Unitex

I have the pleasure of working for Unitex Textile LLC recently, and I can confidently say they are a standout in the textile industry. From the moment I reached out to them, I was impressed with the professionalism and quality of their maintenance management team. They are always willing to help and answer any questions with problems that occur throughout the day. 

Customer Service:
What really sets Unitex apart is their customer-centric approach. Their team is highly responsive, always ready to offer advice and solutions for any challenges. They take the time to understand specific requirements and offer tailored recommendations, making the entire process seamless. The communication is always clear, and I appreciate their willingness to go above and beyond to meet deadlines or address concerns.

Reliability and Timeliness:
One of the key factors in our partnership was their ability to meet deadlines without compromising on quality. In the textile industry, delays can be costly, but Unitex has proven to be a reliable supplier who can be trusted to deliver on time, every time.

Sustainability and Innovation:
Unitex is also committed to sustainability, offering eco-friendly fabric options that are both functional and environmentally conscious. It's clear that they are proactive about integrating innovative solutions into their processes, ensuring that their products are not only of the highest quality but also aligned with industry trends toward sustainability.

Overall Experience:
Overall, my experience with Unitex Textile LLC has been excellent, and I would highly recommend them to anyone. There is plenty of room for advancement and much flexibility in scheduling. 

I am currently a Production Supervisor over at the Meadow St, Hartford CT Location since June of 2022. Current work weeks are only 4 days with management being 5 days. Very friendly work environment from all employees. Everyone is willing to step up and help no matter their position. Since I have started everyone from management to production workers have treated myself and others with respect and dignity. Unitex holds a very competitive salary/pay compared to most companies. They have a great 401k program with company matching and a great cost-efficient health and dental program. Since Unitex services Hospitals and Nursing homes they can sustain employment through hard times such as the Covid-19 pandemic. I see how the company rewards hardworking long-term employees such as my current general manager who has worked and moved up at Unitex over the last 15 years. I am thankful to have joined a company who treats its employees as family and look forward to future growth opportunities within the company. I would strongly recommend Unitex as a future employment opportunity!

Unitex has taught me so much about a business I had no idea about 9 years ago! 
I interviewed for what I thought was a typical "office" position and quickly realized I was learning an entirely new field, Medical Linen and Apparel laundering, rentals and sales. I came in as an Administrative Assistant and through hard work, dedication, and leaderships recognition I have since been promoted to Assistant Office Manager. Working at Unitex has been a great experience thus far. I appreciate the day to day in office experience, there is always something new to learn and I truly enjoy those I work with, those I work around and those I work for. The nature of the business calls for a great deal of collaboration and teamwork which I find most enjoyable and rewarding.
Working for Unitex also makes balancing work and life easy with a strict 40-hour work week and generous PTO.

you deliver and pick up linen at medical facilities. everything is in carts on wheels which requires you to push/pull them (carts can be heavy though). 4 day work week but they always ask you if you want a 5th day for overtime. Uniforms provided. early start times usually 3 or 4am. Company paid medical insurance which was really good. Managers were cool and left you alone as long as you did your job and did not try milking the clock. Hourly pay was good, lots of overtime if you wanted it. 

Overall job was ok, similar to any other LTL type of work just found this easier cause you go to the same locations and they train you on all routes and instead of lifting, you push/pull carts. Still very physical though. yearly raises plus they randomly gave market raises which was nice. Senior guys stuck around longer, newer guys had a larger turn over rate because new guys had to work weekends. 

Was there 5 years, only left cause I moved out of state. 

Working at Unitex has been a seamless and exceptional experience. As a provider of industrial laundry services for hospital linens, they consistently exceed expectations in  efficiency. Their attention to detail ensures that all linens are thoroughly sanitized, meeting stringent healthcare standards. We can rely on them to deliver on time, every time, ensuring our operations run smoothly and patients receive the highest standard of care.

Their team is professional, responsive, and dedicated to meeting our needs, making them an invaluable partner. The company also embraces advanced technology, which enhances both the speed and quality of service, while maintaining eco-friendly practices. It’s rare to find such a dependable partner in a critical area like hospital linen services, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with their performance.

Highly recommend Unitex for anyone looking for top-tier industrial laundry solutions.


Unitex is a big company in which you learned to develop a great deal of independence when completing an assigned task.A typical day at work could have been great, fun and enjoyable because the work is easy and when you work together the day would go fast but there is a lock of teamwork. something the work environment felt hostile, some of the office people really need anger management.Since i was there management is the worse I've experience in year. there is favoritism and discrimination, Management abuses power. Inadequate ventilation, building is crazy old, machines are always breaking. the only part i enjoy if i could say i did was working during the weekends because i was all all by myself and the people that work on the weekends were so nice and helpful.If you value your time and you value yourself, save yourself from working for this company.

I worked for Unitex for almost a month and learned very quickly that Management lacks in communication. Moral is at its extreme low, most co-workers will give you reasons why they hate their jobs than like it. There was no real way to measure performance. Extremely disorganized, the most you will find organized are their machines. Training is terrible, you will find yourself working on your own through your training process (without knowing anything) because they are always short staffed. You are forced to work weekends while other managers and supervisors have their schedules adjusted so they all have a weekend day off except yourself. They are not open to your ideas of improvement, they will tell you (its in the works) which most likely is not true. Overall do not recommend, but if you need a place to grow, this is the place, because they have no one else.

Well my work day would start at around 6:30 am where I would prep myself for the day that meant covering and garbage containers with bag liner picking up soaked rags left from the night before. from there I would just walk around the facility from 7:00 to 3:00 picking up trash off the floor and keeping the place clean with breaks in between. I learned the value of team work how to adapt to on the job situation and how to better get in to a good routine schedule as far as keeping everything clean throughout the day. The only that can be hard is the hard to deal with is the heat cuz the temperature is amped in the summer time. Finally the best part of the job are the people the co workers as well as supervisors are all genially cool to work with once u get to know them.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Clean building and newer equipment 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It’s the service industry so it’s 24/7 and it’s cut-throat. Upper-Management agrees to delivery schedules and the inefficiencies fall on the middle managers. Managers are expected to drive when there is a call-out which means there will be no manager in the building on a weekend day for 8+ hours

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The owners are cheap, upper-management is cheap. Every day is a fire drill because there is zero planning from the top down. Gotcha culture. If there is a mistake every department from compliance to the owners is involved. Micro-management to the max

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Long hours. Early mornings and 10-12 hour shifts

I have work for Unitex for 12 years. I am the service supervisor of the 401 plant in Mt Vernon NY. Here all the managers are like a family to me, we all get along and treat each other with respect. Unitex is a company that treats everyone fairly. Unitex is a company with competitive salaries and great benefits. One of the great things about this company is that it has not reach its potential, this is a growing company (it keeps opening new plants). Lots of opportunities to grow. There is no fear of the company closing and lost of jobs. We supply hospitals and nursing homes with linen, therefore we worked during Covid and no one was laid off. I am very satisfied with Unitex and will here until I retire. One of the companies perks the CDL Drivers, mechanics and production work 4 days a week and have 3 days off. Drivers, mechanics, and production belong to a union. Yes, we are a Union shop.
