Revolution Cleaners opened for business in 2004 with the intention of raising the cleaning standard in both service and process. We introduced a new cleaning technology and became Denver's only true environmentally friendly dry cleaner. We are firmly committed to serving our customers and the environment in the best way possible. That philosophy shows in our dedication to customer satisfaction, quality service and through our sustainable business practices:

• We are Denver's true environmentally friendly cleaner, using the only non-toxic technologies available.
• We guarantee the quality of our product.
• We use wind power to run our plant.
• Our vans use alternative fuels.
• Our uniforms and laundry bags, wherever possible, are made from organic cotton and renewable hemp fiber.
• We use renewable resources in our stores such as bamboo hardwood and cork.
• Our employees are highly trained garment care professionals.

Our Technology
At Revolution Cleaners, we use liquid carbon dioxide (CO2) as the primary cleaning method. And for certain water-soluble stains and fabrics, we use a high-tech wet washing system. These are the only toxin-free systems currently available.

Our dry cleaning process uses naturally occurring and reclaimed CO2 as the cleaning solution. Under pressure, CO2 becomes an odorless, non-toxic liquid with unparalleled cleaning characteristics. Consumer studies rate CO2 as the best dry-cleaning method on the market. And it's as natural as the air we exhale. It's non-hazardous and non-flammable. It's better for your clothes, better for the earth and it's the same price as traditional full-service cleaning-without the nasty chemicals and fumes.

Better for your clothes
CO2 has excellent cleaning properties and dissolves stains as well or better than the toxic substances other cleaners use. We naturally clean delicate fabrics such as leather, down, silk, beads, sequins, wool, Spandex and nylon. Plus no heat is involved in the process, so clothes last longer and feel softer. In addition, without heat, stains aren't set and stain removal is still possible after treatment. And best of all, your clothes won't ever have that chemical dry cleaning smell!

Better for the Earth
It's never been easier to be "green". Simply by changing your drycleaner you can do your small part.

The vast majority of dry cleaners use a hazardous substance called perchloroethylene (PERC) to clean clothes. The EPA lists it as a probable carcinogen and it is a known pollutant. Dry cleaners now rank up there with gas stations as common hazardous waste sites. In fact, PERC is so bad that the entire state of California recently banned it and Massachusetts, New York and Texas are also considering a ban.

A few self-proclaimed "environmental" cleaners use a chemical solvent called Green Earth, but even that solvent is a silicone-based product that is combustible and potentially carcinogenic. In fact, GreenEarth has been shown to cause cancer in rats and affect liver functioning in human studies.

On the other hand, the solvents we use-liquid CO2 and water-are completely safe. CO2 is the gas that all animals exhale and that plants breathe in. It's the same gas that bubbles up in soft drinks and beer. CO2 is part of the natural cycle of the planet. Furthermore, the CO2 we use is captured as a by-product of existing industrial processes, thereby utilizing exhaust that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Revolution is also proud to use renewable energy sources as part of our total operation. We use clean burning alternative fuels in our vans, wind energy to power our plant and use easily renewable materials in our stores.

Better for You
CO2-based dry cleaning offers:

• 100 percent environmentally friendly, toxin-free cleaning.
• No chemical odors and no risk of indoor toxic fumes.
• Fabrics that keep their color and are restored to like-new condition without fading, shrinking, pilling or stain setting.
• Softer-feeling clothes, because they haven' been exposed to harsh chemicals.
