Caring for Military Uniforms
Proper care preserves the sharp appearance and durability of your uniform. Follow these essential steps to keep your uniform looking its best.
Washing Guidelines
Use cold water and mild detergent to protect fabric colors and patches. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners that can damage fibers.
Drying and Ironing
Air dry uniforms when possible to prevent shrinkage. Use a low heat iron setting to maintain fabric integrity and crisp creases.
Storage Tips
Store uniforms in a cool, dry place on hangers to avoid wrinkles and fabric stress. Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Optimal Washing Practices
Use warm water and gentle detergents to clean hotel linens effectively while preserving fabric strength and color. Avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade fibers.
Stain Removal Tips
Treat stains promptly with appropriate stain removers to prevent permanent damage. Pre-soaking can help lift tough spots before washing.
Drying and Ironing
Dry linens on low heat to avoid shrinkage and maintain softness. Ironing at moderate temperatures keeps linens crisp and guest-ready.
Proper Storage
Store clean linens in a dry, ventilated area to prevent mildew and odors. Rotate stock regularly to use older linens first.
