Dry
Cleaning Certifications: What Do They Mean For You?
Have you ever noticed a decal
attached to your cleaner’s store window stating
that he or she is a Certified Environmental Drycleaner
and have wondered what this means?
The Drycleaning & Laundry Institute (DLI), formerly
known as the International Fabricare Institute (IFI),
has been the premier international trade association
for garment care professionals since 1883. They promote
the environmentally safe operation of drycleaning establishments
by formally recognizing individuals who fulfill a predetermined
set of requirements. Successful candidates earn the
right to use the title “Certified Environmental
Drycleaner” (CED).
What is a CED
– Certified Environmental Drycleaner
In order to become a
CED, an individual must pass a standard examination
and make a commitment to become recertified every three
years. Frequent recertification is necessary, due to
the constantly changing rules and regulations designed
to protect both the environment and the public. The
drycleaner is tested on various environmental topics,
including environmental regulations, proper waste handling,
occupational safety and health, safe operation of drycleaning
equipment, and other Federal regulatory requirements.
We believe that one of the primary ways of promoting
an environmentally safe drycleaning operation is to
develop and demonstrate the highest level of knowledge
and expertise in this area. Certification helps legitimize
this process by professionally testing the drycleaners’
knowledge and skills.
Why DLI Endorses
Environmental Certification
DLI’s Certified
Environmental Drycleaner program is designed to benefit
drycleaners, their customers, and their communities.
This program focuses on the drycleaners’ awareness
of environmental laws and regulations as they pertain
to the drycleaning industry. Improving the environment
that we live in requires drycleaners to fully understand
and comply with numerous environmental regulations and
controls in order to promote and ensure the continued
health and safety of businesses, families, and their
communities.
What Can You Expect
From a Certified Environmental Drycleaner?
*Proven knowledge regarding
environmental regulation, proper waste handling,
occupational safety and health, the safe operation of
drycleaning equipment, and other Federal requirements.

as they pertain to the drycleaning industry.
