Frequently
asked questions go here.
Did You Know That?
| "Perchloroethylene ("perc"),
which leaves a pungent smell on clothes, has been
linked to spontaneous abortion, infertility and is
a suspected carcinogen… |
| Perc "fumes can build up
quickly in an enclosed car, potentially causing a
narcotic effect on the central nervous system in
as little as half an hour"… |
| Newly cleaned clothes brought
home and placed in a closet may result in PCE (Perc)
levels within the closet more than 100 times the
level the federal government considers safe for
workers… |
| Workers and those who live near
dry cleaning establishments are at ever-greater
risk because of concentrated and frequent
exposure… |
| .. breast tissue does not clear
solvents as quickly as they are cleared from the
blood. Perc, in particular, is known to
concentrate in human breast milk."** |

Why doesn’t every dry cleaner just
switch to an environmentally safe cleaning method?
Most dry cleaners use equipment that
utilizes toxic solvents. The cost to upgrade to new,
environmentally safe equipment would require a major
expenditure which most existing operators are not
capable or willing to make.
Cleaner By Nature, starting fresh
and safe, came into being as a result of this need.
You can become part of the solution.
It's About Responsibility
| To protect you, the air, the soil
and water from the known carcinogenic effects of
"perc" and other toxic chemicals
commonly used by almost all other cleaners. *
| Return garments entrusted to our
care without harmful residues from toxic solvents.
| Operate our business in a
professional, socially responsible manner for the
benefit of our customers, our employees and our
communities. |
