SITEX Corporation began operations in 1961 and offers a range of services including uniform and linen rental, mats, mops, customized apparel, promotional products, screen printing, embroidery, as well as first aid and restroom sanitation solutions throughout Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, and Illinois. Currently led by Wes and Jon Sights, the company represents the third generation of the Sights family involved in the laundry sector.

History

The company was originally founded as Industrial Uniform Services, Incorporated by James and Gladys Sights in Henderson, Kentucky, in January 1961. Through its expansion under Rental Uniform, Inc., the business extended its reach into Southwest Kentucky, West Tennessee, Southeast Missouri, and Southern Illinois. To better represent its diversified offerings, the family also operated under the trade name Sani-Clean Linen & Uniform Service.

In August 1995, the enterprise adopted the name SITEX Corporation, a name derived from Sights Textiles. In 2003, SITEX collaborated with J.E. Shekell to build a 72,000-square-foot laundry facility located in Henderson. The company's footprint grew further following the acquisition of Hart's Rental Uniform Services, LLC in December 2008.

In February 2024, SITEX became part of Fortune 500 firm Cintas through acquisition.
