Company History

CLEC was incorporated in 1969 by Fritz Hensel to service laundry equipment for hotels, nursing homes, dry cleaners and other industries in south Florida. Fritz stressed honesty, integrity and hard work as he brought sons Bob and Paul in to manage the growth generated by his business model.

After Fritz' untimely death in 1976, Bob and Paul continued with the underlying commitment to customer service while developing distributor relationships with the industries leading laundry equipment manufacturers.

Today CLEC maintains strong emphasis on customer service, and offers the highest quality laundry equipment available in the market. Thousands of satisfied customers from across the country and overseas are a testament to the vision Fritz had over 35 years ago.
