At Astor, our name signifies our commitment to environmental responsibility. As an organic dry cleaner, we focus on eco-friendly cleaning agents and practices. Our mission is to source, test, and innovate products that effectively clean your garments while minimizing their impact on the environment.
We utilize advanced Italian hydrocarbon cleaning technology, which employs liquid hydrocarbon—a safe and natural by-product—making it 100% non-toxic. Unlike harsh petrochemical solvents like Perc, which are commonly used by other dry cleaners and recognized as carcinogens, hydrocarbon cleaning is gentler on fabrics, protecting against wear, shrinkage, and color fade.
This method is particularly effective for delicate materials such as cashmere, leather, suede, and embellished items. We also use cleaning agents that meet rigorous European standards and certifications, along with wet cleaning, an environmentally friendly process that utilizes biodegradable and dermatologically tested solutions.
