Hotel Laundry Linens

How do hotels get sheets and towels so perfectly white?

I've tried bleach, oxyclean, and even bluing, and I can't get my linens that white. Anyone out there who works in the hotel or laundry business and knows the secret?

For one thing they only wash whites, never any colors mixed in which can cause them to become dingy. Another, the water temperature is 160F and we have automatic dispensers for detergent and bleach. I'm not sure if the detergent is an extra strength product or not, I don't think so. But probably the biggest factor is that at the first sign of yellowing or stains.......they're thrown away! That would be impractical to do at home but it's probably the main reason they always look so white.
