Our top tips for caring for your clothes and preserving their quality over the long term.
Dose your detergent sparingly
By using the right amount, you’ll benefit from economical detergents that save your budget, your washing machine and the environment. Avoid overloading your washing machine with detergent in the belief that your clothes will be cleaner; modern machines are designed to minimize water consumption and are sensitive to overdosing. Excessive use of detergent can lead to residues and clogging of the machine.
Does my garment really need washing?
A large proportion of household water pollution comes from cleaned clothes, mainly synthetics. During a washing cycle, around 700,000 man-made fibers are spilled from your clothes, contributing to water pollution.
Did you know?
With a fleece jacket, 30% of the jacket’s mass disappears in the first 5 washes! Before cleaning your clothes, it’s a good idea to ask yourself: does this garment really need to be washed? If there are no stains or bad odors, it’s safe to wear again.
For some garments (particularly cashmere and wool), placing the garment on a hanger and airing for 24 hours may also be sufficient!
Washing machine maintenance
To keep your washing machine in good condition and prevent the build-up of residues and scale, we recommend cleaning it with vinegar 2 or 3 times a year. This frequency will depend on the hardness of your water and the frequency of your washes. If you already use vinegar as a softener, this cleaning is not necessary!
