Life's Better When It's GREEN

Accomplishment

Wet Cleaning Technology

Professional wetcleaning is a safe, energy-efficient method of cleaning “Dry Clean Only” clothes using water as a solvent (rather than chemicals) with a combination of special soaps and conditioners. Just about every garment that can be dry cleaned can be processed by wetcleaning, including tailored suits, silk dresses, cashmere sweaters, wool blazers, knit skirts and linen shirts, among many others. Once wetcleaned, items are dried using a dryer with complete control over drying variables, including moisture level, rotation, reversing and temperature. Items are then finished.

Accomplishment

Steam Pipe Insulation

Surfaces, such as the pipework and fitting in this facility, can operate at temperatures far above the ambient temperature and the heat loss can be considerable. Because this heat flow is undesirable, thermal insulation of the piping and fittings introduces thermal resistance and reduces this heat loss. When this heat loss is reduced, the time the boiler is required to run to provide the necessary heat for the process is also reduced.
