HOW TO WASH SCHOOL UNIFORMS

There’s nothing like the feeling of seeing your children dressed in crisp, clean school uniforms. Taking proper care of your students’ uniforms can ensure they go to school looking and feeling fresh and clean.

Because students wear uniforms daily, it’s important to have a consistent cleaning routine for these unique garments. Additionally, the specialized colors of your students’ uniforms make it especially crucial that you use a laundry detergent that can fight stains, deliver a deep clean, and help protect the garment’s fibers.

How to Wash Uniforms, Step By Step

If you’re wondering how to clean school uniforms, follow these 6 simple steps.

  1. Read the care instructions on each of the uniform garments.
  2. Choose the lowest water temperature outlined in the care instructions for your wash cycle.
  3. Add a stain- and odor-fighting laundry detergent. We recommend Persil® Everyday Clean Original detergent or Persil® Advanced Clean Oxi+Odor Power detergent. Any of these detergents will deliver a deep clean for your laundry and leave your students’ uniforms smelling fresh and looking clean.
  4. Tumble dry on low heat. This will help prevent shrinking from occurring, especially if uniforms are made out of cotton.
