Scope

This standard establishes a symbol system used on the labels of textile products, providing information on the most rigorous maintenance procedures that will not cause irreversible damage to the products; it specifies the methods of using these symbols in maintenance labels. This standard includes household maintenance methods for washing, bleaching, drying, and ironing, as well as professional textile maintenance methods for dry cleaning and wet cleaning, but does not include industrial washing. The information provided by the four symbols for household maintenance methods can also be helpful to professional laundry and ironing personnel. This standard applies to all textile products provided to end users.
