FR cleaning standards & care labels

What to bring to the store

• The garment with its care and identification labels.
• Details of stains, oils or other contamination.
• Any written manufacturer or employer requirements.
• Information about damage, previous repairs or chemical exposure.

Cleaning is not certification

We do not represent a cleaning service as independent certification, testing or restoration of a garment’s flame resistance, arc rating or high-visibility performance. We do not guarantee compliance with NFPA, ASTM, CSA or employer requirements through cleaning alone. Ask the manufacturer and your workplace safety contact about suitability, repairs and replacement.

Use the instructions for your actual garment

Different protective fabrics and garments have different care requirements. Do not substitute a general website guide for the instructions supplied with the garment. Bulwark’s published guidance directs users to the care label and explains that heavily soiled or petroleum-contaminated clothing may need cleaning or replacement.

Ask us to assess your order

We clean coveralls and work uniforms locally at our Fort McMurray store. Before bringing hazardous or unusually contaminated items, call so we can discuss whether the request is suitable. Estimates are free, and commercial pickup and delivery arrangements are confirmed with each account.
