Girbau Medium Speed Washer Extractors
Professional hardmount washing machines — 10 to 30 kg capacity
The Girbau RM Series Medium Speed Washer Extractors are professional hardmount industrial washing machines delivering between 80 and 200 G-force extraction. Designed for high-volume industrial on-premise laundry operations, these heavy duty washing machines combine robust construction, intelligent water and energy management, and programmable controls to deliver superior wash quality with lower operating costs. Available in capacities from 10 to 30 kg, the RM Series is trusted commercial laundry equipment for hotels, hospitals, and laundry businesses across South Africa where throughput, fabric care, and long-term reliability are essential.
Built for demanding laundry operations and engineered to last
The Girbau RM Series enhances professional industrial laundry operations by combining heavy-duty hardmount construction with advanced water management, energy-saving inverter technology, and intuitive programmable controls. These industrial washing machines are anchored to a concrete base for stable operation at high extraction speeds, with a sturdy structural design calculated to avoid critical stress points and deliver a long service life even under the most demanding conditions. The GDrive inverter system, Aquafall cascade washing, and Aquamixer precise temperature control work together to achieve superior wash results while minimising water, energy, and chemical consumption. As one of South Africa’s leading laundry equipment suppliers, Unicorp supplies, installs, and supports the full Girbau range for businesses requiring industrial laundry machines for sale with full after-sales coverage.
Key benefits
- GDrive inverter technology delivers up to 70% reduction in electrical draw during start-up, with controlled acceleration that reduces noise, vibration, and component fatigue, significantly extending machine life.
- Aquafall cascade recirculation achieves maximum wash performance at minimum water levels, reducing cycle times and water consumption without compromising results.
- Aquamixer precision hot/cold water mixing reaches the programmed temperature at the exact water level, eliminating the need to activate heating elements for pre-heating and saving energy every cycle.
- Just in Load function automatically adjusts water volume and chemical dosing time based on load weight. Washing 25 kg in a 40 kg machine proportionally reduces water and detergent costs.
- Care Touch Drum with deep-punched, edge-free perforations treats fabric gently while maximising water evacuation during spin. Very low residual moisture levels reduce drying costs.
- Dual door safety system validates both closed and locked door signals before activation, with safety control status checked every cycle.
- Wet Cleaning Ready certification makes these machines suitable for eco-friendly professional wet cleaning programmes.
- Easy Load option on 57 kg and 110 kg models: unique no-tilt innovation for more efficient and ergonomic loading and unloading.
- 12 external dosing points with integrated collector. Chemicals are pre-diluted before contact with fabric for optimal fabric care.

Why Choose Unicorp
FAQs
Medium speed hardmount machines (80 to 200G) are anchored to a concrete floor and offer a robust, long-life design suited to continuous heavy-duty use. High speed softmount machines (up to 400G and above) float on suspension and do not require floor anchoring. Medium speed models generally have a lower purchase cost and longer structural lifespan, while high speed models offer faster cycle times and lower residual moisture. Your Unicorp consultant can advise on the best fit for your operation and site.
Yes. The Girbau RM Series are hardmount machines that require anchoring to a sturdy concrete base and firm floor for proper operation without noise or vibration. This is standard for medium speed washer extractors operating at up to 200G. Our team handles site assessment and installation as part of the commissioning process.
All RM Series models run on 380V / 50Hz / 3-phase supply. Heating element requirements range from 6 kW (RMS610) to 19.5 kW (RMG623/628). Your Unicorp consultant will confirm the full electrical specification for your selected model during the quotation process.
Just in Load automatically adjusts water consumption and chemical dosing time in proportion to the actual load weight selected. For example, washing 25 kg in a 40 kg machine will proportionally reduce water and detergent usage rather than running a full-capacity cycle, delivering measurable savings at scale in high-volume operations.
Yes. The Girbau RM Series carries Wet Cleaning Ready certification, making it suitable for professional wet cleaning programmes as an eco-friendly alternative to dry cleaning for compatible garment types.
Yes. Unicorp coordinates delivery, site preparation guidance, anchoring, installation, and full commissioning across South Africa. Operator training is included to ensure your team can programme and operate the machines effectively from day one.
