1. Choose right cleaning program

There is many ways destroy and try to clean things wrong way. It is only one right way to do it! That is why all products have their own tags and symbols.

Registered symbols - what they mean?

Underlining under the symbol means not wrinkle or gentle material and very sensitive care. If your machine does not have for example special not wrinkle -materials programme put less laundry in the washing machine than usually.

Letters in the symbol are information for laundry workers. Every symbol has its own meaning: what kind liquid and solvent can use and how high temperature is allowed. Underline below the symbol means carefully or gentle. Some shops are selling dry-cleaning bags. These do not really clean your garment but gives nice fresh smell in your clothes.

If these marks and tags are with colour it means:

GREEN = You can clean it normally
YELLOW = Gentle / careful cleaning
RED = Not allowed
