Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council - HLAC

06/02/2026

Patients rarely see the systems that protect them. They do experience the results: safe environments, confident caregivers, and healthcare textiles that have been processed under standards designed to support infection prevention. HLAC accreditation exists to bring rigor and independent review to that work.

For leaders, that is the real value of accreditation: it connects behind-the-scenes operations to the people those operations ultimately serve. Learn more about HLAC’s accreditation approach and why it matters for patients and healthcare workers: https://hlacnet.org/accreditation/

An accreditation mark should represent more than a moment in time. HLAC describes its program as a three-year, independent third-party accreditation that evaluates the full textile processing operation. That framing matters because patient safety depends on consistent systems, training, and follow-through. Learn more about the program: https://hlacnet.org/accreditation/

✅ Good habits are easier to sustain when teams have practical tools in hand.

In healthcare operations, trust is built through what can be demonstrated consistently. HLAC accreditation emphasizes standards, process discipline, and continuous learning across the laundry operation. That makes documentation, training, and repeatable ex*****on more than compliance tasks. They are part of how organizations protect quality every day.
