The awards were presented during Indiana's annual pollution prevention conference and trade show held on 16 September 2009.
The awards recognise Indiana's leaders who have identified and implemented innovative environmental practices into their programs and operations. Nu-Yale introduced its Solvair system, which replaced perc equipment, in 2008.
Nu Yale owner, Gary Maloney received the award from Indiana's assistant commissioner, Rick Bossingham.
Maloney said: "Our innovative cleaning technology is the first in Indiana and only the ninth in the world to be able to offer this truly green technology. Nu-Yale remains committed to exploring the cutting edge of technology and being the leader in the drycleaning industry.”
Bossingham said that Gary Maloney and Nu-Yale cleaners are to be commended for their innovation and their achievements for engaging in environmentally-friendly business operations.
