Fabric Care

Care Label Guide

The following information is provided by U.S. Federal Trade Commission as par of

Project Clean. The symbols appearing on garment labels provide care instructions from

the garment manufacturer. These symbols seen on the fabric serve as minimum laun-

dering instructions to indicate washing, bleaching drying, ironing & dry cleaning. Additional

symbols or words or both may be used to clarify the instructions. The water tempera-

ture listed below are provided as a guideline. Actual water temperatures obtained in the

home depend on washing machine settings, regional supply temperatures and water

heater settings.

WASH

It's time to wash

new clothes that

you brought last

week and you

don't under-

stand a care

label?

A care information tag is available in most cloth-

ing sold in the United States, These written in-

structions will only give normally a single care

method for your garment, When an international

care symbol tag is also present, all care methods

will usually be shown, We are happy to present

the International symbol guide as a handy refer-

ence to help you select a correct wash and dry

program that supports the care method prescribed

by the garment manufacturer,
