So, what Dry Cleaning Methods does Classic use?

Classic Carpet Care sometimes uses a type of treatment know as encapsulation. Encapsulation may be used with Steam Cleaning OR by itself as a Dry Cleaning Method. The Encapsulation products we use are "GREEN" products and completely safe for infants and pets.  These products create an invisible flaky polymer around debris that create separation from the fabric. This separation and texture of the polymer allows the debris to be extracted away much easier.

These Encapsulation products are especially useful when;

• Fast Dry times are critical... such as with light colored Berbers and commercial carpeting.
• Re-Soiling Spots have returned... such as heavy soda, coffee and pet deposits.
• Commercial Carpeting... As part of a comprehensive maintenance plan where routine vacuuming takes place.
