Care Label Guide

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

laundering instructions to indicate washing, bleaching, drying, ironing and dry cleaning.

Additional symbols or words or both may be used to clarify the instructions.

The water temperatures 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.

Care

Care information tags are available on most
clothes sold in the United States. These
written instructions normally give 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 reference to

help you select a correct wash and dry
program that supports the care method
prescribed by the garment manufacturer.

It’s time to wash
new clothes that
you brought last
week and you
don’t undestand
a care label?
