The main difference between washing fabrics at 40 degrees and washing at 60 degrees lies in the cleaning effect, fabric protection and specific treatment.
Washable at 40 degrees:
Suitable for routine cleaning of most fabrics, it can effectively remove daily stains, and protecting the fabric from damage at the same time.
For cotton fabrics, linen fibers, wool and other fabrics, washing at a water temperature of 40 degrees can maintain the original state of the fabric and avoid color fading or fiber damage.
Washing with soap or detergent at a water temperature of 40 degrees can easily remove stains and keep clothes white or bright.
Washable at 60 degrees:
It is mainly used to remove bacteria and mites, because higher water temperature can better kill bacteria and mites, which is especially suitable for occasions with high hygiene requirements.
For occasions that require deep cleaning or disinfection, such as hospitals, hotels, etc., washing with a water temperature of 60 degrees is more suitable.
Washing at 60 degrees is also suitable for some fabrics that require special cleaning, such as silk, viscose, etc., But you need to pay attention to the handling method after washing to avoid damage or deformation of the fabric.
To sum up, washing at 40 degrees is suitable for daily cleaning and protecting fabrics, while washing at 60 degrees is more suitable for deep cleaning and disinfection. The choice of the two should be based on the characteristics of the fabric and cleaning needs.
