Our Commitment to the Environment
At Central Dry Cleaners, we are committed to reducing our impact on the environment. We comply with DEFRA's entire solvent emissions directive and have been issued with a permit to dry clean. Since October 31st, 2007, all dry cleaners must regulate how much solvent they use in order to comply with the regulations set out by DEFRA. This means that we have to weigh how much work we are cleaning and check that we are not using too much solvent which may harm the environment.
