The expanding textile industry is anticipated to boost the growth of the ironers market in the coming years. The textile industry comprises the production, manufacturing, and processing of textiles and related products. Electric ironers are essential in this sector for eliminating wrinkles and unwanted creases from fabrics. They provide numerous benefits, such as enhanced efficiency, lower labor costs, improved quality, and increased safety. For example, in March 2025, the European Environment Agency, a Denmark-based government body, reported that in 2023, the European Union's textile and clothing sector generated a turnover of $199.51 billion (EUR 170 billion) and employed approximately 1.3 million people across 197,000 companies. In 2022, the EU exported 4 million tonnes of finished textiles, valued at $85.67 billion (EUR 73 billion). Consequently, the growth of the textile industry is driving demand for ironers.

Leading companies in the ironers market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as smart flatwork ironers with integrated fabric sensors and automated control systems, to improve ironing precision, reduce labor costs, and enhance energy efficiency in commercial laundry operations. These smart ironers use heated belts or plates combined with intelligent sensors that detect fabric thickness and moisture content, automatically adjusting temperature and pressure to ensure consistent, high-quality results. For example, in October 2023, Imesa, an Italy-based laundry equipment manufacturer, launched its SmartControl series of flatwork ironers featuring touchscreen interfaces, automatic loafing adjustment, and energy-saving modes, enabling laundries to achieve optimal performance and uniform ironing across various textiles. Such innovations are particularly valuable for hotels, hospitals, and industrial laundries where process automation and consistent quality are critical.

In March 2025, BOSS, a Germany-based provider of luxury fashion and lifestyle products, partnered with LauraStar to launch the ITZYPLUS Limited Edition steamer. Through this collaboration, BOSS aimed to expand its premium lifestyle offerings and enter the high-end garment care segment by leveraging LauraStar’s advanced Swiss steam technology. LauraStar, based in Switzerland, manufactures luxury steamers and garment care appliances, including ironing systems.
