Eco friendly cleaning process at the La Mar plant in Miramar
Eco friendly cleaning

Cleaning that is gentler on fabric and on Florida

We moved away from harsh solvents because they are hard on garments and harder on the people who work with them every day. Better for the fibre, better for the plant, better for the water table underneath it.

  • Gentler solvents
  • Less water waste
  • Safer for staff
  • Longer garment life
La Mar eco friendly dry cleaning
Why we changed

The gentle process is also the one that lasts

Aggressive solvents strip colour and break down fibre over time. A garment cleaned gently twenty times looks better than the same garment cleaned harshly five times. The environmental case and the garment care case point the same way.

It also matters for the people in the building. Our staff spend eight hours a day with these processes, and that shaped the decision as much as anything else did.

  • Gentler on colour and fibre
  • Lower solvent load
  • Reduced water waste
  • Safer working conditions
  • Reusable garment bags on request
  • Hangers taken back for reuse
Small things that add up

What you can do at your end

Most of the waste in dry cleaning is packaging, and that part is easy to fix.

1

Give hangers back

Leave your old hangers in the bag. We take them back and reuse them.

2

Ask for a reusable bag

We will swap the disposable cover for a reusable garment bag on request.

3

Clean less often

We will tell you when something does not need cleaning yet. Over cleaning wears clothes out.

4

Combine your orders

One larger collection instead of three small ones means fewer van miles to your door.

Before you book

Questions we get asked

Is eco friendly cleaning as effective?

Yes. It is gentler on the fibre, not weaker on the stain. Stains are treated by hand either way.

Do you take hangers back?

Yes. Leave them in the bag and we reuse them.

Can I avoid the plastic cover?

Ask for a reusable garment bag when you book and we will use that instead.

Is it more expensive?

No. It is the standard process here, not an upgrade you pay for.
