Strong first half reflects continued customer confidence

The first half of 2026 reflects the continued confidence that laundries around the world place in the JENSEN-GROUP: Our revenue for the first half year increased by 20.2%, amounting to 316.2 MEUR. Also the order intake for the first semester has reached another strong high, totaling 279.2 MEUR. Despite an increasingly challenging market environment, the demand for technologies that strengthen productivity and competitiveness continues to grow. Strong order intake and revenue growth confirm the strength of our strategy and the trust our customers place in our people, our technology, and our service organization.

Close to our customers

JENSEN supports customers in virtually every laundry segment. From stand-alone machines to complete processing lines and fully automated laundry systems, we help customers find the solution that best fits their business today while preparing them for tomorrow. 

To further strengthen our customer focus, the JENSEN-GROUP organized its global business into three regions: the Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific and the Middle East. This regional structure brings decision making closer to our customers and strengthens collaboration between our sales, service, and production teams. Combined with our global engineering expertise and manufacturing footprint, it allows us to combine local support with worldwide experience.

Driving the next step in automation

Automation is reshaping the laundry industry. Labour shortages, increasing quality requirements, and the need for greater operational efficiency are accelerating the demand for smarter production processes.

JENSEN invests in robotics, intelligent software and digital infrastructure to help customers automate their operations step by step. Whether investing in a single machine or a fully automated laundry system, customers benefit from solutions that increase productivity, improve working conditions and deliver measurable business value. 

Following the integration of JENSEN Braun, we are expanding our production capacity in the United States, making JENSEN the largest producer of heavy-duty laundry equipment in North America. At the same time, we are strengthening our recurring service business through MAXI-PRESS, helping customers maximize uptime, extend equipment lifetime and optimize the performance of their installations.

"Performance drives competitiveness. Our ambition is to help every customer build a laundry that is more productive, more reliable and ready for tomorrow. Whether they invest in a single machine or a fully automated system, we want to be the partner they can rely on" says Martin Rauch, who was appointed CEO of JENSEN earlier this year. 

Outlook

While geopolitical and economic uncertainties remain, the JENSEN-GROUP continues to execute its long-term strategy with confidence. With a global presence, strong local organizations and a complete portfolio ranging from stand alone machines to fully automated laundry systems, JENSEN is well positioned to continue shaping the future in laundry automation.

"Our strategy remains unchanged. We continue to invest in innovation, automation, and our global organization while staying close to our customers in every region of the world. That combination gives us confidence for the future," says Jesper Munch Jensen, CEO of the JENSEN-GROUP.
