  • Care Labelling Guide
    Care Labelling Guide This chart is for guidance only and should be read in conjunction with the ACCC Care labelling for Clothing Guide which specifies the mandatory standards for care labelling based on the Australian/New Zealand Standard (AS/NZS) 1957:1998, Textiles—Care labelling with variations and additions made by Consumer Protection Notice No. 25 of 2010. In Australia, care instructions must be permanently attached to articles, be written in English, and be appropriate for the care of the article. Additional symbols may be used to clarify the instructions but symbols alone are not sufficient. As a minimum, laundering instructions include (in order) four symbols: washing, bleaching, drying, and ironing. Drycleaning instructions include one symbol. Professional Wet Cleaning symbols are included for information only as they are not currently recognised in Australia. Washing The washtub symbol tells you how the garment should be washed. The number inside the washtub is the maximum wash temperature. A bar underneath the washtub indicates that the garment should have mild treatment or washed using the Permanent Press setting. Two lines underneath the washtub indicate gentle or delicate treatment. Normal Permanent Press Delicate / Gentle Hand Wash 95°c 70°c 60°c 50°c 40°c 30°c Do Not Wring Do Not Wash Bleaching The triangle symbol gives information about whether it is safe to bleach the garment.

  • MG HE Liquid Laundry Is Specially Formulated for Front Load High Efficiency Washing Machines
    MGMG HEHE LiquidLiquid LaundryLaundry Highly-Effective Laundry Detergent MG HE Liquid Laundry is specially formulated for front load high efficiency washing machines. Standard detergents can cause over-sudsing when less water is used, and using less detergent sacrifices cleaning power. MG HE Liquid Laundry provides excellent cleaning with optimal level of sudsing. It is specifically formulated with powerful ingredients to suspend more significant levels of soil. This helps leave your clothes looking bright. • Controlled Foam • Effective in Hard Water • Effective in Cold or Hot Water • Removes Oils, Grease & Fat • Prevents Soil Re-deposition • Easy Rinsing Usage Directions: Sort laundry into similar color, type of fabric and soil condition. When laundering items for the first time, test for colorfastness in a solution of laundry detergent and cold water. Add 2 - 8 ounces of MG HE Liquid Laundry per 100-pound load as the washing machine is filling with water. Clothing and machine manufacturer’s instructions should always take precedence over these recommendations. If desired, MG ChlorSan bleach may be added approximately two minutes after wash cycle begins or MG 7% Fabric Softener may be added to the final rinse. Quantity of MG HE Liquid Laundry used will vary depending on local water conditions, water temperature selected and the amount and type of soils to be removed. Cold water rinsing is recommended for all wash loads.
