Here are many ways of colouring fabrics; some are woven from dyed yarns, some are dyed after weaving; and some are coloured by printing the surface. In spite of modern technology colour failures continue to occur. The problem is that some dyes are soluble in drycleaning solvent. A blend of two or more dyes in a garment where only one is solvent soluble, can result in major colour change, e.g. a purple garment coloured from a blend of red and blue dyes will end up either red or blue if one dye is soluble and is removed. Colour failure occurs frequently in household ...
Care Labels
In the UK Care Labelling is a voluntary system. However, current Trading Standards practice suggests that when a care label has been put into a garment (or any textile item) then that label becomes part of the description of the article in respect of the 'Sale of Goods Act – Fitness for Purpose' and is therefore legally binding. A care label gives the recommended care instructions. The label must be attached so that it will not become separated from the product, and it must remain legible during the useful life of the product. You should be able to see the care ...
