Montreal-based Sollertia Inc., a consultancy specializing in textile architecture and event
planning, has developed the Sollertia Cleaning System for onsite maintenance of large-scale textile
structures. The company reports the system will extend a structure’s lifetime, preserve its
original appearance and color, and bring back its original brilliance, while also saving
maintenance costs by eliminating the need to disassemble and reassemble the structure.
The system comprises a portable atmospheric pressure steam system for deep cleaning and uses
specially developed high-performance biodegradable detergents. The process consumes less water than
conventional processes and complies with environmental standards, Sollertia reports.
In addition, the company will customize its maintenance program.
