1. What is dry cleaning?

Dry cleaning is a dry-in-dry-out washing method that uses fully enclosed washing equipment to wash clothes with organic chemical solvents to remove stains such as oil stains. Because there is basically no water in organic chemical solvents, it is called dry cleaning, which is only relative to water washing. The fully enclosed dry cleaner will distill the solvent after each washing to ensure that pure solvent is used for each washing.

Second, the advantages and disadvantages of dry cleaning

The advantage of dry cleaning is that it has a remarkable effect on removing grease pollution from clothes, and compared with washing, it does not shrink, has good shape retention, and can be sterilized and moth-proof. Although the dry cleaning machine has a large capital investment, it is fast and efficient. Dry cleaning clothes is relatively simple and quick, and it is easier to iron. Clothes suitable for dry cleaning mainly include suits, dresses, silk fabrics, woolen cloth, cashmere and fur.

However, dry cleaning solvents can cause damage to some clothing fabrics and decorations. For example, some artificial leather fabrics will become brittle and hard after dry cleaning, and the coated fabrics will become hard after dry cleaning, and the coating will dissolve and fall off; Clothes made of elastic materials such as elastic bands will lose elasticity after dry cleaning; Some ornaments may melt and so on. Moreover, dry cleaning can not remove non-greasy and water-soluble stains, milk stains, fruit stains and other stains, but it is easy to make stains more stubborn. Therefore, not all clothes are suitable for dry cleaning.

The above is a little knowledge about dry cleaning. Investors in dry cleaners should know something about this, which is more conducive to the operation of dry cleaners.
