Chem-Dry Celebrates 45 Years As A Leading Green-Cleaning Provider

An environmentally friendly footprint is a major differentiator for every Chem-Dry franchise

Chem-Dry carpet cleaning franchise owners have a lot to work with when it comes to standing out from other vendors. From attention to detail all the way to multiple services for cleaning carpets, floors, area rugs, and upholstery. One of our biggest differentiating factors is our ability to maintain our services while focusing on being a leading green-cleaning provider.

Most of the cleaning done by our Chem-Dry franchise owners and their teams is done using environmentally safe, “green” cleaning products, leading Chem-Dry to become the leading green-cleaning provider in the carpet cleaning industry. Match this with our unprecedented business model, and it’s understandable why Chem-Dry franchise owners have been thriving across the United States (and world) for 45 years.

Cleaning processes as safe as products

“From the very beginning, with our Hot Carbonating Water carpet-cleaning process, we have been on the green side of things, and now we offer more than 50 green products, which is huge,” says D’Wayne Tanner, Vice President of Franchise Development. “Being environmentally conscious was big in the 1970s, and it’s top of mind for consumers now. People are looking for those benefits when they choose a carpet cleaning franchise vendor to come into their home or business.”

The entire granite-renewal process Chem-Dry offers has been green certified, for instance, and along with many other products is a part of the Chem-Dry Green Certified Program.  That means these cleaning solutions, as well as the processes to apply and remove them, are safe for the home and business environment. They do not leave toxins behind in carpets, rugs, furniture, or surfaces, and they do not contribute to air pollution.

Green products translate into strong sales

What does this mean for a Chem-Dry cleaning franchise owner? Sales. Many home and business owners hold off on cleaning because they’ve had a bad experience with slow-drying, smelly chemicals in the past. From showing how Chem-Dry’s patented The Natural Carpet Cleaner is 100% non-toxic, through multiple other products as well, those objections can be easily met and overcome.

Chem-Dry creates cleaner, healthier indoor environments with its proprietary equipment and solutions for carpet, upholstery, granite countertops, and hard floor surfaces, such as wood, tile, and laminates. In further testing of its processes, a study conducted by a leading independent laboratory concluded that the Chem-Dry Hot Carbonating Extraction cleaning method removes an average of 98% of common household allergens, such as pet dander and dust mite matter, from carpets and upholstery. Chem-Dry has a national partnership with the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA), working to raise awareness and provide education on the importance of indoor air quality in maintaining the health and safety of homes and businesses.

Chem-Dry is the world’s largest carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise, with more than 2,500 franchises in more than 55 countries, serving 11,000 homes and businesses a day. A top-rated global franchise, Chem-Dry is unrivaled in franchise service and support. The Chem-Dry Hot Carbonating Extraction process delivers a faster-drying, deeper and more environmentally friendly clean that appeals to home and business owners. In addition to carpet and area rugs, Chem-Dry provides cleaning and renewal services for tile and stone, granite countertops, leather and upholstery.
