Steam Presser Vacuum & Extraction Units
Industrial Vacuum Systems for Steam Presses & Garment Finishing
Unicorp supplies industrial-grade vacuum and extraction systems engineered specifically for steam press operations in professional garment care environments. These units rapidly extract steam, heat, and moisture from fabrics during pressing — resulting in faster drying, sharper creases, and improved garment presentation.
We partner with MORO S.r.l., a leading Italian manufacturer of industrial ventilation and extraction equipment, to bring their proven MGV Series extraction towers to dry cleaners, commercial laundries, hotels, and industrial garment finishing facilities across Southern Africa. Every installation is backed by Unicorp’s local technical support, site assessments, and spare parts availability.

MORO Extraction & Vacuum Products
MORO S.r.l. is a respected Italian manufacturer specialising in industrial ventilation and extraction systems. Their MGV Series extraction towers feature inverted curved blade technology for efficient steam and moisture removal in demanding garment care environments.
MGV Extraction Towers – Galvanized Steel
Construction: Galvanized steel body with fiberglass dome
Mounting: Roof-mounted or chimney-connected
Key Features: Industrial extraction fans with inverted curved blades designed for efficient steam and moisture removal from pressing operations. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion from atmospheric exposure, while the fiberglass dome provides lightweight, durable weather protection. Suitable for standard dry-cleaning and laundry environments where ambient temperatures and chemical exposure are within normal ranges.
MGV Extraction Towers – Stainless Steel
Construction: Full stainless steel body and components
Application: Corrosive or high-temperature environments
Key Features: Engineered for facilities where standard galvanized steel would degrade prematurely due to chemical vapours, high humidity, or elevated operating temperatures. Stainless steel construction ensures long-term durability in industrial laundries, chemical processing areas, and facilities using aggressive cleaning solvents. Same inverted curved blade design for maximum extraction efficiency, with superior resistance to rust and material fatigue.
Custom Ventilation Solutions
Application: Bespoke extraction and ventilation systems
Key Features: For facilities with unique layout requirements, non-standard ducting, or specialised extraction needs, Unicorp works with MORO to specify custom ventilation configurations. This includes multi-point extraction setups for large pressing floors, ducting integration with existing HVAC systems, and capacity calculations matched to your specific steam press equipment and production throughput. Every solution begins with a professional site assessment.
Key Benefits of Proper Steam Extraction
Faster Drying & Sharper Finishing
Rapid steam extraction during pressing allows fabrics to cool and set faster, producing crisper creases and reducing the need for re-pressing or touch-ups.
Improved Workplace Safety
Effective extraction removes excess steam and heat from the pressing area, reducing humidity, improving visibility, and creating a safer, more comfortable working environment for operators.
Italian Engineering Quality
MORO S.r.l. has decades of experience manufacturing industrial fans and extraction systems to exacting European standards, ensuring reliable performance and long service life.
Protects Equipment & Premises
Removing excess moisture from the air reduces condensation on walls, ceilings, and equipment — preventing mould growth, rust, and premature deterioration of your facility and machinery.

FAQs
A vacuum and extraction unit removes steam, heat, and moisture from garments during the pressing process. This allows fabrics to cool and dry faster on the press surface, resulting in sharper creases, better garment presentation, and reduced need for re-pressing. Extraction also improves workplace air quality by removing excess humidity and heat from the pressing area, creating a safer and more comfortable environment for operators.
Yes. Unicorp provides full installation guidance and technical support for all MORO extraction systems. This includes a professional site assessment to evaluate your facility layout, roof configuration, ducting requirements, and steam press setup. We coordinate the installation to ensure optimal airflow, correct mounting, and proper connection to your existing ventilation infrastructure. Our team also provides commissioning and performance verification after installation.
Galvanized steel MGV extraction towers are the standard choice for most dry-cleaning and laundry environments. They offer strong corrosion resistance at a lower cost and are suitable for facilities with normal operating temperatures and standard cleaning chemicals. Stainless steel versions are designed for harsher environments where corrosive chemical vapours, very high temperatures, or aggressive solvents would cause standard galvanized steel to deteriorate prematurely. Stainless steel towers cost more upfront but offer significantly longer service life in demanding industrial conditions.
Yes. Unicorp stocks key spare parts and replacement components for MORO extraction towers locally in South Africa. This includes fan blades, bearings, motors, and mounting hardware. Having parts available locally means faster turnaround times for maintenance and repairs compared to ordering directly from Italy, helping minimise any downtime to your pressing operations.
Absolutely. All MORO MGV Series extraction towers are designed and built for continuous industrial operation. They are used in professional dry-cleaning plants, commercial laundries, and industrial garment finishing facilities that run multiple shifts daily. The inverted curved blade design delivers consistent airflow and extraction performance over extended operating periods, and the robust construction — whether galvanized or stainless steel — ensures long-term reliability in demanding professional environments.
