In industrial and agricultural fields, drying rooms are widely used to dry agricultural products, wood, food, and other materials. But have you ever wondered if they can also be used to dry clothes? This article will give you a comprehensive understanding of the feasibility, precautions, and best practices for using a drying room to dry clothing.
Why Use a Drying Room to Dry Clothes?
In factories, hotels, hospitals, or labor units, the volume of laundry is large, and traditional air-drying takes a long time.
A drying room provides a constant-temperature, dry environment, effectively preventing clothes from becoming damp or spoiled.
For work uniforms or kitchen linens, a drying room can serve both drying and sanitizing functions.
In laundry plants, textile factories, and similar settings, large quantities of clothes need to be dried quickly and in bulk, making drying rooms far more efficient than natural air-drying.
Which Fabric Types Are Suitable for Drying in a Drying Room?
- Cotton: High-temperature resistant and highly absorbent.
- Linen: Heat-resistant and quickly absorbs moisture.
- Denim: Durable and wear-resistant, suitable for industrial drying.
- Polyester: Good heat resistance and dries quickly.
Fabric Types Unsuitable for Drying in a Drying Room
- Silk: High temperatures can damage fibers, causing fading or shrinkage.
- Wool: Easily shrinks, deforms, or pills.
- Down: High temperatures may damage the filling, reducing warmth.
- Clothes with Elastic Fibers (Spandex, Lycra): High temperatures can cause loss of elasticity.
The Process of Drying Clothes in a Drying Room
தயார்9யல்
- Ensure clothes have no metal accessories, stains, or loose items.
- Clothes should be washed and spun to remove excess water before drying.
Hanging
- Hang clothes on hangers or mesh racks.
- Avoid direct contact with heat sources.
- Leave enough space between clothes to allow proper air circulation.
உலர்த்தல்
- Temperature Setting: Recommended 50–60°C (polyester is heat-resistant, but excessive heat may affect elasticity and sheen).
- Air Circulation: Hot air in the drying room should circulate evenly to avoid high local humidity or over-drying.
- Time Control: Typically 30–60 minutes, depending on the thickness and moisture content of the clothes.
- Batch Monitoring: For large quantities, dry in batches and check the drying status periodically.
Cooling and Finishing
- After drying, let the clothes cool in a low-temperature airflow for 5–10 minutes to prevent shrinkage or static electricity.
