The process encompasses the cleaning of knitted or woven garments designed to cover the torso, typically made of wool, cotton, or synthetic fibers. This cleaning action aims to remove dirt, stains, and odors, preserving the garment’s appearance and hygiene.
Maintaining the cleanliness of these garments prolongs their lifespan and enhances their comfort and appearance. The regular removal of accumulated dirt and body oils prevents fiber degradation and maintains the structural integrity of the item. Historically, methods have evolved from manual hand-washing techniques to automated machine washing processes, reflecting advancements in textile care and technology.
