“Converting to GreenEarth was one of the
best business decisions we have made in
our 58-year history.”
Shawn McCann, Best Cleaners
Connecticut
“I read all the promotional material you sent
us and I thought it sounded too good to be
true. I thought that if half of your claims
were true I would be happy, that it was a
lot of hype to sell the product. Well I am
delighted to say that every last word about
the benefits of GreenEarth Cleaning is true
and more.. We are producing the best
garment I have ever seen in dry cleaning
and I am a third generation dry cleaner,
have been in business all my life. I
especially love how soft, bright and
beautiful the silk garments are! My press-
ers love the fact that the clothes are less
wrinkled and easier to finish. Most of all, I
am so happy that I don’t have to breathe
perc anymore.”
Debbie Schuster, Blossom Hill Cleaners

“Siloxane D5 does not pose a danger to the
environment... it is virtually impossible for
Siloxane D5 to occur in any environmental matrix
at concentrations sufficient to cause damage.
Consequently, the Board has determined that
current uses of Siloxane D5 do not pose a risk
of danger to the environment. The Board has
further concluded that there is no potential for
future uses of Siloxane D5 to result in danger to
the environment.”

“Perc’s impact on the environment and on
humans (it’s a suspected carcinogen at very high
doses), as well as, its odor have given rise to three
eco-friendly alternatives. The most popular of
them, recommended by several experts we spoke
to…is a silicone-based solvent called GreenEarth.”
Real Simple Magazine, March2006 It isn’t easy being green.
Unless you’re GreenEarth®.
With every entrepreneur on the planet looking for “green” business opportunities today, it isn’t
always easy to make both a difference and a profit. With GreenEarth Cleaning, it pays to go
green. How well? Just ask one of the 1600+ Affiliate locations using GreenEarth.
Americans spend upwards of $9 billion dollars a year at the dry cleaners. Seventy percent
of those cleaners still use perchloroethylene, or perc, a 1940’s era cleaning solvent considered
by the EPA to be an air and water toxin and a likely human carcinogen. Exposure can lead to
increased risk of cancer, eye, nose, throat and skin irritation, and reduced fertility. Contamination
from spills and leaks can mean millions in clean up costs. Regulators and dry cleaners have
worked hard, and successfully, to reduce emissions and control many of the risks associated with
the use of perc. But California has determined that a more permanent solution is necessary. As
a result, they have banned perc, as well as the purchase of machines that use it. And while they
were the first state to do so, they likely won’t be the last. The upshot? Ready or not, a new era
of “dry greening” has begun.
What many people don’t realize is that going green is easier said than done. In all the talk about
sustainability, an important issue often overlooked is the sustainability of the business model. It
is a particularly difficult equation in dry cleaning. Perc is a very aggressive cleaning solvent and
hard to beat. Replacing machinery is expensive. There is no guarantee that additional
environmental legislation won’t be enacted. Different cleaning methods have different labor and
operating costs. The marketplace is overcrowded and highly fragmented, making it harder to
stand apart from the pack. Dry cleaners nationwide wrestle with how to protect the business for
future generations. In California, many lifelong perc cleaners are choosing to close their doors
rather than start over.
Why on earth would anyone want to get into dry cleaning at a time like this? Because now
there’s GreenEarth Cleaning. And for the first time, dry cleaners and their customers have a real
choice. Because GreenEarth is different. Different in how it protects the environment. Different
in what it does for clothes. Different in how it creates a competitive advantage for dry
cleaners. Different in how it can benefit your bottom line. And we’re not just marketers saying
that. GreenEarth Cleaning is a company formed and run by long-time dry cleaners, all intimately
familiar with the unique challenges of running a successful dry cleaning operation. The efficacy
1 1
and efficiency of our cleaning process have been optimized with the help of two of the world’s largest
companies, Procter & Gamble and General Electric, as well as with the collaboration of the industry’s
leading manufacturers of dry cleaning equipment, detergents and spotting agents.
Easy to be environmentally responsible. GreenEarth is so safe the EPA does not regulate it.
Which means it’s safe for the air, water and soil. Unlike hydrocarbon, the U.S. EPA has specifically
exempted it from the VOC regulation due to its very low reactivity in the air. The GreenEarth solution
is not a VOC; it is environmentally non-toxic and non-hazardous. If you wanted to, you could safely
rub it on your skin. In fact, you probably already do. That’s because GreenEarth’s solution is pure
liquid silicone—essentially liquefied sand. It’s the same base ingredient found in everyday shampoos,
conditioners and lotions. When released to the environment, GreenEarth safely breaks down into
its three natural elements – sand (SiO2) and trace amounts of water and carbon dioxide. So there’s
never any worry about expensive groundwater or soil contamination clean ups. Buying an existing
perc cleaner? Installing GreenEarth beforehand provides protection from any prior contamination.
Easy to trust. Over 30 million dollars in voluntary testing and independent regulatory reviews
confirm that the silicone used in GreenEarth’s cleaning system does not pose harm to people or to
the environment. But at GreenEarth, we do something remarkable with that information. We make
the results public. We’re proud to be the only dry cleaning alternative to openly report extensive
testing on its environmental and health and safety profile.
Easy on garments. Extensive IFI (International Fabricare Institute,
now the DLI or Dry Cleaning & Laundry Institute) testing confirms that
GreenEarth cleans as well as the industry standard perc with no
environmental concerns. In addition, the same tests show that with
GreenEarth, you can clean a wider variety of specialty fabrics and trims.
So garments most dry cleaners currently turn away or send out can be
processed in GreenEarth and contribute to your bottom line.
Easy to work with. GreenEarth isn’t hard or complicated to work with.
And, unlike perc, which has a strong chemical odor frequently associated
with headaches and dizziness, GreenEarth has no odor. Employees are so
much happier in an odorless shop!
Easy to save money. Because GreenEarth reduces a substantial
percentage of the labor in the dry cleaning process, Affiliates enjoy two
advantages over other cleaners. Labor costs are lower and productivity is
higher. Other money saving benefits include fewer claims due to damage,
shrinkage or fading, lower waste hauling costs, lower energy costs, minimal
to no environmental insurance costs and no future clean up costs.

Easy to grow sales. Affiliates who market their GreenEarth difference often see sales go up
immediately. GreenEarth has an instantly recognizable brand appeal and an evironmental
solution that is sustainable in every sense of the word. And because customers can actually see,
touch and smell the difference in their clothes, they tend to bring more items in, more often.
Even better, they recommend it to their friends and family. You don’t just get customers.
You get loyal customers.
Easy to promote. As a GreenEarth Affiliate, you have access to a wide variety of professionally
developed, high-quality, customizable advertising and promotional materials as a part of your
license fee. Email marketing, websites, ads, brochures, posters, direct mail postcards, Valpak,
Money Mailers, van wraps, hotel and route marketing, hang tags, garment care tags, counter
materials, press releases, customer letters, you name it—all designed to highlight what makes
your store(s) better and all easily customized with your store’s name, logo, address and
phone number.
Easy to get landlord approval. Remember, the silicone used in the GreenEarth Cleaning
process is so safe the EPA doesn’t regulate it—either in dry cleaning or in any of its other many
applications. So landlord concerns at locations where other dry cleaning solvents are
prohibited aren’t a concern with GreenEarth. In fact, Kimco, Regency Centers and Edens & Avant
are a few of the property management companies that are specifying GreenEarth at their
locations. To make approval easier with landlords not yet familiar with GreenEarth, we offer
professionally developed materials designed to educate them about the environmental and
traffic-building advantages GreenEarth can bring to their retail site.
Easy to afford equipment. The average price of a Class IIIA machine to run GreenEarth is
one-half to two-thirds less than CO2 machine systems, and about the same as comparable wet
cleaning machines. GreenEarth’s patented silicone solution can also run in most
hydrocarbon machines; if you are considering purchase of an existing business that runs
hydrocarbon, you would likely not need to purchase new machinery.
“Linden (GreenEarth) Cleaners in Darien, CN., is trying something new, as are hundreds of
other professional cleaners throughout the country. Environmental concerns and the telltale
odor of the standard solvent, perchloroethylene (or perc), have opened the door to three new
methods of dry cleaning. They are: GreenEarth, a silicone-based solvent used in modified
dry cleaning machines; liquid carbon dioxide (CO2) used in high-pressure cleaning machines;
and “wet cleaning” with plain water in computer-controlled washing machines…Using
identical sets of garments, we compared the new cleaning methods to conventional cleaning
with perc. The CO2 and silicone-based processes performed, as well as, or better than
conventional dry cleaning, for about the same price. Wet cleaning was less impressive.”
Consumer Reports, February 2003

“After reviewing a number of environmentally-friendly
technologies, I found the GreenEarth solution to be
the only real option for me. Equally important as
its performance is its affordable cost, which is
considerably less expensive than other alternatives.”
Mack Davis, Medlin-Davis Cleaners
Raleigh, NC
Look before you leap
Like any good businessperson, you will want to look at all your options before making a decision. In
fact, we encourage you to do so. Go online, talk with industry sales professionals and visit as many
plants as you can. When all is said and done, we’re confident you’ll find GreenEarth to be your dry
cleaning method of choice. Remember, we’re all former dry cleaners ourselves. We know what it
takes to be successful in this industry.
What about professional wet cleaning and CO2?
Both are very good choices environmentally, but less than one-third of one percent of dry cleaners
use CO2 or 100% wet cleaning today. Why? Largely because equipment, processing and finishing
costs are so much higher, and the processes so different, few operators have been able to turn a
profit using either system exclusively. Wet cleaning is optimally efficient when it represents 20-50%
of the overall processing in a dry cleaning plant. We believe it to be the optimal partner with the
GreenEarth system. The challenge CO2 operators face is that the large capital investment in
equipment typically dictates a higher pricing structure and/or a central plant with drop store operating
model, which can indicate a lower profit margin than packaged plants. The high pressure required
to turn CO2 gas into liquid can damage buttons, crush acetate linings and cause excessive wrinkling.
And with so few CO2 machines being sold, reliable parts and service over the long-term may remain a
concern. GreenEarth is a better choice for you.
Why not hydrocarbon solvent?
Sold under brand names like DF-2000® and EcoSolv® by Exxon-Mobil and Chevron-Phillips,
hydrocarbon solvent has been a popular alternative for dry cleaners looking to move away from
perc because it is affordable and offers familiarity in equipment design. That may be changing.
Hydrocarbon turns out not to be the “green” choice many thought it was. While certainly a big
improvement over perc, hydrocarbon poses a number of environmental concerns. It is classified as
a VOC, a likely contributors to smog formation, and volatile organic compounds have come under
increased regulatory scrutiny. Hydrocarbons are also listed by the EPA as a neurotoxin and skin and
eye irritant for workers and would likely require a clean up if spilled. The good news for operators
of plants running DF-2000® and EcoSolv® who are worried about the regulatory climate is that most
Class IIIA machines that use hydrocarbon solvent can easily switch to GreenEarth.
4 1
How does n-Propyl Bromide fit in?
A primary component of a number of brand names including Ensolve® and DrySolv®, n-Propyl
Bromide is a popular alternative for operators searching for a short-term “band aid” to
replacing perc. True, it can work in modified perc machines but it’s highly aggressive
properties (KB value of 125) can also create new problems with garment and machine damage.
Plus, n-Propyl Bromide does not solve the environmental dilemma. It’s still classified by the EPA
as a VOC and a likely reproductive toxin. At a minimum, its use in California would likely require
Proposition 65 warnings. The long range regulatory outlook is unclear. There remain serious
concerns about handling and the safety of workers subjected to exposure to n-Propyl Bromide,
and the effects on equipment when moisture or water is introduced into the solvent system.
What’s the story on SYSTEM K4?
Introduced to the European market in October of 2010, SYSTEM K4 is the newest alternative
solvent system on the market. Although Kruessler has chosen not to release details of K4’s
chemical composition, laboratory analysis has confirmed that the solvent is formaldehyde dibutyl
acetal, also known as dibutoxymethane. The higher KB value of SYSTEMK4 gives it a more
aggressive cleaning profile - closer to perc than most alternative solvents. Kruessler mandates
the use of four proprietary products (solvent, detergent, pre-spotter, water repellant) to operators
of SYSTEM K4. The combination of additives is designed to improve cleaning performance, as
well as, stabilize the solvent’s chemical composition and maintain the 143 º F flashpoint.
The K4 system requires a specific Class IIIA machine configuration. In an effort to remove as
much of the characteristic solvent odor from the garments as possible, machine manufacturers
have developed modifications to standard drying systems (fan inverters, multiple refrigeration
coils and expansion valves and button trap dampers). Other equipment modifications designed
to safeguard against “cracking” of the solvent include the elimination of carbon (cartridges) and
activated clay filtration (ACF) capabilities coupled with security features designed to lower the
probability of attaining unsafe distillation temperature levels.
Although positioned as eco-friendly, K4 is a significant VOC with minimum incremental reactivity
(MIR) that is more than three times higher than hydrocarbon solvents used in dry cleaning.
“We took a close look at how perc compares to the newer “green” processes in regards
to both cleaning and impact on the environment. We found that while perc is good on
greasy stains like oil and lipstick, GreenEarth, a liquid silicone cleaner that’s supposed
to degrade to sand, carbon dioxide and water, was the best overall at removing stains.
If it does break down as claimed, that’s good news for consumers and the planet.”
Good Housekeeping, July 28, 2011

“When we were looking at taking Tide’s history and heritage

to a great start in Kansas City. The consumer response to the
Tide Dry Cleaning test stores has been overwhelmingly

Gary Coombe, Procter & Gamble
be green with envy. Cincinnati, OH
The best part about being a GreenEarth cleaner is the instant appeal it creates with customers.
GreenEarth offers a fresh, unique way to dry clean, and people genuinely love it. In a sea of
sameness—where everyone talks about the same three benefits of quality, service and
convenience—you can stand out with something truly different.
While there are many unique benefits to GreenEarth Cleaning, our Affiliates find that the three
messages that attract the most new customers are “odor-free”, “gentle” and “environmentally
non-toxic”. Odor is the #1 process complaint in dry cleaning. And there has never been a time in
history when “green” has meant more to consumers. Consumers actually go out of their way for
benefits like these. Affiliates who market their difference report sales increases in the double digits,
year after year.
Win lifetime customers
Once customers try GreenEarth, they don’t want to go back to “regular” dry cleaning. That’s
because, unlike superficial marketing claims, GreenEarth offers customers a difference they can
actually see, feel and smell. Colors are brighter, whites are whiter and clothes are free of damage or
shrinkage. They are softer, drape nicely, and feel better on your skin. And of course, they no longer
have any nasty dry cleaning odor; clothes are always fresh and clean right out of the bag. Many
customers try GreenEarth because of what it does for the planet, but they become customers for life
because of what it does for their clothes!
Stand out in your community
Our name means alot. As a GreenEarth cleaner you stand apart. All too often, the quick,
transactional nature of dropping off and picking up dry cleaning makes it easy to forget just how
much customers care about the garments they have dry cleaned, and how much they care about
looking and feeling good in them. People don’t want to have their special, high-quality garments
cleaned by just anyone. They want a special, high-quality cleaner. One who is as gentle and
effective as they are environmentally friendly.

“When real estate agent Ellen Morrell recently moved into her Georgetown home, she
took a mountain of household items to her dry cleaner—down comforters, quilts, blankets.
When they came back, she was pleased with one thing that wasn’t there. “I definitely
noticed the difference in odor. They didn’t smell like dry cleaning,” Morrell said. “They
definitely were better. The colors stayed vibrant… (GreenEarth) just doesn’t break the fab-
ric down…Owner Joe Lothrop—who has been doing dry cleaning for 30 years and whose
father was in the business before him, already swears by it. “I’ll never use another solvent
in my entire life,” he declared recently while taking a visitor on a tour of his plant, which
is noticeably lacking any smell announcing it as a dry cleaner. In 30 years in the industry
I’ve never seen anything so revolutionary.”

Bravissimo Label this
the future of dry cleaning
It’s no secret that traditional dry cleaning solvents can be very harsh on fabrics and
ornamentation. Care label standards even have a symbol (circle F) for use in care instructions
when the aggressiveness of perc creates a damage risk for garments. “No perc” instructions
are nothing new. What is new, and very exciting for GreenEarth Affiliates, is the momentum
building toward care instructions that specifically recommend the GreenEarth Cleaning method.
What’s happening in care labeling?
The care labeling system, and the definition of its symbols, has strived to evolve over the years
along with the industry. But the truth is, marketplace relevance remains elusive. GreenEarth’s
silicone-based cleaning methodology is a case in point. Although the technology has been
available since 1999 and customers access it through more than 6,000 retail points of service
in more than forty countries, the organizations that govern U.S. and international care labeling -
the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the International Standards Organization (ISO) - have
yet to officially recognize it as a solvent alternative or include it in the definitions of approved
care symbols. And while this may change after the FTC completes its undertaking to propose
updated Rulemaking for Care Labeling, true progress takes years within any regulatory process.
Fortunately, leading garment manufacturers are not waiting for instructions from the FTC or the
ISO on what makes the best care instructions for the garments they are producing. They are
looking to GreenEarth as a branded solution provider for
the care and cleaning of garments they are making today. “Be green when you dry clean” instruction
Why? Because there is a new imperative for gentle and with GreenEarth
sustainable garment care and no other cleaning method can store locator

meet their needs as effectively as GreenEarth.
Will there be labels recommending GreenEarth?
There already are. More than six million labels were
produced in Europe last year and twelve million more are in 2012 for items
already in production so far this year. And this is just the now being sold
beginning. Because the truth is, these labels came about in stores.
before GreenEarth’s coordinated labeling program was
even deployed, as part of a grassroots initiative through our Affiliate in the United Kingdom,
A21
1Johnson’s Cleaners. Johnson’s has a 25% market share in the UK, and London is a global fashion
center; manufacturers frequently come to them for garment testing support. These first labels
illustrate the power of GreenEarth’s unique selling proposition - no other cleaning method can meet
the growing demand for textile care that is gentle, petroleum-free and widely available to the public.
To proactively leverage this opportunity, GreenEarth has officially launched a dedicated Garment
Care Initiative; we are devoting significant resources to garment testing, retailer support and
manufacturer outreach with one goal in mind: to secure care recommendations that drive new
business into the stores of our licensed Affiliates.
What is GreenEarth doing exactly?
GreenEarth is working on a number of fronts to make GreenEarth the recommended method of care
for garments today and in the future, including:
• Full-on support to manufacturers approaching GreenEarth and/or its Affiliates with requests for
garment testing, development of labels and consultation
• Proactive education efforts with manufacturers, retailers, suppliers and schools in the fashion
industry - making presentations, consulting with garment technologists, networking at trade
shows, collaborating on curriculum, etc.
• Ongoing development of dedicated presentation tools, video, print collateral and online
resources to support outreach efforts - for GreenEarth Cleaning and for Affiliates at the local
level to use in support initiatives with local retailers, anywhere around the globe
• Proactive testing and targeted outreach to garment technologists and top level executives of
manufacturers demonstrating the GreenEarth solution for care recommendations
• Placement of testing equipment where garments are made (Asia, Europe, United States)

1Fashioning the future
As part of our new Garment Care Initiative, we reach out to manufacturers and retailers on an
ongoing basis. Here are a few of the brands approved for GreenEarth care recommendations:
These brands represent cutting edge fashion. Topshop, for example, has worked some of fash-
ions biggest stars - Alexander McQueen, Celia Birtwell, Kate Moss and Jonathon Saunders, to
name a few. Miss Selfridge is known for using supermodels like Naomi Campbell and Yasmin le
Bon while Montague Burton has revolutionized men’s tailoring. The stable of iconic brands
predisposed to specifying GreenEarth Cleaning is destined to grow.

labels in garments. GreenEarth also provides support and
materials to Affiliates interested in forming local retail partnerships; educating salespeople on the
GreenEarth advantage and helping them maintain inventory in ready to wear condition are
excellent ways to build referral customer business.
The sustainability imperative
As manufacturers look at their business over the long-term, shareholder and consumer demand
compel them to invest in sustainability for bottom-line business health. For manufacturers
integrating sustainability into their business model, petroleum-based cleaning methodologies are a
strategic concern. Rather than stain their brand reputation, some are recommending
A23
1hand washing dry cleanable garments, a less than ideal solution for their upscale customers who
prefer hassle-free garment care. Many brands are embracing labels with the phrase “Be green when
you dry clean” and the GreenEarth web address as an ideal solution to the dilemma of sustainability
and transparency in their value chain.
The network makes it work
The gentle cleaning and environmentally non-toxic characteristics of the GreenEarth Cleaning method
appeal strongly to manufacturers and retailers, but GreenEarth’s worldwide network of licensed
Affiliates is the reason why the Garment Care Initiative is enjoying success.
• The breadth of our reach, both internationally and across the United States, means that customers
are able to comply with a GreenEarth care label recommendation
• The depth of our expertise, with decades of dry cleaning and specialty dry cleaning (leather, fur,
sequins) experience at the couture and museum-quality level, means that local Affiliates and
designers alike can rely on our knowledge and skilled craftsmanship for one-of-a-kind support
Dedicated to making a difference
GreenEarth is much more than solvent in a machine. Manufacturers recommend the GreenEarth
Cleaning process, not silicone solvent, because it is an entire system of care designed to provide the
best possible fabric care with the lowest overall environmental impact. Our process includes:
• Testing and approval of any additives for use in the system to ensure a green waste stream
• Innovation center and quality evaluation lab equipped with measurement devices to evaluate new
cleaning additives, methodologies and machine programs and scientifically quantify results
• Research and development efforts - both stand alone and in collaboration with our Affiliates,
machine and additive partners - to bring about new technologies and methodologies that improve
outcomes, cut energy and water consumption and reduce residual waste
• Examples of R&D initiatives: proprietary cold-filtration technology to reduce energy consumption
and improve cleaning efficacy, solvent heating to reduce pre and post spotting, proprietary
programs (to reduce cycle times, enable cleaning of fragile garments without mechnical action,
etc.) and unique, low cost GreenEarth machines configured to deliver optimal results without the
costly components required by the chemical and hazardous composition of other solvents
• Partnership with Dry Cleaning Laundry Institute (DLI), standards organizations and testing
companies (e.g. SGS) to independently test and measure performance results for manufacturers
• Always on call technical assistance for all licensed Affiliates to solve any problem, any day
• Dispute resolution service to ensure alignment of consumer, cleaner and manufacturer interests
“I am a researcher at the British Museum who is aiming to develop a non-aqueous treatment for

your bottom line.
GreenEarth is more than an eco-friendly cleaning system; it is a breath fresh of fresh air for
business. By the EPA’s calculation, dry cleaners that convert an existing shop or start up any new
green clean operation can expect to increase their profits by 5% and their return on investment by
78%. GreenEarth’s brand power gives dry cleaners an ‘Intel inside’ competitive edge that can help
bring a substantially higher percentage of new customers in the door. With the lifetime value of a dry
cleaning customer averaging between $4,000 and $7,000, an easily understood and highly
marketable brand can be a powerful advantage. Affiliates who market the GreenEarth difference are
reporting introductory sales increases anywhere from 10 to 70%, and year-on-year same store sales
increases consistently in the double digits. With GreenEarth Cleaning, it’s a whole new equation.
Higher sales
• Attract new customers, build loyalty and grow piece count. Affiliates who market their difference
report double digit sales growth year on year
• No need to turn away or send special garments out—an average of three items per week can
mean thousands more every year in net sales
• Allows more packaged plant operations, which offer more volume potential
Lower labor/production costs
• Significantly less classification means fewer loads per day and fewer lost/misplaced items than
traditional systems
• Faster, easier finishing—clothes come out less wrinkled, less linty, and static-free than
traditional systems or CO2 systems
• Less special handling—no special handling necessary on delicate silks, wedding dresses,
beaded gowns
• Time saved means more garments can be processed—more profits
Lower operating costs
• Lower waste hauling costs—up to 70% less waste by volume over traditional systems; some
waste haulers offer a savings of 60% over perc and 22% over petroleum on each 55-gallon drum
of waste
• Lower energy costs: run full loads—more garments cleaned in fewer loads
• Combining filter mediums such as activated clays can significantly reduce utility demand for
solvent purification—by 85%
8 1• No need for environmental insurance or worry about future clean up costs
• Excellent mileage—Affiliates report on average more than 1200 pounds/gallon
• Package plants afford big increases in efficiency
• No permitting fees or annual inspections in most air districts; depending upon the landlord,
clean up insurance expense may not be necessary
Decreased claims expense
• Gentle on all fabrics; won’t damage leather trims, rubber backing, decorative trims, beads
sequins or polyvinyl; won’t dissolve glue and adhesives
• No shrinkage or fading
• Minimal damage claim exposure; on average, Affiliates report a 90% reduction in damage
claim costs
• Recommended by more garment manufacturers than any other solvent
Minimize time and hassle on environmental compliance
• GreenEarth is not regulated by RCRA, CERCLA, EPA or California Proposition 65
• Officially affirmed by California’s Air Resources Board as an acceptable solvent alternative,
and, based on the available exposure information, “the use of D5 in GreenEarth’s patented
dry cleaning process will not pose a risk to the public living near businesses using D5”
• Significantly less time on environmental and regulatory paperwork and reporting
• D5 silicone, per Environment Canada, “does not pose a danger to the environment or its
biological diversity” and based on their comprehensive review, “the projected future of
siloxane D5 will not pose a danger to the environment or its biological diversity.”
Landlord preference
• Non-hazardous solvent means no liability issues
• Brand appeal builds retail traffic
• Renew leases at current locations and obtain leases at locations that previously wouldn’t
allow dry cleaners
• Greenfield sites can be built to meet the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED (Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design) certification specifications
• Check with us for a list of landlords that have “preapproved” GreenEarth Cleaning
“Current Kimco tenants can continue to use perc until their lease expires. When their lease
expires, if tenants desire to remain in the center, they have the option to either convert their
business to one of the approved green technologies or convert to a drop-off/pick-up store.
The options that are approved for Kimco centers are the GreenEarth Cleaning method...Wet
cleaning...and Liquid carbon dioxide process...It is important to note that Kimco does not
consider hydrocarbon an acceptable alternative to perc.”
Scott Gerber, Kimco Realty blog post 4/24/2012
9 1“(GreenEarth) as an alternative dry cleaning
solvent will not pose adverse health risks to the
public . . . ARB sees no need to regulate its use.”
California Air Resources Board, 2008
How the GreenEarth Cleaning Affiliate
program works.
Annual license fee
Because the GreenEarth Cleaning system is a patented process, and both our name and logo
are trademarked, it is necessary to charge an annual licensing fee for the use of our patents and
trademarks. In doing so, we believe we’re not only protecting the exclusivity of the GreenEarth
brand, but protecting our Affiliates and the investment they make in GreenEarth as well.
The fee for the first machine is $2,500. For each additional machine in the same location the
fee drops by 50%, to just $1,250. The license gives your business the right to use and market
GreenEarth’s exclusive solution. The license period begins on the first day of the month following the
month in which start up takes place, and fees are renewed annually every 12 months. Renewals can
be paid in a lump sum or in monthly installments.
Membership has its privileges
GreenEarth Cleaning Affiliates enjoy many advantages:
• GreenEarth membership. As a GreenEarth Affiliate, you join an exclusive, worldwide
network of quality cleaners building their business with GreenEarth’s proprietary cleaning system,
brand name and logo.
• Affiliate networking. As a member of our Affiliate Network, you gain instant access to the
ideas, expertise and experience of the industry’s best and brightest. Affiliates share learning with
one another in a number of ways:
• Informally with phone calls, emails and visits—the best way to learn
• Online, in a password protected website for Affiliates with social media connectivity
• Through GreenEarth Solutions, our Affiliate e-newsletter
• In free regional workshops and webinars and at regional trade show meetings
• Environmental advocacy. We work aggressively behind the scenes with lobbyists,
legislators and regulators to position GreenEarth advantageously at every level: local, state,
national and international.
• Operational assistance. Whether you are starting up for the first time, troubleshooting or
evaluating ways to optimize your operation, GreenEarth is there to help. Just pick up the
10 1phone. Go online and watch step-by-step videos, or drop us an email. If your need is
best served in person, we’ll make a site visit. It’s that simple. We also work closely with
machine manufacturers, detergent and solvent suppliers, so whatever expertise you need,
you’ll have it.
• Technical expertise. Whether you need advice regarding programming, filtration
optimization or processing high risk/specialty garments, we’re here to help. Our technical
support team members are long time dry cleaners and specialty garment cleaning providers
themselves, averaging 30 years of experience each, so they bring a world of hands-on
expertise to bear on your problem.
• Customer service support and expertise. Whatever your need, we’re available to help
you and help you better serve your customers. Need help finding a silicone supplier?
Looking to order degradable poly? Want suggestions on effectively training counter staff?
Relax, we can tell you how.
• Marketing services. With GreenEarth’s professionally developed marketing tools, it has
never been easier to differentiate and market your business. We offer professional email
and website marketing services and a full complement of cutting-edge marketing materials
that can be customized as needed to your store. Posters, direct
mail post cards, brochures, hang tags, garment care tags,
counter cards, ads, press releases, buttons, Valpak, Money Mailer,
van wraps, outdoor billboards...everything you might need. No
need to hire a marketing agency. Have a question or need advice?
We have experienced professionals ready to help.
• Website. GreenEarth maintains an active, high quality website
where customers, potential employees, community partners and
potential investors can quickly and easily find out more about
your business. With our site behind you, you can project the
image and professionalism of a much larger brand. In fact,
GreenEarth is the largest retail brand of dry cleaning in the world.
• Online store locator. Many consumers today search for
information online prior to visiting a brick-and-mortar store. Every
GreenEarth Affiliate is listed in our “Find a Store” feature on our
website. It directs customers to your store 24/7. We also list
our site with many search engines and “green” business directories, and link to a whole host
of “green sites” to ensure that consumers know where to find a GreenEarth cleaner.
11 1Joining our growing network of successful, quality operators
After you have had a chance to review this informational packet and conduct some preliminary
due diligence, the next step is to talk. We will answer any questions you may have and if you
would like to visit some GreenEarth plants in your region, we can help with that too.
From our end, we will be looking to make sure that the “fit” is right. Our Affiliates represent the
“face” of the GreenEarth brand to the public. You won’t be happy, and neither will we, if we don’t
share the same values and commitment to operational excellence. Partnering with like-minded
business owners who put customers, quality and environmental responsibility first helps protect your
investment and ours.
Learn the local regs
Your next steps will be to learn about any local regulations you would need to comply with and
assess your equipment and supply needs. It is smart to get in touch with your state’s department of
environmental protection and with your local fire marshal regarding fire codes.
A word about fire codes. There is no one-size-fits-all with fire code compliance; each municipality
has its own set of zoning and building codes. What you should know is that although these codes
dictate what the standards are, how those standards are met is often a call that can be made by the
individual fire marshal. Since their main concern is overall life safety, fire marshals are often willing to
work with operators on alternative ways to make a plant safer for the community. Early warning
systems and fire walls, for example, help protect people while sprinkler systems protect only
equipment and buildings.
Machines, detergents, GE and P&G
GreenEarth, in partnership with Procter & Gamble and General Electric, both founding members of
GreenEarth Cleaning LLC, has conducted extensive testing and optimization of our system.
We have developed an approved list of several different machines, detergents and spotting agents
that meet our quality standards to make your selection of a quality system easy and keep the prices
competitve. You will want to talk with the manufacturing reps of course, but we are happy to
co-consult with you on these decisions and share our experience.
In no time, the final step
The final step is to sign a Letter of Understanding (LOU), a contract that represents your official
membership application. After you join the Affiliate Network, you will be contacted by a GreenEarth
representative who will help you prepare for start up. The whole process is very simple. You can be
an approved GreenEarth operator within weeks!
12 1“Our business has grown by over 50% and we continue to be amazed at the number of
new customers we have each day…we continue to average more than two new customers
each day, six days a week. Approximately half of these people were looking for a green dry
cleaner.”
Joe Peterson, Prestige Cleaning Center
Minneapolis, MN
“Everything I’d heard about GreenEarth was true. Clothes have no odor at all, very little
linting and static electricity, blacks are blacker, colors are deeper, whites are whiter.
We’ve been throwing in beads, glued trim, a 50 year old baptism gown, anything and
everything and it comes out looking great! Everything just feels softer and drapes nicer.
Aside from the more rigid maintenance schedule and being careful not to introduce
spotting water into the machine, the training and conversion was a total non-event and
much smoother than anticipated.”
Andy Lien, Camelot Cleaners
Fargo, ND
“I really like being a part
of the GreenEarth
family and I am proud
to be an Affiliate. I work
hard to differeniate
myself and my
business and
GreenEarth has helped
me accomplish that.
Having GreenEarth in
my plant is more than
just which solvent I use.
It’s a community, it’s
a family, it’s the way I
want to do business.”
