Your garment care cheat sheet.

Why is garment care so important?

Proper garment care is about more than just maintaining a polished appearance. It plays a vital role in protecting the environment, extending the life of our clothes and ensuring they always look their best. Instead of disposing of clothes prematurely, proper care can extend their wearability and save money and resources. Regular care ensures that our favorite pieces stay in great condition, free from damage and discoloration.

All the tools you need for proper care

The right tools are essential for effective garment care.

Quality iron

A good iron can make a significant difference in maintaining your clothes. Consider investing in a Braun Household Steam iron or Steam generator iron that features temperature control and precision to ensure optimal care for different fabrics.

Quality iron

Sewing kit

A basic sewing kit with needles, coloured thread, scissors and buttons can help you repair minor damage at home and prolong the life of your clothes.

Sewing kit

Good quality hangers

Using well-made, sturdy hangers will prevent your clothes from getting out of shape. Consider padded hangers for fragile items or wooden hangers for heavier garments such as jackets.

Good quality hangers

Wash bags

Mesh laundry bags can protect delicate items during washing and extend their life.

Wash bags

Our checklist for proper maintenance:

Sorting

1.Sorting before washing:

Sorting not only by colour but also by fabric type and washing instructions can significantly extend the lifespan of your garments.
Overloading

2. Not overloading the washing machine:

Overloading can cause more wear and tear on your clothes during the wash cycle.
Storage

3. Proper storage:

Clothes should be either folded or hung properly to prevent them from stretching, tearing, or getting creased.
Seasonal

4. Seasonal care:

Each season might require different care for your garments. For example, using mothballs or cedarwood for wool in the winter, or airing out clothes in the spring.
Rotating

5. Rotating your clothing:

Regular rotation prevents the same clothes from wearing out quickly.

Do you know the Symbol for no tumble drying?

With so many different types of fabrics it is not always easy to know how to treat them properly. Luckily most of our clothes come with a sewn-in user manual: the label.
If you know what all the symbols on it stand for, you are on the safe side. So here‘s a reminder of all the symbols and their meaning – they might come in handy on your next laundry day.
Icons

You have read the symbol but are still unsure of how to iron your item? Play it safe and try Braun‘s smart iCare or Eco Mode – for all kinds of ironable fabrics. Regardless of the length of time spent ironing, your ironing needs or the garment – iCare Technology and Eco Mode will make your ironing experience quicker and easier. Smart iCare mode protects your clothes with a safe temperature for all kinds of ironable fabrics – for smart textile protection and no time wasted on heating up or cooling down.

Common stains and how to remove them.

Grass

Baking powder and white vinegar work wonders. Make a paste, leave for 15 minutes, then wash as normal.

Grass

Wine

Dab (not rub) with a cloth to absorb as much of the wine as possible. For stains on white fabrics, apply hydrogen peroxide, then wash at the hottest temperature safe for the fabric. But be careful: hydrogen peroxide tends to bleach darker fabrics, which is why it is only recommended for white fabrics.

Wine

Blood

Using well-made, sturdy hangers will prevent your clothes from getting out of shape. Consider padded hangers for fragile items or wooden hangers for heavier garments such as jackets.

Blood

Sweat

Apply a paste made of baking soda and water and rub it in. Then wash at the hottest temperature safe for the fabric.

Sweat

Coffee or tea

Wash quickly with a stain remover. Apply a little rubbing alcohol and rinse with water.

Coffee or tea

Chocolate

Water and dish soap are enough. Just rub and wash until the stain is gone.

…how to stretch shrunk textiles?

No need to worry if your jumper has shrunk in the wash. Try this: first soak the textile in water with conditioner for about half an hour, then put it on a towel. Stretch out carefully to its original size and let dry. The process can be repeated, if the clothing does not come back to its original shape after the first try. This trick works well for knitwear made from wool, cotton or cashmere.
