– MilliCare’s dry-cleaning method is :

• Non-toxic• No slip and fall risk• No facility downtime • No water introduced into facility• Non abrasive to carpet fiber or backing (gentle)• Removes odors from carpet, no wet-carpet smell• Effective on all commercial carpet types and constructions• Removes soil and particulates rather than moving them around.• Removes surface fungi, allergens and bacteria from carpet. • Works with HVAC to reduce airborne particulates and VOCs.• No solvent carriers or detergent residues to accelerate carpet re-

soiling and emit VOCs into facility.

Dry Methods

MilliCare Competitive Dry

No carriers or detergent residues hence no detergent or carrier related re-soiling

Soil is removed rather than moved around. This protects fibers from scarring and dulling and results in best long term appearance retention.

No optical brighteners Removes smoke odors No down-time No water-related bacterial or fungal

allergens fostered Demonstrated IAQ improvements

through removal of dust mite and other particulate allergens.

No Volatile Organic Compounds Non-toxic, environmentally safe Approved for ALL fiber types

Water-based - very low moisture.

Exclusive adsorbent chemistry No limits on frequency of use.

Hydrocarbon solvent or cellulosic based

High frequency cleaning NOT desirable

Non-absorbent medium

Solvent residues and optical brighteners can dull fiber and cause yellowing.

Re-soiling Fiber scarring from soil not

retrieved Cleaner is also hard to

retrieve Possible solvent carrier

related VOCs Larger particles provide less

penetration Fine airborne particles are

left behind with some systems (10:1 difference)

Low coverage rates. Retrieved materials are slow

to decompose in landfill.

Over-wetting can occur Long dry times Wet methods promote growth of

bacterial and fungal colonies. Odors, allergens accumulate and IAQ suffers.

Wick-back of soil means that initial good appearance following clean is deceptive

Optical brighteners may cause yellowing

Detergent residue dulls fiber and promotes re-soiling.

Must clean larger areas for uniform appearance - streaking possible

Fiber scarring danger from limits on acceptable frequencies.

Repeated use of excess water can gradually penetrate seams between modular tiles damaging adhesive and loosening tiles.

Water, detergent High frequency

cleaning not desirable

Tends to redistribute rather than remove soil.

Provides surface cleaning only requiring periodic wet extraction.

Pile distortion & yarn de-twist / unravel. Pile matting and crushing.

Leaves streaks and swirl marks. Re-soiling results from

detergent residues. Detergent residue dulls fiber. Uneven detergent application Requires pre-vacuum Fiber scarring from soil &

method Not safe for use on all fibers Wet methods promote growth of

bacterial and fungal colonies. Odors, allergens accumulate and IAQ suffers.

Are You Concerned About MOLD!

INDOOR AIR QUALITY – WET CARPET SMELL!

What’s Wrong With this Picture!

Public Safety?

Trip & Fall Liability?

Overwetting “MOLD”?

CRI - Carpet and Rug Institute

• “Abnormally high levels of mold spores are most often associated with water damage, water intrusion, failed HVAC systems, or non-existent or ineffective cleaning systems.”

• “Carpet that is maintained in a clean, dry condition does not support mold growth. Clean and dry = no mold.”

• CRI recognizes and endorses MilliCare’s Cleaning System as an effective carpet deep-cleaning method.

• CDC - Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

• Recommends “removing or replacing previously soaked carpets and upholstery.”

Quotes - the Indoor EnvironmentQuotes - the Indoor Environment

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) – MilliCare’s ContributionsIndoor Air Quality (IAQ) – MilliCare’s Contributions

– Removes particulates (soil, spores, allergens and bacteria) from carpet rather than moving them around

– Works with HVAC to effectively reduce airborne particulates, bio-aerosols, and VOCs.

– No water introduced into carpet to promote biological activity. No wet-carpet smell.

– Removes odors from carpet

– No VOC-emitting solvent carriers and fragrances

-The battle rages on, which is better wet or dry cleaning?

-Consider this…with all the studies and news headlines about mold and it’s associated problems. Facility & Resident managers are now considering new ways to improve indoor air quality and safeguard against this problem.

- The MilliCare “DRY” carpet cleaning process, is a great way to start. Carpets must be cleaned on a regular basis, it’s the kitchen sink on your facility floor that collects and holds all the dust and dirt. Daily vacuuming is recommended, programmed maintenance will do the rest.
