Green Certified Carpet Cleaning

You wouldn’t add soaps, detergents, phosphates or other harsh chemicals to our air, lakes, streams or forests; so why add them to your carpets? At Chem-Dry Northeast, we believe in sustainability and have worked toward offering a Green solution to carpet cleaning for the past two decades.

Chem-Dry’s flagship cleaning solution, The Natural®, is on the FDA’s G.R.A.S.* list; however, our dedication to Green doesn’t stop there. We use one-fifth the amount of water during our cleaning process, ensuring a healthier, Greener home without wasting precious water resources. Compare this to steam cleaners which require excessive amounts of water and harsh chemicals.
