Be kind to your clothes and to the environment, too |
Do you ever spare a thought for the environment when you take your clothes into the High Street drycleaners? Maybe you should, for traditional methods of dry cleaning are not at all environmentally friendly. In fact, a cocktail of carbon and petroleum-based solvents is used in the dry cleaning process. The solvents themselves are regulated due to the damage they cause to the environment. And the long drying process which removes the solvents from the garments after cleaning uses precious energy. At last there is a green alternative to traditional dry cleaning. It’s a process that is much kinder to the environment. It is as effective at cleaning as the solvents-based system but it leaves your clothes free of the nasty after-effects of traditional dry cleaning such as sticky residue and the pungent smell of solvents. The best news of all? You can take full advantage of this new green dry cleaning service thanks to Paul Howard. We now offer this dry cleaning service to everyone. Just drop off your dry cleaning – it doesn’t matter whether we originally sold the garments or not – and your professionally cleaned clothes will be ready for collection in a few days. We guarantee they will be spotlessly clean and smell sweet and fresh. The reason why this is such a green alternative is that carbon dioxide is used as the cleaning agent rather than solvent. The gas is cooled and compressed into a clear liquid which is a very effective, yet gentle cleaning substance. You will be surprised at the quality of cleanliness, and you will appreciate the fact that this is no more expensive than having your clothes dry cleaned on the High Street. But above all it’s another small step in the process of saving our planet. |
