The correct interpretation of the symbol on the washing label is the key to ensure that the clothing is properly maintained. Here are some common washed mark symbols and how to interpret them:
1.Washing symbol:
An icon shaped like a basin, sometimes with numbers or handwritten letters inside. Numbers usually represent the maximum washing temperature (in degrees Celsius), while handwritten letters may indicate special washing methods, such as "P" for gentle washing and "F" for gentle washing.
2.Bleaching symbol:
A triangle with an "X" in it means not to bleach.
A blank triangle indicates that it can be bleached.
3.Drying symbol:
A circle inside a square indicates that it can be dried, and the dots or lines inside the circle may indicate the drying temperature or whether it can be rolled while drying.
A square with a slash in it means you can't dry it, you can only dry it naturally.
4.Ironing symbol:
An iron-shaped icon with numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3) representing the highest temperature for ironing, usually with dots or lines indicating different temperature levels.
An iron shape icon crosses to indicate that it cannot be ironed.
5.Dry cleaning symbol:
A "P" inside a circle indicates that it can be dry cleaned, and sometimes there are numbers or letters next to the "P" to indicate the type or temperature of the dry cleaning solvent.
An "X" in a circle means no dry cleaning.
Please note that the wash mark symbol may be slightly different in different countries and regions, so it is best to refer to the standard of the clothing purchase. If the symbol on the washing mark is not clear or in doubt, it is recommended to consult the sales staff or check the washing guide on the official website of the brand.
