Lapels Dry Cleaning to unveil GreenEarth® Cleaning solution at new Needham, Mass. location

Lapels Dry Cleaning, an innovative, environmentally friendly dry cleaning company headquartered in Hanover, Massachusetts, recently announced its newest location in Needham, Mass, will use GreenEarth Cleaning Solution.

GreenEarth represents the dry cleaning industry’s only non-toxic cleaning alternative. GreenEarth silicone’s unique, non-aggressive cleaning solution enables it to penetrate fabrics and remove soils without chemically interfering with the textile fibers themselves, helping to maintain their “like-new” look and feel.

“Our new relationship with GreenEarth is a game-changer,” said Kevin Dubois, CEO of Lapels Dry Cleaning. “We have taken great lengths to making sure our dry cleaning stores minimize impact to the environment. That stems from the paint we use on the walls to recycling hangers. Utilizing GreenEarth at our new Needham, Mass. store makes us a 100 percent non-toxic operation.”
