Due to increasing concerns over perc dry cleaning solvent releases to the environment and related water, air and soil impacts, the Small Business Assistance Program (SBAP) at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has partnered with the Rocky Mountain Fabricare Association, GreenEarth Cleaning, CDPHE’s Hazardous Materials Waste Management Division and the Drycleaning & Laundry Institute (DLI) to bring this dry cleaning event to Denver at no charge to attendees.
The Summit & Trade Fair will feature Presentations and a panel discussion on alternative solvents from industry, allied trades and CDPHE and an Exhibitor Trade Fair offering a multitude of resources in dry cleaning, laundry and wet cleaning equipment and supplies.
The Solvent Summit will be a unique opportunity for dry cleaners to spend a day where they may learn all the latest on the development of alternative solvents, wetcleaning and how to optimize their application. Talk directly with industry representatives and state environmental leaders. Exhibit space is provided for any and all of the possible tools and resources being offered to dry cleaners.
Booths for exhibitors are available to display the latest in equipment, products, chemistry and services. Admission is FREE for attendees and refreshments (including lunch) are all provided at no charge throughout the day. Pre-registered attendees will get a gift at the door.
