Abstract

ISO 7769:2009 specifies a test method for evaluating the retention of pressed-in creases in fabrics after one or several cleansing treatments. A technique for inserting creases is not included as this is controlled by fabric properties.

This method has been developed for use primarily with type B domestic washing machines, as defined in ISO 6330, in the cleansing process. However, it may be possible to use it with type A machines, as defined in the same International Standard.
