As environmental awareness grows, Milwaukee and Kenosha residents are increasingly looking for services that align with sustainable practices. When CD One Price Cleaners opens in Fall 2025, it will not only bring speed, affordability, and transparency—it will also introduce a more eco-conscious way to care for clothing. Milwaukee Dry Cleaning has integrated green initiatives into its business model, making it a responsible choice for the environmentally minded consumer.

One of the most significant ways CD One reduces its environmental impact is by avoiding the use of perchloroethylene, or “perc,” a solvent traditionally used in dry cleaning. Perc is effective but classified as a hazardous air pollutant by the EPA. CD One uses more modern, eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are both gentle on fabrics and safer for the environment. These solvents biodegrade more easily, leave no harsh chemical odor, and reduce harmful emissions.

Water and energy efficiency are also core parts of CD One’s operation. Their facilities are outfitted with energy-efficient machines and optimized cleaning systems designed to reduce water and power usage per garment. Compared to older, less efficient dry cleaning shops, CD One’s approach minimizes waste while maintaining top-tier cleaning quality.

Even their hangers and garment bags are selected with sustainability in mind. CD One encourages hanger recycling through in-store drop-off bins, and customers are urged to reuse or return their hangers instead of throwing them away. Many locations also offer biodegradable garment covers or reusable bags as an alternative to traditional plastic.

The company’s centralized processing system—designed for high volume and efficiency—also means fewer loads, less detergent waste, and lower overall emissions. When combined with same-day turnaround and bulk garment handling, this model reduces the carbon footprint per customer visit significantly compared to smaller, fragmented dry cleaning operations.

For Milwaukee and Kenosha residents who value sustainability but don’t want to compromise on quality or convenience, CD One offers the best of both worlds. Customers get fast, affordable service with the peace of mind that they’re making a more environmentally responsible choice.

In an industry often slow to change, CD One Price Cleaners leads by example—proving that green dry cleaning doesn’t have to be expensive or inconvenient. With its expansion into Southeast Wisconsin, CD One isn’t just cleaning clothes; it’s helping build a cleaner future.
