Clean N’ Brite Earns IFI’s Professional Certification Designation

Mr. Benny Mehta of Clean N’ Brite has met all the criteria to earn the “Certified Professional Drycleaner” (CPD) designation from the International Fabricare Institute (IFI). This program involves a rigorous course of study, followed by a three-hour written exam.

The exam affirms the drycleaner’s expertise on various issues, such as professional dry cleaning procedures, the implementation of prescribed dry cleaning standards of physical plant facilities, and safe equipment operation. All CPDs must earn recertification every five years.

Certified Professional Drycleaners can provide customers with:

  • Proven, up-to-date knowledge of business management, customer service, fibers and fabrics and the dry cleaning process,
  • Adherence to the “Professional Standards of Certified Drycleaners”,
  • An awareness of the professional and safe operation of dry cleaning establishments.

Mr. Mehta passed the exam in April 2005. The certification runs through 2010.

It also enhances my abilities to represent and assist peer drycleaners through Mid-Atlantic Association of Cleaners, a trade association of drycleaners in four states, including Virginia”, Mr. Mehta said.
