Together with our dedicated team of Laundrynerds we keep working towards one common goal: eliminating as many tedious manual processes as possible.

Located in Odense, we draw inspiration and expertise from a rich ecosystem of industry-leading robotics companies. Furthermore, the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) and its renowned institutes for software and robotics provide us with the opportunity to recruit many talented minds during their education already. This unique environment empowers us to remain pioneers in technological advancements.

Portrait of Mads Andresen

Mads Andresen

CEO and founder of Inwatec

Already in the initial stages of his career, software developer Mads Andresen discovered his interest for the industrial laundry industry. Recognizing the untapped potential quickly, he delved into the world of mat rolling machines, laying the foundation for Inwatec’s very first product. After all, his vision has always been clear: revolutionizing laundries and automating labor-intensive processes while enhancing efficiency and ergonomics. Over a decade has passed since founding the company. Nonetheless, Andresen keeps on pursuing his mission of “removing the dirty work” together with a team of dedicated Laundrynerds.

Lean more about Inwatec's history

The beginning of the Laundryners

Inwatec's history at a glance: March 2009: Inwatec is born. The business plan is simple: create the best mat roller in the world and remove as many tedious manual processes as possible.
Inwatec officially welcomes it's first employee in March 2012. Claes Stanley joined the team and visited Texcare in Germany together with Mads. We are very excited that Claes is still a part of the Laundrynerds to this day. September 2013: That fall Inwatec celebrated it's first big project: a fully automatic mat storage at Schäfer Matten in Germany. Bonus point: we could show it off during Oktoberfest time in Munich.
In 2016 Inwatec proudly preented its first soil side s orting systems with automatic foreign object detection at the Texcare trade show in Germany. February 2017: The new innovative systems also require more space: It's time to move into Inwatec's new HQ. Not long after the new workshop got another large extension.
December 2019: Hard work pays off! In 2019 Inwatec has been awarded "Odense Robotics Company of the Year", an award received by companies excelling in growth and talent development. March 2021: After years of successful collaboration the JENSEN-GROUP increases their shares to 70%. This allows more and more projects overseas supported by our local partners at JENSEN.
The Inwatec family has gained a new family member: BLIZZ, the robotic towel feeder. Surely this occasion had to be celebrated properly with all of the laundrynerds. The more the merrier! What started out as one of Inwatec's first products has become a true bestseller. In May 2023 VORTEX #500 has been finished in our workshop.
