Cotton
Cotton is a soft natural fiber. It is breathable and comfortable, and cotton garments are easy to care for. When you follow these simple instructions, cotton will retain its pleasant properties.
Washing
The proper washing method can be checked from the care label attached to the product. If there is a line under the washing symbol, it guides you to select a gentle washing cycle and a low spin speed. Also, check the recommended load level for the washing cycle—washing too much laundry at once may impair cleaning and increase wrinkles.
Correct washing temperature
Follow the recommended washing temperature. Washing at too low a temperature may cause unwanted color transfer.It’s advisable to wash garments inside out to minimize the impact on the fabric’s surface and colors.
Strong colors
Some dye may come off cotton garments, especially in the first few washes. Dark and brightly colored clothes should therefore be washed separately or with similar colors in plenty of water. Soaking is not recommended for hand-wash cotton garments.
After washing
A cotton product may shrink in the first wash. It is advisable to straighten cotton garments after washing and drying them on a hanger. Flat drying is better for heavy garments such as knitwear to prevent stretching. Cotton is best ironed on the reverse side when slightly damp.
