Your drapes do more than set the stage - they protect your venue. From filtering airborne contaminants to playing a vital role in fire prevention, the condition of your theatrical or educational facility's curtains matters more than you think.
That's why venues are turning to On-Site Drapery Cleaners - North America's leader in eco-friendly, non-immersion drapery cleaning and flameproofing. Designed for theaters, schools, and performance spaces, our proprietary process is safer, greener, and more effective than conventional methods.
Drapery Cleaning Is a Health & Safety Priority
Drapes and stage curtains act like giant air filters, trapping dust and allergens, chemical residues and germs, as well as viruses, and bacteria.
In fact, indoor air quality in public buildings can be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Over time, embedded dust and moisture lead to dry rot, degrading the integrity of expensive stage curtains. Without regular cleaning, this silent damage accelerates creating avoidable health hazards.
Meet the On-Site Non-Immersion Process
No Water. No Solvents. No Damage.
Conventional dry-cleaning and steam methods may sound effective, but they are harsh on delicate fabrics, introduce moisture, and can strip away flame retardants.
- No hot water or chemical solvents
- Gentle dry-powder agitation with powerful air extraction
- Zero shrinkage, fading, or fabric distortion
- Residue-free & completely non-toxic
Independent lab tests confirm: Our process leaves no off-gassing, no lingering toxins, and no impact on existing flameproofing treatments.
Quantifiable Sustainability: Green Stats That Matter
- Saves over 240,000 gallons of hot water per year
- Prevents the disposal of 80,000 gallons of PERC, a toxic, cancer-linked dry-cleaning chemical
It's more than cleaning. It's part of your institution's environmental mission - reducing your carbon footprint while protecting what matters most.
Compliant Flameproofing That Meets Code
Whether you're preparing for a fire inspection or planning your next performance, fire safety is non-negotiable.
- NFPA 701 (USA)
- CAN/ULC S109 (Canada)
- Local and regional fire codes
- Flameproofing wears off over time (typically 3 years or after exposure to humidity}
- Most cleaning fluids dissolve existing treatments
- On-Site's method does not remove flame retardant
- When needed, we reapply a non-VOC, mineral-based treatment safe for people and the planet
Every job comes with certified flame test documentation - ensuring peace of mind for you and your fire inspector.
