Sustainability

Sustainability measures and environmental awareness are the keys to achieving a necessary balance, and it involves meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Sustainability has become a critical issue in today’s world, as people have become more keenly aware of the impact of their actions on the environment. It is essential to balance economic growth with environmental protection and social well-being to ensure that we leave a habitable planet for future generations. 

 

However, as many industries incorporate the most groundbreaking and proven best practices around sustainability into their everyday actions, the dry cleaning and garment care industry has been left in the past. 

Over 60% of traditional dry cleaners in the US still use harmful, cancer-causing chemicals, like PERC (perchloroethylene).

At Presso, we are committed to promoting sustainability in all aspects of our business, from the materials we use, to our proprietary deodorization and disinfection solutions, to the way we operate our facilities. We believe that sustainability is not only good for business and society as a whole, but that future generations hang in the balance without it.

Textile Manufacturing

Textile Manufacturing

According to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions and is the second-largest consumer of water worldwide. Textile manufacturing also produces a significant amount of waste, including hazardous chemicals, dyes, and synthetic fibers, which can harm the environment and human health if not manages properly.
