• Sorting: Sort the washable clothes into e.g. white, grey/striped and dark/motley.
• Turn the clothes inside out: Wash the clothes inside out. In this way, washing consumes more of the inner surface than the visible outer surface.
• Washing temperature: Wash the laundry at either 30°c or 40°c depending on the recommended temperature on the washcloth. Hang the clothes up to dry immediately after washing.
• Ironing: Cotton is naturally wrinkled when washed. We recommend ironing.
• Shrinkage: Cotton features 5% shrinkage. To avoid this, you can gently stretch the garment horizontally and vertically after washing.
• Pre-wash: Note! We recommend pre-washing our products on their own: colors stick in the first wash, stains that come before that can be difficult to remove.

• Sort: Sort by color.
• Wash gently: Wash thin and delicate clothes in a laundry bag.
• Washing temperature: Wash the laundry at either 30°c or 40°c depending on the recommended temperature on the washcloth. Hang the clothes up to dry immediately after washing.
• Shrinkage: Viscose shrinks up to 8% in the first wash. You can gently stretch washed viscose products to prevent shrinkage.
• Ironing: We recommend either ironing at a light temperature or steaming.

• Color collection cloths: With colored and striped products, we recommend using color collection cloths. This way, for example, the stripes stay white even after years of washing.
• Stain removal: If the product gets a stain, first try to wash it locally with e.g. bile soap or a stain stick.
• Beware of bleaches: Do not use detergents or stain removers containing bleaches on colorful clothes. They may also remove the product's own color.
• Air it out: If the product is not really dirty, but has been worn a lot, you can air it out. The fibers freshen up well outside.
