Shirt Laundering It might seem that laundering a shirt and returning it to you on a hanger is a simple procedure. Actually, it is one of the most time-consuming and tedious tasks in our plant. Making sure that your choice for your favorite shirt on Monday morning is a pleasant experience is a labor of love by our dedicated staff.

First: Your shirts are all unbuttoned, your pockets checked for valuables or those little Post-It notes that will discolor your shirt. Your elbows, collars, and cuffs are then examined for wear and special stains.

Second: Collars and cuffs are scrubbed with special soaps that are technically engineered to remove those special "ring around the collar" stains.

Third: Colors and fabrics are sorted into individual loads to ensure proper cleaning.

Fourth: Combinations of soaps, sizings and synthetic oxygenated bleaches are designed for each special load.

Fifth: The load is then washed, rinsed, and extracted, a process that takes almost one hour to ensure proper removal of all stains safely.

Sixth: The shirts are removed from the washer/extractor and "shaken out" to get them ready for the pressing team.

Seventh: Using the most modern technologies, the shirts are pressed using the proper heat and air pressure to give you a crisp shirt that will keep its sharpness throughout your workday.

Eighth: The shirts are then examined by an inspector.

Ninth: Any missing or broken buttons are carefully matched and sewn on.

Tenth: A "touch-up" presser provides the finishing touches with a hand iron.

Eleventh: An assembler then puts your shirt order together.
