The dry cleaning process refers to cleaning clothes and fabrics by using a chemical solvent that contains little or no water, hence it is “dry”. While cleaning the surface of fabrics, it does not penetrate the fibers like water does in a washing machine.
Dry cleaning is typically used on clothes and fabrics that cannot withstand the rigors of a washer and dryer. This process preserves the desirable qualities of many fabrics and helps prevent shrinking and stretching.
