Our care

Water, not solvents.

Most dry cleaning still leans on harsh solvents like PERC. Glenforest was the first cleaner in Toronto to replace them with professional wet cleaning: pure water, biodegradable detergents, and Miele machines that meter every degree and every gram.

The result is cleaning that is 100 percent toxic-free and noticeably kinder to fine fibres and to sensitive skin. Garments come back soft, bright, and free of that chemical finish, pressed to the standard we have kept for over 60 years.

  • No PERC, ever
  • Biodegradable detergents
  • Miele certified process
  • Safe for skin, silk, and wool

Held to a local standard.

Glenforest does a fantastic job on my dry clean only clothing. The executive finish makes my shirt feel amazing and my clothes don't stink like chemicals when they get back.
Yelp review
They are awesome. I had my Christmas Party to go to and needed my suit dry cleaned the same day. Owner not only got my suit clean for the party, they offered to have it delivered to me because I was working. This was on a Saturday. Customer service was beyond exceptional, the suit looked amazing and I was very fortunate they could do this for me at the last minute. 12/10 stars. I would definitely recommend Glenforest Cleaners to anyone in the area or that's looking for a same day service.
