Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 3758 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 2, Cleansing,
finishing and water resistance tests.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 3758:2005), of which definition 2.4.2 natural
drying was revised. Symbols for natural drying processes were added in the new Table 4 and Annex C of the
2005 edition was deleted. Subclause 4.3 Use of symbols was revised as in this edition. The symbols for
bleaching in Table 2 have been technically revised and one symbol concerning bleaching has been changed.
In Table 6, Symbols for professional textile care, a symbol for “do not professional wet clean” was added in
this edition. Some editorial changes have also been made.

ISO 3758:2012(E)
Introduction
The variety of fibres, materials and finishes used in the production of textile articles, together with the
development of cleansing and care procedures, makes it difficult and often impossible to decide on the
appropriate cleansing and care treatment for each article simply by inspecting it. To help those who have to
make such a decision (principally the consumer but also launderers and dry cleaners), this code of graphic
symbols was established, based on the GINETEX care labelling system, for use in the permanent marking of
textile articles with information on their care in use as an International Standard in 1991. In certain countries
GINETEX has the intellectual property right of the 5 main symbols specified in this International Standard.
In order to make this code “easily understandable and recognizable” for the consumer world-wide, symbols
have been limited as to types and numbers as far as practicable.
The first and second editions of this International Standard published in 1991 and 2005 were a result of a
compromise between two requirements: being simple enough to be understood by users in all countries,
irrespective of the language they speak, yet providing as much information as possible to prevent irreversible
damage being caused during care treatments. This International Standard has been made sufficiently flexible
to accommodate the needs of practically all who wish to use it. This has been achieved by providing a
sufficiently large selection of care treatments, from which the user may select the most suitable for any
particular need.
The revision was necessary to reflect current cleansing practices including technical developments, new
bleach systems, and the alternative to conventional dry cleaning using aqueous systems. Furthermore,
modifications in the description of care processes have been introduced in order to avoid hindering process
development.
The international care label used in this International Standard gives care instructions using a sequence of
symbols in the order of five main treatments: washing, bleaching, drying, ironing and professional textile care.
Annex A has been developed to give a description of characteristics and available test methods to ensure the
correct selection of care symbols.
Annex B deals with regional and national requirements in care labelling.
When deemed necessary, words may be used as well as the symbols. Examples are included in Annex C.

SIST EN ISO 3758 : 2012
Predgovor
ISO (Mednarodna organizacija za standardizacijo) je svetovna zveza nacionalnih organov za standarde
(članov ISO). Mednarodne standarde ponavadi pripravljajo tehnični odbori ISO. Vsak član, ki želi delovati
na določenem področju, za katero je bil ustanovljen tehnični odbor, ima pravico biti zastopan v tem
odboru. Pri delu sodelujejo mednarodne vladne in nevladne organizacije, povezane z ISO. V vseh
zadevah, ki so povezane s standardizacijo na področju elektrotehnike, ISO tesno sodeluje z
Mednarodno elektrotehniško komisijo (IEC).

Mednarodni standardi so pripravljeni v skladu s pravili, podanimi v 2. delu Direktiv ISO/IEC.

Glavna naloga tehničnih odborov je priprava mednarodnih standardov. Osnutki mednarodnih
standardov, ki jih sprejmejo tehnični odbori, se pošljejo vsem članom v glasovanje. Za objavo
mednarodnega standarda je treba pridobiti soglasje najmanj 75 odstotkov članov, ki se udeležijo
glasovanja.
Opozoriti je treba na možnost, da je lahko nekaj elementov tega mednarodnega standarda predmet
patentnih pravic. ISO ne prevzema odgovornosti za identifikacijo katerihkoli ali vseh takih patentnih
pravic.
ISO 3758 je pripravil tehnični odbor ISO/TC 38 Tekstilije, pododbor SC 2 Preskusi čiščenja, zaključne
obdelave in odpornosti proti vodi.

Ta tretja izdaja razveljavlja in nadomešča drugo izdajo (ISO 3758:2005), katere definicija 2.4.2 naravno
sušenje je bila tehnično revidirana. V preglednico 4 so bili dodani simboli za naravno sušenje, v izdaji
standarda iz leta 2005 pa je bil izbrisan dodatek C. Točka 4.3 Uporaba simbolov je bila v tej izdaji
standarda revidirana. Simboli za beljenje v preglednici 2 so bili tehnično revidirani in eden od simbolov, ki
se nanaša na beljenje, je bil spremenjen. V preglednici 6 Simboli za označevanje profesionalne nege
tekstilnih izdelkov je bil dodan simbol »mokro čiščenje ni dovoljeno«. V tej izdaji standarda so bili
narejeni tudi nekateri uredniški popravki.
SIST EN ISO 3758 : 2012
Uvod
Zaradi raznolikosti vlaken, materialov in apretur ter razvoja novih postopkov čiščenja in nege je težko,
včasih celo nemogoče izbrati primeren postopek čiščenja in nege izdelka le na podlagi ogleda. V
pomoč tistim, ki se morajo vendarle odločiti (predvsem potrošnikom ter tudi pralcem in kemičnim
čistilcem), so bili leta 1991 v obliki mednarodnega standarda uvedeni grafični simboli za trajno
označevanje tekstilnih izdelkov (na podlagi sistema označevanja nege GINETEX), ki podajajo
informacijo o njihovi negi. V nekaterih državah je pet simbolov nege, ki so podani v tem mednarodnem
standardu, zaščitenih z intelektualno lastnino.

Da bi te simbole »zlahka razumeli in prepoznali« potrošniki po vsem svetu, so bili vrste in število
simbolov zmanjšani na najmanjšo možno mero.

Prva in druga izdaja tega mednarodnega standarda leta 1991 in 2005 sta bili rezultat kompromisa
med dvema zahtevama: biti enostaven in razumljiv uporabnikom v vseh državah ne glede na jezik in
sočasno posredovati čim več informacij, da zaradi postopka pri negi ne bi prišlo do nepopravljive
škode. Ta mednarodni standard je zelo prilagodljiv in upošteva zahteve praktično vseh, ki ga želijo
uporabljati. Izbor postopkov za nego je namreč dovolj velik, da lahko uporabnik izbere
najprimernejšega za določeno potrebo.

Ta standard je bilo treba revidirati zaradi vključitve najnovejših načinov čiščenja, ki zajemajo nove
tehnične razvojne dosežke ter nove postopke beljenja in mokrega čiščenja z uporabo vodnih
sistemov. Vključene so tudi spremembe v opisu postopkov nege, da potek postopka ne bi bil oviran.

Mednarodna etiketa ISO z navodili za nego daje navodila v naslednjem vrstnem redu simbolov:
pranje, beljenje, sušenje, likanje in profesionalna nega tekstila.

V dodatku A so opisane lastnosti in primerne preskusne metode za pravilno izbiro simbolov za nego.

V dodatku B so regionalne in nacionalne zahteve označevanja nege.

Če je treba, se lahko uporabijo besede in simboli. Primeri so navedeni v dodatku D.

SIST EN ISO 3758 : 2012
Tekstilije – Označevanje nege s simboli

1 Področje uporabe
Ta mednarodni standard:
– vzpostavlja sistem grafičnih simbolov za označevanje nege tekstilnih izdelkov in ponuja
informacije o natančnih postopkih, s pomočjo katerih naj bi se preprečil nastanek nepopravljive
škode med postopkom nege;
– podrobno opisuje rabo teh simbolov pri označevanju nege.

Ta standard zajema naslednje vrste gospodinjskih postopkov nege: pranje, beljenje, sušenje po pranju
in likanje. Obravnava tudi postopke profesionalne nege tekstilnih izdelkov, kot sta kemično in mokro
čiščenje, medtem ko industrijsko pranje ni vključeno. Ugotovljeno je namreč bilo, da so simboli v
pomoč tudi profesionalnim čistilcem in pralcem.

OPOMBA: Simboli za industrijsko pranje so v ISO 30023.

Ta mednarodni standard se uporablja za tekstilne izdelke v obliki, v kakršni so bili izročeni končnemu
uporabniku.
