Lighter trolleys. Tidier linen rooms. Consistent results.
The operational problem
Bulky liquids slow housekeeping down and crowd limited storage.
Heavy bottles weigh down trolleys, dilution varies between staff, and linen rooms fill with packaging that could be shelf-light. In multi-property groups, that friction repeats at every site.
How Leaf simplifies the work
- →One pre-measured dose removes dilution guesswork between housekeepers.
- →Slimline packs lighten trolleys and tidy the linen room.
- →Fewer, lighter deliveries ease back-of-house storage across properties.
- →Less to train on when the dose is built into the format.

Comparison Stats
How does Leaf compare?
Manual handling injuries in housekeeping come mainly from repeatedly lifting and carrying cleaning chemicals. A 120-room property getting through nine trigger bottles a day handles 2.6 tonnes of cleaning product a year. The same cleaning as pre-measured sheets weighs 3.6kg.

Pack dimensions and weights from Leaf trade specifications. All prices ex VAT. Volumes are trolley and shelf footprint, not liquid capacity. Annual figures assume a 120-room property using nine trigger bottles a day.

Frequently asked questions
Do detergent sheets work for hotel laundry?+
Yes. Leaf laundry detergent sheets are formulated for commercial laundering of bed linen, towels and staff uniforms. Each sheet is a complete, pre-measured dose, so results are consistent across housekeepers, shifts and properties.
How do compact cleaning products save space in a hotel?+
Leaf formats remove the water that makes traditional products bulky. Slimline packs store on a shelf rather than a floor, freeing linen rooms and back-of-house cupboards for stock that earns its space.
Can Leaf supply multi-property hotel groups?+
es. Leaf sells through commercial distributors, so groups can standardise one product and one dose across every property, with fewer and lighter deliveries to each site.
