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

bulletOperate our business in a professional, socially responsible manner for the benefit of our customers, our employees and our communities.
