Success Stories - Dry & Wetclean Industry

Marilyn Fleming
Owner & Operator of Dry & Wetcleaning Establishments, Milwaukee, WI

I've worked in the dry cleaning industry for 20-years, and presently operate three fabricare locations called "Natural Cleaners" throughout the metro-Milwaukee area. We offer both dry and wet cleaning to customers.

Although some garments are cleaned better by using traditional drycleaning methods, most garments including wool, linen, rayon, silk - even beaded gowns and leather-trimmed pieces - can be effectively wet cleaned. Fabrics cleaned by natural methods smell fresh and tend to be cleaner, softer and brighter.

Here at Natural Cleaners, we are proud of our wet cleaning results. Much of our success is a result of our UniMac wet cleaning system, which enables us to successfully manage the wet cleaning process. UniMac's line of computer controlled washing and drying equipment helps us meet the wash temperature, cylinder speed, mechanical action, cleaning agents, and moisture removal requirements that each type of garment has. We are now able to wet clean an even greater percentage of our garments - even some which are supposedly "dry clean only".

The UniMac wet cleaning system has been a good business investment. Alternatives to traditional dry cleaning are the wave of the future, and offering those alternatives sustains my business.
