Complete Uniform Care Guide: Washing and Dry Cleaning Instructions

Taking care of your uniform is essential to maintain its impeccable appearance and ensure its durability over time. That's why we've prepared a comprehensive guide with washing instructions to preserve the fabric's quality and colors.

During washing, avoid vigorously rubbing the fabric against the sink's surface or using a brush, as this can wear down the fabric's surface and affect color uniformity. Additionally, do not use bleach or chlorine-based products, as they weaken the fabric and cause colors to fade.

To remove dirt and stains from oil, grease, ice cream, and grease, it is recommended to soak the garment in a solution of water and neutral soap or a specific color product, in the shade, for a few hours, avoiding aggressive rubbing.

When washing colored clothes, opt for bleach without optical brighteners, using neutral laundry detergent or products specifically designed for colors. For sun drying, turn the garment inside out.

Remember to avoid tumble drying at temperatures above 70°C, as this can cause shrinkage of more than 4%.

In the case of dry cleaning, there are two types: open and closed systems. The open system uses a machine similar to a conventional washer, with perchloroethylene solvent, while the closed system completes the entire washing and drying process without direct contact with the solvent. In this case, perchloroethylene is used, which is toxic but provides greater cleaning power.

Now that you know all these valuable tips, taking care of your uniform will be even easier. By preserving the fabric's quality and appearance, you will always look impeccable in the workplace. After all, your uniform is your professional presentation!
