Care Instructions

MACHINE WASHING
• Pre-wash your linens before
first use.
• Separate linens from other
items in the wash, especially
those containing polyester
which tends to create pilling.
Also, items with heavy zippers
which can abrade and damage
the fabric.
• Do not overload the washing
machine. Overloading can cause
fibers to break down from
excessive abrasion and
agitation.
• Wash in warm water using a
non-chlorine bleach detergent
on a gentle cycle with a cold
water rinse.
DETERGENT
• Use a mild liquid detergent,
preferably non-alkaline,
without added bleach or
whiteners.
• Do not pour detergent directly
on linens. Instead, add it to the
water as the wash tub fills or
dilute with water, then add
linens.
• Unless linens are very soiled,
only use half the recommended
amount of detergent.
BLEACHING
• Do not use chlorine bleach as it
can weaken fibers and cause
them to yellow prematurely.
• If white fabrics need bleaching,
use an oxygen-based bleach.
DRYING
• Line drying recommended.
• Shake out damp linens before
placing in the dryer and tumble
dry on low heat until slightly
damp.
• Never use a high heat setting or
over dry; this will weaken the
fibers, cause shrinkage and
shorten the life of your linens.
• Remove from dryer promptly
while slightly damp to minimize
wrinkles.
• Smooth and fold or press with
an iron if desired.
CHEMICALS
• Some hair and skin products
such as acne lotions or
toothpastes that contain
oxidizing agents may cause
discoloration and pilling
of linens.
STORAGE
• Store bed linens in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area.
• Linens stored long-term should
be wrapped in white cotton or
acid free paper.
• Avoid storing linens in plastic
bags or boxes, which can cause
permanent yellowing.
