Full title and description

STB DIN EN ISO 3175-1 2018-04 — Textiles — Professional care, drycleaning and wetcleaning of fabrics and garments — Part 1: Assessment of performance after cleaning and finishing. This document is the German adoption of EN ISO 3175-1:2018 and is aligned with ISO 3175-1:2017, providing methods and guidance for assessing changes in textile and garment properties following professional cleaning and finishing.

Abstract

Specifies a method for assessing textile articles that have been subjected to procedures described in ISO 3175-2 to ISO 3175-4. The standard identifies fabric and garment properties that can change on drycleaning or wetcleaning and finishing, gives methods for assessing those changes using existing international standards where appropriate, and lists additional properties (in Annex A) for which standard assessment methods are not available.

• Number of pages: 17 pages (German/EN publication listing).

Scope

Defines assessment methods for evaluating changes in appearance, dimensions, handle, strength and other performance characteristics of textile fabrics and garments after professional drycleaning, wetcleaning and finishing processes. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the test procedures in ISO 3175-2 to ISO 3175-4 and to indicate where existing standards cover assessments or where further examination (Annex A) is required.

Key topics and requirements

• Framework for assessing post-cleaning and finishing performance of textile articles.
• Reference to specific test methods in ISO 3175-2 to ISO 3175-4 for laboratory simulation of professional cleaning processes.
• Identification and assessment guidance for properties such as dimensional change, color change/fading, surface appearance, pilling, shrinkage, tensile and seam strength, and handle.
• Normative Annex A: lists additional important properties without standardized test methods and provides advice on their assessment.
• Guidance intended for use by textile test laboratories, manufacturers and conformity assessment bodies when determining suitability of cleaning/finishing procedures.

Typical use and users

Used by textile and garment manufacturers, quality assurance and R&D labs, professional cleaning and finishing service providers, standards bodies, and certification or testing laboratories to evaluate and document how professional cleaning and finishing affect fabric and garment performance and appearance.

Related standards

Part of the ISO 3175 series; directly references and is intended for use with ISO 3175-2, ISO 3175-3 and ISO 3175-4 (which define the specific cleaning procedure simulations and test methods). National and regional equivalents include EN ISO 3175-1:2018 and BS EN ISO 3175-1:2018. The 2018 DIN edition replaces the earlier DIN EN ISO 3175-1:2010 edition.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: It is the German adoption (DIN EN ISO 3175-1:2018) of ISO 3175-1:2017, providing assessment methods for evaluating textile articles after professional cleaning and finishing.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers identification of properties affected by drycleaning, wetcleaning and finishing and gives guidance on assessing changes (using existing international standards where appropriate); it also points to additional properties and assessment advice in Annex A.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Textile and garment manufacturers, test laboratories, professional cleaning/finishing services, and conformity assessment / certification bodies use this standard to evaluate and document performance after cleaning processes.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The DIN EN ISO 3175-1:2018 edition (published April 2018) is the current German/European adoption of ISO 3175-1:2017 and replaced the 2010 edition. ISO indicates the 2017 edition as the active international text.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is Part 1 of the ISO 3175 series. Parts 2–4 define laboratory procedures and specific test methods for the various professional cleaning and finishing processes that Part 1 references.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Textiles, professional care, drycleaning, wetcleaning, assessment, performance after cleaning, finishing, ISO 3175, garment testing.
