Use a Care-Symbol Reference to Understand the Clothing Label

A care label is easier to use when its symbols are understood before the laundry is started. GINETEX describes its My Care Label mobile application as a reference that explains textile-care symbols and provides advice for looking after clothing. The organization presents the resource for consumers internationally.

Use a reference to interpret the label on the actual item, rather than replacing it with assumptions about a similar garment. GINETEX also connects the app's advice with environmental considerations in textile care. The page describes the purpose of the resource; current availability and device compatibility should be checked through the relevant app store.
