How should FR clothing be laundered?

To avoid compromising the life and service of FR clothing, here are a few do’s and don’ts for laundering your FR garments:

• Do not use hard water. Hard water can leave behind salts. Salt residual on the garment can compromise the FR properties.

• Do use a phosphate-based detergent; this is gentler on FR clothing. Avoid using fabric softeners, chlorine bleach or hydrogen peroxide bleaches during the laundering process.

• Do rinse all fabrics adequately to remove chemical residue. Follow all manufacturer washing instructions.
