Commercial Drying Cabinet

Electrolux Professional DC6-8 8kg Commercial Drying Cabinet

The DC6-8 dries using controlled airflow — no drum, no mechanical action, no risk of damage to uniforms, outerwear or structured garments. 18–20 extensible hangers, 42-minute cycle, two auto-stop programmes, and a door that can be opened briefly mid-cycle without interrupting drying. Ideal for care homes, hotels and on-premise laundries with mixed fabric loads.

Key Features

Airflow Drying — No Mechanical Stress

Warm air circulates around hanging garments with no drum rotation. Uniforms, structured garments, knitwear and outerwear with padding are dried in their natural shape without abrasion, stretching or heat stress. The garment comes out in the same condition it went in — just dry.

Auto-Stop at Dryness

Both programmes detect when the load has reached the target dryness and stop automatically. No over-drying, no unnecessary energy use and no operator required to monitor the cycle. The 5-minute reconditioning phase at the end ensures garments are in optimal condition when the door opens.

42-Minute Cycle — Door Opens Mid-Cycle

A standard cycle completes in 42 minutes. The insulated door can be opened briefly during a cycle — to add a forgotten item or check progress — without stopping the drying process. Useful in high-throughput environments where interruptions are unavoidable.

18–20 Extensible Hangers

The cabinet ships with 18–20 extensible hangers that adjust to different garment lengths. Full-length coats, jackets, trousers and shirts all hang at the correct length without folding. Easy loading and unloading compared with flat drying racks or static hanging rails.

Ergonomic & Accessible Design

User-friendly door handle and control panel placement designed for ease of use, including by disabled users. Quiet operation with insulated doors reduces noise in care home, hotel and salon environments. Adjustable feet allow the cabinet to be levelled on uneven floor surfaces.

Safety — Magnetic Door Edge

The magnetic door edge eliminates the risk of being locked inside the cabinet — an important safety requirement in care home and healthcare environments. An optional child safety start lock is available to prevent accidental activation in public-facing or shared laundry settings.

DC6-8 vs DC6-15 — Which to Choose

The DC6-8 and DC6-15 are both airflow drying cabinets from the same Electrolux Professional Line 6000 range. The DC6-8 handles 8kg with 18–20 hangers in a more compact footprint; the DC6-15 handles 15kg with a larger cabinet for higher-volume environments.

For a small hotel, B&B or care home drying a batch of uniforms, structured garments or outerwear each day, the DC6-8 is the right-sized machine. For a larger laundry or hotel with higher daily volumes of non-tumble garments, the DC6-15 provides more capacity in a single cycle. Both require 400V 3-phase supply.
