Coronavirus (COVID-19)

We at Clean Tiger Drycleaners wants to ensure the safety of our team members, customers and the communities we service. All of our stores will run as per our guidance below however we encourage you to speak directly to your store about any store specific changes.

No same-day service at this time. Home / Office Pickup & Delivery is still on the regular schedule at this time.

The risk when transporting and cleaning linen from the general public is considered very small at this point. General standard hygienic procedures we have outlined for our locations are:

Additional steps taken to Kill the

Coronavirus (COVID-19)

• To ensure safety of our employees we expose the garments to 70C to ensure all pathogens , bacteria & viruses are killed before initiating dry-cleaning process hence garments are exposed 2 times to high temperature (70C) setings , thereby giving additional protection to both customers & employees.
• Kindly Note : High Temperature (70C) DO NOT result in any kind of fabric damage in our machines ( Since the State of the art machines we have maintains adequate moisture level in Drying Chamber)

Our Italian Hydrocarbon Cleaning Process:

(How we disinfect & Clean your garments)

We have received several inquiries about the effect that Dry-Cleaning has on the coronavirus (COVID-19). Here are several facts that address the issue to the extent that it can now be addressed:

1. 01We at Clean Tiger Drycleaners use ( The only machine of its Kind in Noida ) i.e Hydroflex 25 & since the Solvent used in the machine is pure dry cleaning fluid has the highest flash point of any of the alternative solvents (170F), the Hydrocarbon dry cleaning process allows the clothes to be dried at the highest drying temperature, 158F, which is equivalent to 70C.
2. 02At this point in time, the specifics of the epidemiology of the COVID-19 have not been identified.
3. 03However, the World Health Organization issued its update to its table of Thermal Inactivation of Bacteria, Viruses, and Protozo in January 2015. As you can see, many bacteria, viruses and protozoa are inactivated at 70C or 158F. Source WHO Please click here
4. 04Additionally, the amount of inactivation is a logarithmic function of the amount of time the temperature is applied. The standard drying time at 158F in the Hydrocarbon Cleaning process is more than 55 minutes, enough time to inactivate most of the viruses shown.
5. 05Given the information available at this point in time, because Hydrocarbon dries at the highest temperature for the longest period of time, we believe it is fair for you to make the representation that while we do not know the specific behaviour of the COVID-19 virus yet, if it behaves similarly to other viruses that have been tested, the Italian Hydrocarbon process is the most effective dry cleaning method available to inactivate bacteria and viruses and to potentially inactivate the COVID-19 virus as well.
6. 06Also in the Wet Cleaning ( Hygenic Drycleaning ) Process , we use dryers at Maximum Heat temperature settings , there by eliminating the possibility of virus contamination.
