Care Guide

Embroidery Product Care

Normal washing Embroidered articles are best washed with mild detergent with no chemical additives at 60°C/140°F. Never leave damp embroidered items folded or pressed together, especially embroidery being washed for the first time. Do not tumble dry unless the item has been thoroughly rinsed. Never wring out an embroidered item. The lower the washing temperature, the more important it is to thoroughly rinse the item. Iron embroidered items on the reverse side between two cloths with a steam iron, which is preferable to damp cloth ironing.
Washing at 95°C / 203°F (Boiling) Due to their superior quality and color fastness, our threads can be washed at 95°C with heavy duty detergents. Use only those that do not contain bleaching agents, peroxide, or optical brighteners as this may result in discolouration. Special Considerations if dye is released into the wash water, continue rinsing the embroidered item until the water runs clear.
Remove stains only with solvents that do not contain bleaching or discolouring agents. Wash embroidered items immediately after using any stain remover. Environmental protection laws sometimes force changes in the dyes and dyeing processes. For these reasons and despite maximum efforts, there is a possibility of minimal color differences. According to present German production standards, our thread products are guaranteed to be free of harmful substances. 

Note: Normally the care label instructions pertain to the garment, not the embroidery. Special care should be taken when laundering embroidered garments.
