Cleaning corduroy fabric may seem like a simple task, but in fact, cleaning clothes made of corduroy fabric is not as simple as you think. How to properly wash and handle clothing made of corduroy fabric is a very important matter. Before washing, drying, or ironing, be sure to check the label on the clothing as it will tell you how to do it

Yuntao Textile kindly reminds that when using a washing machine to clean clothes made of corduroy fabric, please turn the clothes over and separate them from materials with fluff such as towels, sweaters, and fleece jackets. That's because corduroy attracts cotton fibers that are difficult to remove. Also, separate light and dark colors to prevent any color bleeding. Clothes made of corduroy fabric should be washed with mild detergent according to normal cycles as much as possible. Use cold or warm water, as hot water may cause excessive fabric shrinkage, especially when using pure cotton. Dark colors should be placed in cold water as much as possible to prevent color transfer and bleeding. Cotton corduroy can be dried on medium heat in a drum dryer. When the dryer is still damp, remove it from the dryer and hang or lay it flat. This will reduce wrinkles

Hang up and store clothes made of corduroy fabric to minimize wrinkles. However, caution is required when hanging them with clips or nails as they may leave marks. Try not to fold the corduroy as it can also leave marks. Ensure that your corduroy items are clean before storage. You can use breathable storage bags made of canvas to prevent insects. It is not recommended to store them in plastic as it can cause moisture, mold, and insect infestation

The above are the cleaning and storage methods for corduroy fabric items, hoping to help you
