Whats the minimum washing instruction that can appear on a care label?
A. At a minimum, a washing instruction would include a method of washing and a method of drying, like “Machine wash. Tumble dry.” This minimal wording, however, means that the product can be machine washed and tumble dried at any temperature, that ironing isn’t necessary, that any type of bleach can be used, and that no warnings are required. Thus, all elements of a proper washing instruction would have to be considered – washing, drying, ironing, bleaching and warnings.
