Washing symbols

Washing symbols are icons found on clothing care labels that provide specific instructions for cleaning and maintaining garments. Each symbol indicates how to wash, dry, iron, or bleach the item. For instance, a bucket symbol with water means machine wash, while a hand in the bucket indicates hand washing. Temperature dots show the maximum water temperature allowed. A square with a circle represents tumble drying, and lines under it denote drying methods. Understanding these symbols helps prevent damage to clothes and ensures they remain in good condition for longer.
