How big is Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market in 2026?
The dry cleaning and laundry services market is estimated at USD 83.2 billion in 2025 and USD 88.2 billion in 2026, and is forecast to grow at a 6.0% CAGR to USD 157.9 billion in 2036.
Laundry and dry cleaning service sales are expected to grow at a 6.0% CAGR through 2036. Sales are estimated at USD 83.2 billion in 2025 and are projected to reach USD 88.2 billion in 2026 and USD 157.9 billion by 2036. City customers are moving everyday laundry from high-street counters to app pickup with fast return. In December 2025, Laundryheap began an express overnight service in London, returning orders in as little as 10 hours against a 24-hour industry standard.[1] Next-morning delivery removes the main reason to visit a counter, so online services, holding an estimated 42.5% of 2026 channel sales, keep gaining on storefronts in large cities.

On a buyer heat map, hotels and hospitals run hottest, with an estimated 13.2% and 9.4% of 2026 end-use sales and linen sent out every day under multi-year contracts. Households hold the largest block at about 64.6%, though each home sends only small weekly batches, and offices and restaurants, near 5.1% and 4.3%, stay cool. Marriott ended June 2026 with a pipeline of about 629,000 rooms, 44% of them under construction.[2] For suppliers, each hotel opening brings a linen contract before the first guest arrives, so commercial launderers will add wash tunnels near new hotel clusters, and household operators will compete on pickup speed.
Key Market Trends & Insights
- Laundry should lead service type sales with 61.8% share in 2026, as washing, drying and folding orders recur every week, against about 28.6% for dry cleaning.
- Households are likely to hold 64.6% of end-use demand in 2026. Marriott added roughly 17,900 net rooms in the second quarter of 2026, a 4.5% rise in net rooms from a year earlier, which widens hotel linen volume for commercial launderers.[2]
- Storefront drop-off counters are anticipated to lead channel sales with 57.5% share in 2026, and online pickup and delivery services are estimated at 42.5%.
Regional Highlights
- Sales of laundry services in China lead profiled growth with a 6.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036.
- South Korea is expected to grow in line with the 6.0% global CAGR, the United States is forecast at 5.9%, the United Kingdom 5.2%, Australia and New Zealand 5.0%, France 4.8%, Germany 4.5% and Italy 4.3%, and Japan is lowest at 3.9%.
- The US EPA moved several PCE workplace deadlines for dry cleaners and other non-federal users to 2027 in a final rule published on 28 July 2026.[3]
Market Size & Forecast
Table 1: Market Size and Forecast for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (USD billion and percentage), 2025 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| 2025 Market Size | USD 83.2 billion |
| Estimated Market Size in 2026 | USD 88.2 billion |
| Projected Market Size by 2036 | USD 157.9 billion |
| CAGR, 2026 to 2036 | 6.0% |
| Added Revenue, 2026 to 2036 | USD 69.7 billion |
| Market Expansion Multiple | 1.8x |
A hotel signs a linen service agreement before the first guest arrives, so new openings bring commercial laundry contracts forward. Marriott ended June 2026 with a pipeline of about 629,000 rooms, 44% of them under construction.[2] Cintas reported fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue of USD 3.01 billion, up 10.9%, and raised full-year revenue guidance to USD 12.15 billion to USD 12.27 billion.[4] Analysts at FMI see USD 69.7 billion of new sales between 2026 and 2036, a 1.8x expansion of the 2026 base. Hotels and hospitals opening in 2027 and 2028 will add commercial volume first, and household pickup orders will add volume across the full decade. Labour cost is the main risk to margins, since pressing and folding remain manual work in most plants.
Perc Rules, Consolidation and Overnight Pickup
The US EPA finalised later Workplace Chemical Protection Program dates for non-federal users of perchloroethylene (PCE) on 28 July 2026, and the rule lists Drycleaning and Laundry Services (except Coin-Operated) under NAICS 812320 among affected businesses.[3] Initial PCE monitoring moved from 15 December 2025 to 21 June 2027, and the exposure control plan moved from 7 June 2027 to 20 December 2027.[3] EPA did not extend the dermal protection dates.[3] In Cincinnati, Apparel Care Cleaners replaced the shop's last PERC machine with financing of USD 79,108 through Ohio Air Quality Development Authority revenue bonds.[5] US dry cleaners will replace perc machines in stages up to 2027 and beyond, and each switch will bring a new machine purchase and a short service gap.
Buyers with capital are absorbing cleaners in the United States and the United Kingdom, FMI's review shows. EVI Industries completed the acquisition of Sudsies, a Miami garment care business founded in 1996, and formed a Consumer Garment Care Services Division.[6] Cintas expects the pending UniFirst acquisition to close before the end of calendar 2026.[4] In the UK, Elis acquired Oxwash, which runs the Big Blue I laundry in Swindon.[7] Larger groups will buy independent cleaners and route the acquired volume through fewer central plants.

Analyst Perspective
“Pickup apps are pulling dry cleaning orders away from storefront counters, and I see the move most clearly in London, because one app already draws over half of global orders from that city. Storefront cleaners in the USA, France and the UK will need lockers, late collection and app booking to keep regular customers.”

By sales channel: online services, and offline stores.
By region: laundry service coverage stretches over East Asia, Western Europe, North America, South Asia and Pacific, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and Middle East and Africa.
Why does laundry lead dry cleaning and laundry service sales?

Laundry is expected to lead with 61.8% share in 2026, with dry cleaning at about 28.6%.
Table 3: Service Type Share for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (percentage share), 2026
| Service Type | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Laundry | 61.8% |
| Dry-cleaning | 28.6% |
| Duvet Clean | 5.9% |
| Others | 3.7% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Table 4: Service Type Leadership and Market Growth for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (segment and CAGR percentage), 2026 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Global CAGR (2026 to 2036) | 6.0% |
| Leading Segment | Laundry |
Laundry is expected to lead with 61.8% share in 2026, because every household and hotel sends towels, sheets and everyday clothes on a weekly or daily cycle. Dry cleaning follows at about 28.6% (estimated), since suits, coats and silk garments go out only a few times each season. Duvet cleaning holds near 5.9% by estimate, with most households sending a duvet once or twice a year and hotels owning large stocks of spare duvets. Ironing and specialty garment care hold the other 3.7%, and EVI Industries' Sudsies deal targets high-value, technically complex garments in that niche.[6] Washing and folding jobs also fit pickup apps well, so laundry will keep the lead as online orders grow.
- Wash-dry-fold orders come from young city households, students and hotels.
- Since December 2025, Laundryheap has returned overnight London orders in as little as 10 hours.[1]
What keeps households ahead of commercial end users?
Households will lead with 64.6% share in 2026, and hotels and hospitality follow at an estimated 13.2%.
Table 5: End Use Share for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (percentage share), 2026
| End Use | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Individual/Household | 64.6% |
| Hotels and Hospitality | 13.2% |
| Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities | 9.4% |
| Corporate Offices | 5.1% |
| Restaurants | 4.3% |
| Others | 3.4% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Households will lead with 64.6% share in 2026, as millions of individual customers place small, frequent orders. Hotels and hospitality, near 13.2% (estimated), buy linen service under contract for each property. Hospitals and healthcare facilities hold about 9.4% by estimate, and hospital laundries run under infection-control rules that limit the number of approved plants. Corporate offices are likely to hold roughly 5.1% for uniforms and mats, and restaurants about 4.3% for aprons and table linen. Other commercial users hold the remaining 3.4%, mostly gyms, salons and factories. Hospital and care home laundries disinfect every load, and the laundry sanitizers market is forecast to grow at a 3.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, a lower rate than paid services because sanitizer is a small cost per kilo washed. Older people living at home also hand out more washing, and the home care services market is anticipated at a 10.5% CAGR over the same years, so care agencies will add laundry pickup to household support visits.
- Household orders cover weekly wash-and-fold bags, duvets and office shirts.
- EVI Industries set up a Consumer Garment Care Services Division on buying Sudsies in September 2026.[6]
Why do offline stores lead dry cleaning and laundry sales channels?
Offline stores are projected to lead with 57.5% share in 2026, and online services are likely to hold 42.5%.
Table 6: Sales Channel Share for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (percentage share), 2026
| Sales Channel | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Offline Stores | 57.5% |
| Online Services | 42.5% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Offline stores are projected to lead with 57.5% share in 2026, through drop-off counters on high streets and in malls. Customers bring suits and coats to a counter for inspection, and stain treatment needs a face-to-face check. Online services, at an estimated 42.5%, are growing faster, since on-demand laundry service apps collect laundry from the door and charge for speed. Laundryheap operates in thirteen markets, including Singapore, the Netherlands and France.[1] Store chains with lockers and late collection will hold regular customers, and single-site cleaners without app booking will lose orders to pickup services.
- Counter customers include office workers near transit stations and mall shoppers dropping off suits and coats.
- In September 2026, Apparel Care Cleaners in Cincinnati swapped the shop's last PERC machine using OAQDA financing.[5]
What are the drivers, restraints, and opportunities in the dry cleaning and laundry services market?
Hotel growth and app-based pickup drive demand for dry cleaning and laundry services by moving washing out of homes and on-site laundries. Solvent regulation raises equipment costs for small dry cleaners, and consolidation opens room for national garment care networks.
- Driver: Hotel groups outsource linen to commercial launderers, so every new property adds a recurring wash contract, and pickup apps turn busy city households into weekly customers.
- Restraint: Tighter rules on chlorinated solvents force single-site dry cleaners to replace machines and protect staff, which strains owners on thin margins and speeds shop closures.
- Opportunity: Founder-led cleaners nearing retirement give acquirers a steady supply of local brands, opening a path to national garment care networks built on shared central plants and pickup routes.
Hotel Pipelines Add Linen Volume
Hotel groups rarely run laundries on site, so outsourced linen service is most popular with them. Marriott added roughly 17,900 net rooms in the second quarter of 2026, and the system reached 1,813,698 rooms.[2] US and Canada occupancy rose 0.2 points to 74.0%.[2] FMI expects households to hold about 64.6% of end-use demand in 2026, so hotel growth adds to the commercial share without displacing household orders. Each new hotel will sign a linen contract, and commercial launderers near new hotel clusters will add wash tunnels first.
The EPA Perc Rule Raises the Bar for US Dry Cleaners
Regulation under the Toxic Substances Control Act is raising the bar for US dry cleaners that still run perchloroethylene machines. The July 2026 rule moved monitoring and exposure control dates to 2027 but kept dermal protection dates unchanged, and dry cleaning and laundry services under NAICS 812320 fall within scope.[3] Due to this, perc shops face new machine costs, and small owners such as Apparel Care Cleaners in Cincinnati are turning to state-backed financing, which in that case reached USD 79,108 plus USD 15,821 from a small business clean air program.[5] Single-site cleaners without access to state clean air financing will sell to larger chains.
National Garment Care Networks Open Through Acquisitions
Acquirers keeping the local brand of founder-led cleaners will add the next layer of sales growth. EVI Industries said Sudsies is the first step toward a consumer garment care enterprise of national scale.[6] EVI Industries reported nearly USD 435 million of revenue for the twelve months to 31 March 2026 and more than 900 associates.[6] Acquirers will add central plants and pickup routes to each bought brand, and the delivery fee will raise sales per customer.
Which country CAGRs are profiled in the dry cleaning and laundry services market?
Table 7: Country CAGR Comparison for the Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market (CAGR percentage), 2026 to 2036

| Country | CAGR (2026 to 2036) |
|---|---|
| China | 6.8% |

| Japan | 3.9% |
How do country-level CAGRs compare in the dry cleaning and laundry services market?
Greater China hotel RevPAR at Marriott rose 3.2% in the second quarter of 2026, and new hotel openings in Chinese cities add linen contracts.[2] FMI estimates China at a 6.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, South Korea at 6.0%, the United States at 5.9%, the United Kingdom at 5.2%, Australia and New Zealand at 5.0%, France at 4.8%, Germany at 4.5%, Italy at 4.3% and Japan at 3.9%. Only China grows above the 6.0% global CAGR, because the fastest new demand comes from unprofiled cities in South Asia and Pacific and the Middle East, such as Singapore and Dubai, and app operators are opening services in both cities. Levers differ, from hotel openings in China to perc rules in the United States and app pickup in London.
- Chinese city hotels sign new linen contracts as rooms open, and Greater China RevPAR at Marriott rose 3.2% in the second quarter of 2026.
- South Korean apartment dwellers order overnight laundry through apps.
- Dry cleaners in the United States replace perc machines before the 2027 EPA dates.
- Demand in the United Kingdom centres on London, home to over half of Laundryheap orders.

Country-wise Analysis
China Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Marriott reported Greater China RevPAR up 3.2% in the second quarter of 2026.[2] With a 6.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, China is the only profiled country above the global rate.
Key takeaway: New hotel rooms will bring linen contracts to commercial laundries in China first.
South Korea Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
FMI expects South Korea to grow at a 6.0% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, level with the global figure, on demand from high-rise apartment districts. City households there will order more pickup and overnight return through apps.
Key takeaway: App pickup in apartment districts will add most new household orders in South Korea.
United States Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
The EPA rule of July 2026 moved PCE initial monitoring to 21 June 2027 for non-federal users, including dry cleaning and laundry services.[3] EVI Industries completed the Sudsies acquisition in Miami and plans a garment care business of national scale.[6] Cintas reported fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue of USD 3.01 billion, up 10.9%.[4] According to FMI's analysis, sales in the United States will grow at a 5.9% CAGR from 2026 to 2036. Perc shop owners without funds for new machines will sell to chains before the 2027 dates.
Key takeaway: Chains buying perc shops and adding pickup routes will carry growth in the United States.
United Kingdom Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
London is the busiest app market in the UK, and the city accounts for 80% of Laundryheap orders in the country.[1] Elis acquired Oxwash and the Big Blue I plant in Swindon.[7] Micronclean began work on a £20 million cleanroom laundry campus near Skegness, with Phase One due in 2028.[8] Sales in the United Kingdom will rise at a 5.2% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, with London households and healthcare buyers adding most of the new volume.
Key takeaway: London app orders and cleanroom laundry capacity will carry growth in the United Kingdom.
Australia and New Zealand Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Pickup operators serve dense apartment districts in Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland first, and hotel linen contracts follow tourist arrivals. Sales across Australia and New Zealand will rise at a 5.0% CAGR from 2026 to 2036.
Key takeaway: Apartment districts in Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland will produce most new paid laundry orders.
France Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Laundryheap bought France's Wast and lists France among thirteen operating markets.[1] Sales in France will grow at a 4.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, as Paris households add app orders to an established base of local pressing shops.
Key takeaway: Paris app orders will add to growth in France on top of storefront pressing.
Germany Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Hospitals and hotels buy most commercial laundry in Germany under multi-year contracts, so volume moves with bed counts and room nights. FMI therefore sets Germany at a 4.5% CAGR from 2026 to 2036.
Key takeaway: Contract renewals with hospitals and hotels will decide volume in Germany.
Italy Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
EXPODETERGO International returned to Fiera Milano on 23 to 26 October 2026 with 229 exhibitors, 143 of them from Italy.[9] The show covered drycleaning and wetcleaning machines, ironing solutions and automated lines.[9] Italian cleaners will buy wetcleaning and automated finishing equipment to cut labour, and sales in Italy will grow at a 4.3% CAGR from 2026 to 2036.
Key takeaway: Equipment renewal will support demand in Italy more than new store openings.
Japan Dry Cleaning and Laundry Services Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Japan grows the least of the nine profiled countries, at a 3.9% CAGR from 2026 to 2036. Most Japanese homes own washers and drying units, so paid service stays focused on suits, uniforms and futon cleaning. Households buying laundry care products for home machines keep a lower-cost substitute for paid washing, which caps routine service prices. Home washers also need regular drum cleaning, and the washing machine cleaner market is projected at a 6.6% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, above the 6.0% for paid services, so home washing will keep a firm hold on Japanese laundry volume.
Key takeaway: Futon and uniform cleaning will hold demand in Japan steady.
