Fireproof fabrics should be washed in water that is free of salts
Professional dry cleaning, with all solvents.
Dry cleaning is recommended to remove stains.
The washing temperature must respect the composition of the fabric. Use a normal detergent.
Delicate professional washing with regular detergent. Hydrogen peroxide, ammonia and sodium hypochlorite are allowed.
Dryer at low temperatures.
Medium temperature iron.
Made of COEX® fabrics may have different types of composition and finish, as well as different flameproof standards to be respected, it is therefore advisable to carefully follow the instructions on the specific label of the final product (labelling according to the international standard UNI EN ISO 3758: 2005).
The amount of ammonium sulphate or UAO softener to be used is specified on the reference fire certification.
Washing temperature from 40 to 90°C.
Washing with deionised or distilled water and normal cleaning liquid. The use of hydrogen peroxide and ammonia or sodium hypochlorite is allowed. In any case, always refer to the indications on the label of the garment.
Washing with normal water is allowed, but it is necessary to add ammonium sulphate or UAO softener instead of normal softener. Ammonium sulphate or UAO softener in the last rinse helps to eliminate the mineral salts deposited on the fibres.
Dryer & Flat iron can be used at low or medium temperature. COEX® resists the highest temperatures but natural fabrics do not all have the same heat resistance so they can change their appearance. It is therefore recommended to follow the indications relating to the fabric, present on the garment.
All types of solvents can be used.
If the maintenance instructions are correctly performed, all flameproofing tests are followed.
IMPORTANT: Always use a rinsing agent such as ammonium sulphate or UAO softener in the washing machine's additive dispense to have a garment perfectly cleansed of salt residues or detergents.
