What We Do?
GREEN DRYCLEANING
We use no harmful chemicals such as Perchloroethylene which has been linked to liver disease, kidney disease and reproductive disorders. It’s used by 85% of the dry cleaning industry.We use biodegradable, health friendly, non toxic detergents instead of the toxic.We introduce wet cleaning using lagoon Advanced Care System which is delicate on fabrics and gentle on environment.
WET CLEANING
PERC is dangerous for our health and that of our children, pets and our environment. We are exposed to PERC via our skin when wearing clothes which it has been used on. We also risk exposure through air and water, which it gets into via the dry cleaning process.
Wet cleaning removes this risk of exposure to toxic perchloroylene. It also has the associated benefits of resulting in a softer, fresher garment, which has been treated in a more gentle, caring way. Wet cleaning has been used for decades in the US and France, where PERC is banned, as well as some other European countries.
The Hohenstein Institute has conducted comparative tests on the effects of both lagoon® Advanced Care and solvent cleaning on delicate garments, in laboratory condition.
After more than 10 cleaning cycles, the tests have shown equal or comparable results for both technologies, in terms of textile wear, dimensional change and color loss. Test results available upon request.
The wool programs in the lagoon® wet-cleaning system have been approved by The Woolmark Company since 2004 for cleaning Woolmark garments labelled as dry-clean only. In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark Logo trade mark is a certification trade mark.
