Steer rental linen and hospitality textiles on measured impact
Textile service companies use bAwear Score to calculate the impact of bedlinen, towels and table linen per product and per kilogram. Results show which material and sourcing choices reduce impact across a collection that is washed and reused many times.
What makes impact data hard in textile services & Hospitality
Clients ask for footprints per item
Hotels and care organisations want impact data for the linen they rent, often per kilogram or per use.
Procurement decisions last years
A material choice is felt across millions of wash cycles. Getting it right needs data before the purchase.
Many partners, few data
Data is spread across weaving and finishing suppliers, laundries and service partners, and is rarely shared in a usable format.
Typical hotspots per supply chain step
Materials
Cotton and polyester-cotton blends. Fibre origin and recycled content drive climate and water impact.
Yarn
Spinning energy and yield losses, especially for fine, high-density yarns.
Fabric
Weaving, bleaching and finishing. Energy mix at the mill matters.
Product
Making, packaging and transport. When the use phase is included, washing, drying, repair and replacement cycles weigh heavily.
Typical patterns, not results. Your result depends on your products and data. Calculated with ReCiPe 2016 Midpoint (Hierarchist), aligned with ISO 14040/14044.

Questions from textile services & Hospitality teams

Yes. Quick Score starts from textile-specific worst-case data, so you can measure your collection before supplier data is available. Results are indicative and conservative. You replace the defaults with primary data as it comes in.
Can results be expressed per kilogram of linen?+
Yes. The functional unit is set per calculation, for example per item or per kilogram, and stated with the result.
Can we compare two suppliers for the same product?+
Yes. Scenario comparison shows the difference against a reference product, per supply chain step.
Does bAwear Score include laundry?+
The use phase can be included in the system boundary. The scope is stated with every result.
Which method does bAwear Score use?+
ReCiPe 2016 Midpoint (Hierarchist), aligned with ISO 14040/14044.
