What is the process for cleaning and maintaining uniforms?

Cintas Corporation recommends a detailed process for cleaning and maintaining uniforms to ensure they remain in optimal condition throughout their usage. Proper care helps not only in maintaining the appearance of the uniforms but also in extending their lifespan, which can ultimately contribute to cost savings and employee satisfaction. The cleaning process typically begins with sorting uniforms by color and fabric type to prevent discoloration or damage during washing. It is advisable to refer to the care labels on each uniform for specific washing instructions. Generally, uniforms can be machine washed in cold water with a mild detergent to avoid shrinking or fading. After washing, uniforms should be tumble dried on a low heat setting or hung to air dry, as excessive heat can damage certain fabrics. For pressing, it is important to use an appropriate setting on the iron based on the fabric type. In addition to regular washing, inspecting uniforms for stains, damages, or wear can facilitate timely repairs or replacements. Cintas provides its customers with specific guidelines based on the types of uniforms they supply.
