improved hygiene outcomes for residents
At the heart of every aged care facility are the residents, and clean, hygienic linen and garments are essential to dignity, comfort and wellbeing.
By combining high-performance equipment, proven chemical systems and proactive service, Richard Jay and JayChem help facilities achieve superior hygiene outcomes. Consistent wash results support infection prevention, reduce the risk of cross-contamination and create safer environments for residents, staff and visitors alike.
