From Grease to Greatness: Chef Uniform Care That Works
Chef coats and pants are more than uniforms—they’re essential for safety, hygiene, and professionalism in the kitchen. Proper care ensures longevity, stain resistance, and a polished look. Always follow care labels, pre-treat stains promptly, and wash uniforms separately in hot or warm water for effective grease removal. Avoid fabric softeners as they reduce breathability, and use oxygen bleach for whites. Iron coats on medium heat, focusing on collars and cuffs, while preserving structured details. For pants, empty pockets, turn inside-out, and avoid harsh spin cycles. Store both pieces in ventilated areas to prevent mildew and odors. A consistent maintenance routine safeguards hygiene, prevents fire hazards, and enhances durability—keeping your uniform crisp and confidence high in any professional kitchen.
