Introduction to Wash Care, Printed, and Fabric Labels
When it comes to wash care labels, many people are quite familiar with them, as they are a common type of tag used in daily life. They are most frequently found on clothing, typically sewn on the inner side of shirts or pants. In addition to clothing, wash care labels can also be found on items like towels, plush toys, tents, shoes, hats, umbrellas, and in various other industries. Essentially, they are present in almost every household.
Terminology of Wash Care Labels:
In daily life, wash care labels are also referred to as:
