Permanent Press
Permanent or durable press garments and household items will usually not need pressing when washed and dried properly. However, some will be more wrinkle resistant than others.
The care needed for permanent press is a little different than for cottons. Permanent press will soften or become pliable when heated. This softening when it is in warm or hot wash water will allow wear wrinkles to be removed. It will also cause the fabric to wrinkle if it is crushed, squeezed or spun when hot.
Permanent press cycles of washers, when washer controls are properly set, will cool the clothes before the wash spin to avoid wrinkling. Because the clothes soften when heated, it is important to remove them from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops.
