NOTE

HOUSEHOLD LAUNDRY

Finishing on garments

After washing, garments may undergo various types of finishing processes to achieve desired characteristics. Some common types of finishing given to garments include:

  1. Pressing: Using a press or iron to flatten and smooth out wrinkles and creases in the fabric.
  2. Steam Pressing: Applying steam to garments while pressing to help relax fibers and remove stubborn wrinkles.
  3. Tumbling: Placing garments in a tumble dryer to remove excess moisture and fluff fibers.
  4. Crease Setting: Creating and setting creases in trousers and sleeves for a crisp appearance.
  5. Starching: Applying starch to garments to add stiffness and body, particularly to collars, cuffs, and pleats.
  6. Softening: Using fabric softeners or conditioners to make garments feel softer and more comfortable against the skin.
  7. Resin Finishing: Applying resin-based chemicals to garments to enhance properties such as wrinkle resistance, shrinkage control, and color fastness.
  8. Garment Dyeing: Dyeing garments after washing to achieve desired colors or effects.

Guidelines for Ironing

General rules to observe while ironing include:

  1. Check Fabric Care Labels: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on the fabric care label to determine the appropriate ironing temperature and settings for the garment.
  2. Sort Garments: Sort garments based on fabric type and recommended ironing temperatures to prevent damage.
  3. Use a Clean Iron: Ensure the iron plate is clean and free of any residue or buildup that could transfer onto garments.
  4. Adjust Temperature: Adjust the iron temperature according to the fabric type (e.g., low for delicate fabrics, medium for synthetics, high for cotton and linen).
  5. Use Steam Appropriately: Use steam to help remove wrinkles, but avoid over-wetting fabrics, especially delicate ones.
  6. Iron Inside Out: Iron garments inside out to prevent shine and protect delicate fabrics from direct heat.
  7. Start with Low Heat: When in doubt, start with a lower heat setting and gradually increase if needed to avoid scorching or melting fabrics.
  8. Hang or Fold Immediately: Hang or fold garments immediately after ironing to prevent wrinkles from forming again.
