Reuse is a part of the business
“A long-term lifecycle and reusability are essential in product categories such as linens, clothing and dust control. This requires a strong tool like ABSSolute,” explains Gerard van de Donk, CEO of ABS. Each item can be registered using radio-frequency identification (RFID) for automatic identification and tracking. In addition to tracking and following items, the system supports many specific invoicing methods as well as inventory management.

The business areas work together and support one another, ensuring that the functionality can be scaled as needed. The software is used for:
- Linen and workwear in health and medical care

These business are all essential to society and ABS’ systems must therefore function robustly and smoothly.

Investments in innovations and security are crucial for us to retain our position as market leaders. ABS has been there for nearly 40 years and our customer base knows that they can trust us for another 40 and more,” concludes Gerard van de Donk.
