How To Use the Iron Properly

How to Choose the Temperature for Each Garment

Check the label of the clothes to iron each garment at its ideal temperature and to get perfect results. The iron temperature for each fabric is indicated on the label. With this information, you can classify and make several piles of clothes depending on the fabric and the temperature they need to go from lower to a higher temperature.

While you iron the clothes, you are also eliminating the possible bacteria that may remain in the fabric after washing.

Kind of fabric and temperature:

Silk:

For those more delicate items. You need a warm temperature that protects the delicate tissue. Remember to iron this garment inside out and use a little steam if it is very wrinkled.

Lingerie:

You need a medium temperature for all those clothes not too wrinkled to iron. 

Linen:

This fabric needs a lot of heat, which is why high temperatures are recommended, and steam to moisten the garment and eliminate wrinkles.

Jeans:

You need a high temperature for ironing this resistant fabric. We recommend that you iron them first inside-out and then on the right side.

Cotton shirts:

You need the hot or very hot temperature to eliminate wrinkles better.

Jerseys:

You need tenuous temperature so that it respects the fabric to avoid deformation.

Tips to Remember:

• Newly ironed clothing is a sign of cleanliness, hygiene, and elegance.
• Ironing eliminates all bacteria from the garments because the bacteria disappear completely from 60ºC.
• Ironing returns the form to the fibers. With washing, the fibers soften. This is why wrinkles appear and the garments lose part of their original shape. It is necessary to iron them, not only to mold them and reposition them but also to make all wrinkles disappear.
