A launderette in Helston has become the first in the UK to take delivery of a revolutionary new environmentally friendly commercial washing machine.
Bubbles Launderette in Meneage Street has beaten all other launderettes in the UK to become the first to take delivery of the revolutionary Lagoon Wetcleaning machine - an alternative to dry cleaning.
Supplied by Redruth-based commercial equipment specialist Brewer and Bunney, the new wet cleaning alternative to dry cleaning equipment removes the need for solvents and hydrocarbons used in dry cleaning equipment, instead using biodegradable products.
Joyce Williams, who runs Bubbles, said she was thrilled to be the first launderette in the UK to use the new system.
"When we spoke to Brewer and Bunney and they told us about the new machine, we thought that the opportunity to become more environmentally friendly and offer better results with an alternative to traditional dry cleaning was a good one.
"Not for one minute did we think we would be the first launderette in the UK to take delivery of the system, but we are delighted to have that feather in our cap," said Joyce.
Brewer and Bunney Managing Director David Hayes said he was delighted that Joyce had decided to go down the eco-friendly route. "The Lagoon system really is revolutionary and for us to be able to supply the first one anywhere in the UK is fantastic. We are delighted that Joyce decided to take on the new system and opt for a more environmentally friendly and better way of dry cleaning.
"It is certainly a system that will become the new dry cleaning so to have a UK first in Cornwall is an achievement Joyce should be rightly proud of," said Mr Hayes.
