Traditional Dry Cleaning Process

Do you wondered what dry cleaning means? You drop off your clothes, wait two days, and take home your magically cleaned clothing with complimentary hangers and an elusive chemical odor. What happens to your clothes at the cleaner? How did they get that nasty stain out without using water?  And, seriously, what is that smell? Your clothes are submerged in a toxic liquid solvent and then ironed.  Your clothes are magically cleaned and ready to wear another day.  But what exactly is the magical chemical? The chemical is Tetrachloroethylene.

Tetrachloroethylene is a nonflammable colorless liquid, a manufactured chemical used for dry cleaning and metal degreasing. Other names for Tetrachloroethylene include Perchloroethylene, PCE, Perc, Tetrachloroethene, and Perchlor.

According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, exposure to very high concentrations of tetrachloroethylene can cause dizziness headaches, sleepiness, incoordination confusion, nausea, unconsciousness, and even death.

This is not something you need in your home.
