Wet Cleaning
Professional Wet Cleaning is an aqueous process for cleaning a full range of garments using state of the art technology, biodegradable detergents and additives, followed by appropriate drying and restorative finishing procedures.
CO2 Cleaning
The CO2 process is a sub-critical carbon dioxide based garment cleaning process that has been developed for use by commercial and retail dry-cleaners. This process does not produce any new CO2 and, thus, does not contribute to global warming.
