Professional wet cleaning continues to grow as a popular service offered by clothes cleaners, and as a healthier substitute to the use of dry cleaning chemicals. Professional wet cleaning is a water-based, nontoxic, energy-efficient technology that uses computer-controlled washers and dryers, specially formulated biodegradable detergents, and specialized finishing equipment to process garments that are otherwise dry cleaned.

Professional wet cleaning is the most accessible of the alternatives to dry cleaning because the equipment used is affordable to small businesses. Wet cleaning uses water and biodegradable detergent in special equipment that washes clothes very gently and sets a specific humidity level for the drying process. Also, special pressing and tensioning equipment is utilized to prevent shrinkage and maintain garment shape. Wet cleaning can be used on most garments labeled "dry clean only."

ADVANTAGES OF WET CLEANING FOR CUSTOMERS

• Cleaner clothes. Much cleaner clothes. Seriously.  Way cleaner!

• Wet cleaned garments will never develop that yellow look commonly seen on items that have been repeatedly dry cleaned with perc.

• Clothes don’t come home with residual amounts of harmful chemicals like perc, which off-gas and contaminate cars and homes.

• Clothes don’t have that stinky “dry cleaned” smell (again, toxic perc).

• Wet cleaning is often able to remove stains a traditional dry cleaner can’t fix.

• Garments fade less and the fabrics don’t incur as much damage from repeated washings.

ADVANTAGES OF WET CLEANING FOR THE COMMUNITY

• Wet cleaning eliminates the risk of perc contaminating groundwater.

• Neighbors are safer from air exposure to perc.

• Wet cleaning is more energy efficient than dry cleaning, resulting in a reduced carbon footprint.
