1987 - Softrol Systems Begins 

Softrol Systems was incorporated all the way back in 1987. It was here that Softrol introduced three of its most prominent systems: the MicroPulse controls, ChemPulse chemical systems, and the PulseNet Management software.

1998 - Softrol Systems Expands 

As we said above, every business has to grow and develop in order to succeed and thrive. And in 1998, Softrol Systems did just this as they expanded into the world of automated garment sorting options through both fully and semi-automated sorting solutions. These solutions were offered to a variety of industrial laundries. 

2005 - A Softrol Systems Milestone 

Seven years after expanding into automated garment sorting options, Softrol Systems installed its 500th chemical dispensing system as well as shipping its 500th machine control for wash aisle machinery. 

2011 - Softrol Systems Expands Again 

Expanding again in 2011, Softrol Systems installed its first automated rail system for both clean and soil solutions. In the past, we've delved extensively into automated railing systems with a past blog post. Click here to learn more. 

2015 - Softrol Systems Introduces Its LOIS System 

One of the most prominent and popular systems that Softrol Systems has to offer is its LOIS system.  Short for Laundry Operation Information System, the LOIS smooth and efficient plant operations through real-time reporting, including: 

  • Real-time alerts sent directly to your email address
  • Monitors critical plant functions and employee performance
  • Accessible with smartphones, tablets, and more 
  • Ability to access multiple sites from the same user account. 

Four years later, in 2019, Softrol Systems introduced the LOIS rail control with Pan-and-Zoom technology.
