2. Temperature & Cycle Recommendations

- Use gentle/delicate cycles, especially for printed or embroidered garments.
- Always follow the specific instructions on each garment’s care label.
3. Drying Instructions
- Air dry or line dry when possible to maintain fit and reduce wear.
- If using a dryer, select low heat only.
- Remove items promptly to prevent wrinkles.
4. Stain Treatment Tips
- Pre-treat stains (oil, tomato, coffee, etc.) as soon as possible with mild stain remover or gentle dish soap.
- For tougher stains, allow garments to soak briefly before washing.
- Avoid chlorine bleach on colored fabrics to prevent fading or fiber damage.
5. Fabric Protection & Handling
- Turn garments inside out to protect prints, embroidery, and color depth.
- Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can weaken fibers and fade fabrics.
- Skip fabric softeners on workwear, they can leave residue and reduce breathability.
6. Ironing & Finishing
- Use medium heat when ironing.
- Do not iron directly over logos or embroidery, turn garments inside out or use a pressing cloth.
- For heavier fabrics (like denim aprons or pants), use a steam setting for best results.
7. Storage & Longevity Tips
- Store garments completely dry to prevent mildew or odors.
- Hang tops and aprons to maintain shape; fold bottoms as needed.
- Repair loose threads or stitching early to extend the garment’s lifespan.
8. Safety & Sanitation Notes
- For garments exposed to heavy food residue, wash soon after use to prevent bacteria buildup.
- Certain fabrics may allow sanitize-cycle settings; always check the care label first.
