Tide Cleaners Ballwin Upgrades Operations

Blog Featured Image (15)

GreenEarth’s Technical Director Andy Lien, recently visited Tide Cleaners in Ballwin, Missouri, to assist with the installation of a new 80 lb machine, bringing a major upgrade to this St. Louis-area location.

Replacing a 2011 model, the new 2026 machine features the latest Dialog Touch touchscreen controls for a more intuitive and efficient user experience. It also offers the unique ability to operate without the central boiler, providing flexibility for weekend production or emergency situations such as boiler inspections.

This upgrade allows cleaning and maintenance tasks to happen simultaneously, helping reduce downtime and improve daily plant efficiency.

The Tide Cleaners Ballwin team is thrilled with their new equipment, which represents a significant step forward in performance and innovation. We’re proud to support Affiliates like Tide Cleaners as they continue investing in the future of garment care.

If you’re considering a new dry cleaning machine, GreenEarth can help with pricing, model selection, and guidance to find the right fit for your operation.
