Circuit

Circuit: managed laundry for university environments

Circuit presents itself as the UK market's leading managed laundry provider, with a service model geared towards shared facilities, primarily in university halls. Its activity combines equipment supply, service management and end-user support.

Services for users and for facilities

The company structures its offering into two areas: on the one hand, the laundry service for end users, with usage guides, troubleshooting and a mobile app; on the other, the partnerships area, aimed at institutions wishing to introduce or improve a managed laundry on their premises.

Tools available to users include an FAQ section to resolve common issues, a live chat service and phone support. The company also offers a product called Wash Pass, whose terms and conditions are set out on its site.

Partnerships with institutions

Circuit's partnership programme is aimed at organisations that need to manage laundries at their sites. The company mentions areas of work such as ESG (environmental, social and governance criteria), student engagement and ongoing support for partner sites. The partnerships page includes information on why to partner with Circuit and support resources.

Presence in the university sector

The site's content shows examples of collaboration with academic institutions. It mentions the laundry upgrade at Sidney Sussex College, a Cambridge University college founded in 1596, with a community of 355 undergraduates, 275 postgraduates and 80 fellows. Articles aimed at university life are also published, such as the welcome to the academic year or the promotion of weekday washing.

Languages and accessibility

The site is available in English and Welsh, reflecting its presence in different regions of the UK. The company offers its mobile app for download as a channel for accessing the services.
