CARE RECOMMENDATIONS:

You may machine wash on gentle cycle using lukewarm water and a mild detergent (we suggest using SIGVARIS washing solution for best results). For the Natural Rubber Series, hand washing is recommended. To protect the garment during washing, we recommend using a lingerie bog. Rinse well and air-dry. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners and avoid tumble drying.

Stockings with Silicone band:
For optimum performance of the silicone band, you may want to wipe it regularly with a clean cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol. This will remove skin oils and lint from clothing that could decrease the effectiveness of the silicone.

Stockings with Velcro™ attachment:
Before washing, please match and Fasten the two pieces together. This protects the Velcro™ and ensures optimum long-term performance.

Important:
Sharp fingernails, rings and bracelets may cause damage when putting on and removing the stockings. Do not cut or pull loose ends, which sometimes appear on the inside of the stockings.

SIGVARIS' Commitment to Patient Well Being

As a global leader in leg health, SIGVARIS is committed to using a natural finishing process rather than applying unnecessary synthetic chemicals to our garments. With our unique approach in using double-covered inlay yarns, our garments provide industry-leading moisture wicking capabilities and easy donning without the use of potentially irritating chemicals. To help promote well being, SIGVARIS uses a natural antimicrobial that inhibits the growth and odor of bacteria, mold, mildew and fungi. This feature is hypo-allergenic, does not wash out and is environmentally friendly. SIGVARIS is not only committed to leg health, we are also committed to a healthy lifestyle.

Our Natural Finishing Process:

• Hypo-allergenic
• Prevents the spread of bacteria and fungi
• Provides odor control
• Environmentally friendly
• Provides industry-leading moisture wicking properties

Always consult your physician before ordering compression to determine the proper compression strength of your condition.
