What it means to join CFA
The purpose of the Canadian Fabricare Association is to foster and encourage professionalism, ethical conduct and ongoing development within the fabricare industry in Canada. CFA is a not-for-profit corporation, established to promote the interest of professional cleaners and fabricare specialists in Canada. The association provides representation before legislative bodies and lobbies on behalf of the cleaning industry regarding industry issues and professionalism.
Through regular news releases and technical bulletins, CFA members are able to deal with the public’s concern related to industry issues and government regulations. Through membership in the Canadian Fabricare Association the professional cleaner in Canada has access to services and benefits by a strong, vital and active association working on behalf of the Canadian dry cleaning industry.
The association’s involvement in environmental issues ensures that members are kept aware of both legislative and industry developments.
The interest of the Government and consumer groups in environmental issues has a direct impact on the dry cleaning industry. These demands require a strong an effective association to protect against unwarranted complaints and inappropriate Government action.
CFA is guided by a Board of Directors which governs the association based on policies and programs approved by the membership. An executive committee is responsible for the day to day operation of the association.
Meetings are held regionally and at the annual conference. At each of these meetings members have the opportunity to speak with colleagues, be updated on the latest industry developments and share insights with and learn from fellow professionals.
