Care symbols are standardized icons found on clothing labels that provide essential information on how to properly wash, dry, and iron garments. These symbols help consumers maintain the quality and longevity of their clothing by indicating the appropriate care methods, such as water temperature, drying techniques, and ironing settings. Each care symbol has a specific meaning, making it easier for individuals to understand the best practices for garment care. For example, a symbol with a bucket of water indicates washing instructions, while a triangle may signify the need for bleaching. Understanding these symbols can prevent damage and ensure that clothing remains in good condition.
