Oshkosh, Wis. — August 24, 2026 — Continental recently introduced the new CA-Series Dryer, a high-performance, competitively positioned dryer line engineered to deliver efficient drying, intuitive operation and long-term durability for self-service laundries. 
 
The new CA-Series expands Continental’s vended equipment offering with 30-, 50-, 75-, 80- and 115-pound dryer capacities, including space-saving 30- and 45-pound stacked models. The expanded lineup gives laundry owners greater flexibility when designing stores and matching dryer capacities with companion washers.

The line also introduces Continental’s largest-ever vended dryers, including:

  • The new “narrow” 80-pound capacity model that fits through a standard 36-inch doorway.
  • A new 115-pound capacity dryer.

“With capacities that match companion washers, along with new larger-capacity models and stacked configurations, vended laundry owners can better meet customer demand while improving store efficiency,” said Continental Laundry Solutions Vice President of Sales Joel Jorgensen. “The new CA-Series Dryer line brings more choices and larger drying capacities while providing owners with reliable equipment that delivers long-term value.”

Ease of serviceability is among the many advantages of the CA-Series. A front-hinged control panel provides quick access to major electrical and gas components, while removable rear service panels simplify maintenance of motors, belts, fans and utility connections. A keyed lint drawer with a stainless steel micro-mesh filter screen allows for fast cleaning and the microprocessor control continuously monitors machine performance with self-diagnostic reporting display to help minimize downtime.

Operators will also appreciate intuitive controls and flexible programming, including:

  • Bright, scrolling-message micro LED display with three temperature selections.
  • Programmable cycle times, automatic cooldown and cycle pause.
  • Coin/token-only, hybrid or alternative payment configurations supporting all forms of payment solution options.
  • Incremental vend time, full-cycle pricing and top-off drying options.

Built for durability and everyday ease of use, CA-Series Dryers feature an ever-bright stainless steel cylinder backplate with galvanized cylinder walls and lifters, a large tempered glass door, ergonomic twin door handles with magnetic door closure and a durable white powder-coated cabinet. Optional stainless steel cabinet fronts and full stainless steel cylinders are available for store owners seeking enhanced corrosion resistance and premium aesthetics.

Designed for fast, efficient drying, the CA-Series utilizes efficient axial airflow for stack models and a radial airflow system on single-pocket machines. The radial airflow system works with mechanical cylinder rotation to lift and separate bulky loads for quicker, more even drying. Optimized airflow and balanced heat input help reduce drying times while lowering utility consumption.

Standard models are available in 208-240V/60Hz/1-phase configurations, with additional voltage options and LP conversion kits available on select models. Reversing cylinder operation is standard on stack models and an optional upgrade for select three-phase single-pocket models. It’s also standard on the 115-pound dryer.

The new Continental CA-Series Dryers are ideal for laundromats seeking efficient drying performance, flexible payment options, simplified maintenance and expanded capacity choices to meet today’s evolving customer demands.
