Ironing in Chiang Mai — Why Most Laundries Get It Wrong
If you’ve ever collected laundry from a service in Chiang Mai and wondered why your clothes still looked creased, you’re not imagining it. A quick pass with an iron is standard practice at most laundries — enough to smooth the surface but not enough to do the job properly. Collars are missed, trouser creases are wrong, and shirts that should look sharp come back looking average.
At Em’s, we do things differently.
Our folding is so good, people think it’s been ironed
Before we even talk about ironing, it’s worth mentioning our folding. Em’s has built a reputation over 20 years for folding that is genuinely meticulous — every garment handled carefully, every crease considered. Customers regularly collect their laundry and assume it’s been ironed. It hasn’t. That’s just the standard we hold ourselves to.
When we iron, we really iron
Proper ironing at Em’s takes time. A lot of time. Each garment is worked through carefully — collars, cuffs, pockets, seams, trouser creases. We get it right. The result is a garment that looks the way it should: crisp, correct, and genuinely impressive.
This is not a quick pass. This is not what most laundries in Chiang Mai offer. And yes, it costs more — because it has to.
Who needs proper ironing?
If you have a business meeting, a wedding, a formal event, or simply a shirt you care about, proper ironing makes a real difference. Clothes that fit well and are pressed correctly carry a presence that a mediocre iron job simply cannot achieve.
Many of our customers bring specific garments for ironing — suits, dress shirts, formal wear — while using our standard wash, fold and return service for everything else.
