San Diego’s largest commercial dry cleaners, San Diego Valet Services, goes Green

May 19, 2008 (PRLEAP.COM) Travel News
San Diego Valet Service, the largest commercial dry cleaners serving San Diego county’s top resorts and hotels, announced its full conversion to green dry cleaning machinery today. Felipe Leff, San Diego Valet Services owner and Chief Executive Officer, notes the transition was a must in order to continue to serve tourists and maintain San Diego Valet Service’s position as the leader in commercial dry cleaning service.

“We recognize the sophistication and sensitivity our hotels and resorts have towards the environment as their guests grow increasingly aware of green practices,” Leff comments. “At San Diego Valet Service, we feel it is our duty and honor to protect an ever fragile environment and showcase our initiative in the hopes other dry cleaners will follow.”

San Diego Valet Services invested over a quarter of a million dollars into the new green machinery, which will be certified as green technology and be subject to approval of the California Air Resources Board (CARB). CARB is the lead environmental regulatory agency overseeing the transition by dry cleaners in California to alternative solvents.

Leff adds that due to the investment expenditure and integration of the new process, San Diego Valet needed several months to convert to the green process.
