Denim is primarily made from cotton and undergoes an indigo dyeing process to make the classic blue denim we all know. It’s durable and is mostly used in the clothing industry. Due to its versatility, denim can be cut in many ways and styles. Purex® shares common items that are made with denim and how to properly care for them.
This is the most common clothing item denim is used for and worn by all ages. Over the years, jeans have evolved and now are available in many styles including straight, skinny, bootcut, and flare jeans.
Denim jackets are a popular clothing item made from denim. Like jeans, they come in many different styles and washes.
Separate your denim by light and dark colored denim. For dark colored denim, wash in cool water. For lighter colored denim or white denim, wash in warm water. Using Purex® liquid detergent or Purex® Pacs would work for either load, keeping your clothes looking fresh at an affordable price.
Whether it’s light-colored denim or dark colored, tumble dry the denim fabric to avoid shrinkage.
Before placing in the wash, always check the care label on your denim to see if there are specific instructions. Also, avoid washing them after every wear to avoid them fading.
