The main points of washing all kinds of linen in the hotel

The washing quality of hotel linen not only affects the service quality of the hotel, but also greatly affects the service life of the linen.

Relevant data shows that the life of textiles washed in a scientific way can be more than doubled than that of textiles washed in an inappropriate way! The textile raw materials of washing items are different, such as: cotton, polyester-cotton, polyester, etc., and different washing processes should be formulated according to different qualities.

This article will share the precautions when washing hotel linen with different fabrics!

hemp fabric

Hemp fiber is hard and has poor cohesion. It is lighter than cotton fabrics when washing. Do not use hard brushes and rub hard to avoid fuzzing on the cloth surface. After washing, do not twist with force, do not scald colored fabrics with hot water, and do not expose them to sunlight to avoid fading.

cotton fabric

Cotton fabrics have strong alkali resistance, acid resistance, and high temperature resistance, and can be washed with various detergents. Before washing, it can be soaked in water for a few minutes, but it should not be too long to avoid damage to the color. Hotel linen cannot be soaked in hot water, so as to avoid the protein in the sweat stains coagulating and sticking to the linen, and yellow sweat spots will appear.

When washing with detergent, the best water temperature is 40-50℃. After each rinse, it should be completely dried and then rinsed a second time to improve the washing efficiency. Avoid exposure to sunlight that can fade colored fabrics.

silk fabric

It should be dried in a cool and ventilated place, and should not be exposed to the sun or dried.

wool fabric

Wool is not alkali resistant, so it should be washed with a neutral detergent. The wool fabric will shrink and deform in the aqueous solution above 30 ℃, so the temperature of the washing bath should not exceed 40 ℃.

It should be dried in a cool and ventilated place, and not exposed to strong sunlight to prevent the fabric from losing luster and elasticity and causing a decrease in strength.

viscose fabric

Viscose fiber has a large shrinkage rate and low wet strength. Viscose fabrics can become hard when exposed to water, so wash them lightly to avoid fuzzing or cracking. Use neutral detergent or low alkali detergent. The temperature of the washing solution should not exceed 45°C. After washing, fold the linen, squeeze out the moisture, and avoid twisting. Avoid exposure to the sun after washing, should be dried in a cool or ventilated place.

polyester fabric

Soak in cold water for 15 minutes, and then wash with general synthetic detergent. The temperature of the lotion should not exceed 45 °C, and the dirty parts can be scrubbed with a brush.
