The ugly truth about synthetic fibers

The ugly truth about synthetic fibers

This post is to bring awareness to fabric types, mostly concerning clothing, but still relevant in the cleaning industry as we deal with different materials for rugs, carpets and upholstery cleaning.  

DID YOU KNOW EVERY SYNTHETIC GARMENT EVER MADE STILL EXISTS IN SOME FORM…?

The fabrics that touch our skin every single day remain a mystery, hidden behind vague adjectives like silky, mesh, or fleece.  They cloak the truth, leaving the consumer in the dark about the actual fabric that makes up their clothing. 

BY 2030, 73% OF CLOTHING IS EXPECTED TO BE SYNTHETIC.

SYNTHETIC FABRICS CAN HAUNT OUR PLANET FOR UP TO 200 YEARS. FILLING UP LANDFILL AND CHOKING OUR EARTH.

 

Do you have training in fabric recognition? Do you clean wool rugs? Are you able to clean any natural fibers? Do you prefer synthetic? Do you use a portable or truckmount when cleaning these types of materials?
