Update: ISO 3758:2023 Textiles - Care Labelling Code Using Symbols

Dec. 15 2023

On the 6th December 2023 a new version of the standard ISO 3758 was published superseding the version from 2012. The main aim of the standard is to align to the GINETEX symbols more closely.

The main changes are as follows:

  • some exemptions have been introduced into the Scope
  • a new symbol has been introduced for wash by hand at ambient temperature
  • a new symbol has been introduced for ironing without steam
  • new solvents have been introduced
  • graphical changes have been introduced in symbols of wash by hand, do not wash, do not bleach and do not iron, in order to align them to the GINETEX ones.
  • three alternative examples of use of symbols have been introduced
  • "Adaptation of registered graphical symbols for use in practice", has been added.
