Which code does this activity belong in?
Industrial Launderers supply work-focused protective and functional items on a rental or contract basis, with emphasis on industrial work uniforms, flame-resistant apparel, clean room clothing, and dust control products such as treated mops and shop towels. Linen Supply, by contrast, focuses on items used in hospitality, healthcare, and personal service settings, including table linens, bed linens, and uniforms for medical professionals, barbers, and waitstaff. The distinction rests on the industrial application and protective purpose of the items supplied by Industrial Launderers versus the general-purpose and service-sector orientation of Linen Supply.
