Miele Professional – The Milestones
-
1924
It all started with the first drum washing machines for commercial use, heated with gas or coal. Target groups are laundry facilities, hotels, hospitals and sanatoriums. -
1961
Entry into the medical technology segment with special washing devices for surgical instruments and laboratory glassware, as well as the first dishwashers for cafes and restaurants. The products are manufactured in the Bielefeld plant. -
1962
The first Miele plant outside of Germany is founded in Bürmoos near Salzburg. After initially primarily manufacturing compact washing machines, spin dryers and lightweight irons, today the plant provides approximately 1000 application-specific stainless steel baskets and inserts for automatic cleaning and disinfection devices. 1965 After acquiring the former Gillette plant in Lehrte near Hannover, devices for commercial laundry care are manufactured there. Ever since, Lehrte has been providing the complete spectrum of larger commercial washing machines, dryers and rotary irons. -
1971
For hospitals, now there are “special automatic dishwashers” with special flexible punch-card control for anesthesia, HNO, gynecology and other medical specialties. -
1977
The “Little Giants” for use in small commercial enterprises start a success story that continues today. The outstanding characteristics of these household washing machines and dryers are compact design and particularly robust professional technology. -
1979
For the first time, the G 7717 automatic disinfection device enables separation with a clean side and a non-clean side. -
1986
Miele acquires rotary iron manufacturer Oelde – where today primarily ranges are produced; production of rotary irons has been transferred to Lehrte. -
1989
Miele launches a spin dryer on the market with a clean side and a non-clean side, which cleans disinfection laundry as stipulated in the strict directives of the “Laundry Facility” directive and is optimal for hospitals and care facilities. -
1991
Together with textile chemicals specialist Kreussler, Miele develops the “WetCare” wet cleaning process. An eco-friendly alternative to chemical cleaning, with which even textiles that were previously marked “Do Not Wash” can be washed and dried with no problems. -
1994
In the medical segment Miele develops “Vario TD” a new cleaning and disinfection program, which to this day is the market standard. It replaces the previous so-called “BGA Sechen” program as routine program. BGA = Bundesgesundheitsamt [German Federal Health Office] (today the Robert- Koch- Institute). -
1995
The first generation of high-capacity disinfectors is equipped with the freely programmable “Profitronic” electronic control system, which up to 64 programs can be individually created. -
2004
Miele launches the “Oxivario Plus” processing procedure on the market, which enables cleaning of medical instruments that the Robert-Koch-Institute classifies as critical. The procedure is later successfully tested with regard to effectiveness against prions (pathogens that cause Kreuzfeld-Jacob disease). -

Later additional cleaning agents and wash-up agents are offered for the processing of laboratory glassware, tableware, textiles and medical products.
With the “RobotVario” procedure the particularly complex instruments of robot- assisted surgery (da Vinci system) can be safely processed. For the first time, Miele launches laundry dryers with heat pump on the market and thus significantly reduces energy consumption. Energy consumption is reduced up to 50% compared to exhaust air dryers -
2013 Introduction of the hot water dryer. These dryers can use hot water, for example as made available by an in-house co-generation plant or another power generator, as direct heat source. This reduces energy costs to a minimum.

2017
Miele acquires Italian medical specialist Steelco Group and there bundles the entire hospital project business and introduces the innovative patented 4D sensor. Via the appropriate procedure, steam saturation can be measured – a prerequisite for safe sterilisation. In the professional network, Miele continuously contributes innovations for Steelco products, for example, also the PowerPulse cleaning system (2019). -
