Step 1 of 4 · Property specification

Build the property linen brief.

Start with the property, operating environment and linen requirement.

Work through the core fields first; the optional Linen Value Planning calculator and bespoke choices follow in sequence.

Begin the specification
01Property and use context
02Materials & Composition
03Care, durability, weight & absorbency
04Sizes, dimensions and operating quantity
05Sustainability and final notes
BChoose your bespoke requirements

Select one, two or all three services only where they form part of the actual property or project requirement.

Specific request: These selections must reflect the actual request accurately. Choose only the customisation services specifically required for this project; BBC will review feasibility, specification, minimum quantities, sampling and production requirements before confirmation.

Step 4 of 4 · Review before sending

Create my specification page.

The next page compiles the core specification, any Linen Value Planning baseline you deliberately included, your bespoke selections and any currently selected products. You can edit, print or send the complete brief to BBC.

Step 2 of 4 · Optional planning

Add Linen Value Planning if it supports the decision.

If replacement-spend information is useful to the project, complete the calculator here.

Select the inclusion option only when you want this baseline carried into the final specification.

ZAR 17.12 in the example.

Illustrative replacement exposure

ZAR 1,500,000 over 3 years in the example.

Important limitations

Read before relying on the result.

The calculator uses only the information entered and does not estimate BBC product lifespan or publish BBC prices.

Method B

Method B annualises the entered replacement value over the entered replacement cycle.

Selected horizon

The selected horizon is a simple extension of annualised replacement spend; it is not a forecast of price inflation or future operating conditions.

No automatic savings claims

It does not calculate laundry, energy, water, chemical, labour, guest, revenue or sustainability savings.

No financial promise

It does not provide a confirmed TCO, ROI, payback, warranty, quotation or product recommendation.
