Our GreenEarth Process

Unlike traditional dry cleaning methods, the GreenEarth® process uses no hazardous chemicals. The process cleans using pure liquid silicone. The process leaves no air, soil or water pollutants.

GreenEarth was discovered by a scientist working with a solution used in cosmetics who realized it was removing the fats and dirt from his hands without drying them out. He wondered if it could do the same for clothes. Silicone has been around for a long time and has a wide variety of uses, but no one had found a way to use it for dry cleaning. The process of doing so was patented and now forms one of several baseline patents for the GreenEarth Cleaning system. It cleans as effectively as traditional dry cleaning without costing more to operate. Even more remarkable, it can actually improve the look and feel of fabrics.

Clemson Cleaners owner Wright Henry says: “One of the great things about the GreenEarth system is that it’s more gentle on the clothing, so we can clean a wider range of garments,” he said. “And you know that chemical smell you sometimes get when you get a suit back from the dry cleaners? This process gives you none of that. I’m just excited to still be able to do an excellent job of cleaning and help the world out as best I can at the same time.”
