GARMENT CARE & LABEL SUPPORT
Care Instructions Start With How the Garment Is Made
Care instructions should match the fabric, construction, decoration and finishing of the garment. We review these factors during development so brands can apply more appropriate washing and care guidance to the finished product.
CARE STARTS IN DEVELOPMENT
The Right Care Advice Depends on the Product
A cotton hoodie, a bonded activewear top and a seam-sealed jacket should not automatically carry the same care instructions.
Fabric composition, stretch, dyeing, printing, embroidery, bonding and other finishing processes can all affect how a garment should be washed, dried and ironed. These details should be considered before the final care information is confirmed.
Activewear & Yoga Wear
Stretch fabrics and performance finishes may require gentler washing and lower heat to help preserve elasticity, shape and surface performance.
• Stretch Recovery
• Heat Sensitivity
• Performance Finishes
Hoodies & Cotton Apparel
Cotton-rich fabrics may respond differently depending on yarn, knit structure, washing treatment and finishing. Shrinkage, color and surface appearance should be considered when care instructions are prepared.
• Shrinkage
• Color Retention
• Surface Appearance
Printed & Embroidered Garments
Decoration methods such as screen printing, heat transfer and embroidery may require different care conditions from the base fabric itself.
• Print Durability
• Embroidery Appearance
• Ironing Restrictions
Technical Outerwear
Bonded fabrics, coatings, seam sealing and other functional finishes require product-specific care guidance to help protect the construction and intended performance of the garment.
• Bonded Construction
• Seam Sealing
• Functional Finishes
CARE & PERFORMANCE CHECKS
Care Guidance Should Be Based on What the Garment Can Handle
Where required, samples can be checked for changes in measurement, appearance, decoration and construction after washing. These observations can help determine more suitable care recommendations before bulk production.
Dimensional Change
Changes in key measurements after washing
Color & Appearance
Visible fading, staining or surface changes
Print & Decoration
Cracking, peeling or visible changes to decoration
Construction
Seams, bonding and finishing reviewed after care
CARE LABEL SUPPORT
From Product Requirements to the Finished Care Label
Once the material, construction and finishing requirements are confirmed, we can support the preparation and application of care labels using information provided or approved by the brand.
Care labels can include fiber content, size, washing instructions and other required product information according to the destination market and brand requirements.
Fiber Content
Material composition
Wash & Care Instructions
Approved garment care guidance
Size Information
Brand size labeling
Custom Branding
Printed or woven care labels
RESPONSIBLE PRODUCT CARE
Better Care Can Help Extend Product Life
Clear and appropriate care instructions help customers look after garments properly and may extend their usable life.
For brands, better care guidance can also reduce avoidable complaints caused by incorrect washing, drying or ironing.
