Wash Less, Wear More
When washing your clothes, it is important to remember that less is more. Over-washing can damage the quality of your garments and have negative effects on the environment and your budget. Consider airing and shaking out your clothes instead of washing them after every use, as they may still be suitable for another wear. Additionally, try to promptly spot clean any stains instead of immediately throwing them in the washing machine.
Choose Eco-Friendly Products
For optimal garment care and environmental conservation, consider using eco-friendly laundry products and avoiding bleach and softeners. Eco-friendly detergents offer the same effectiveness as traditional ones but without the use of harmful chemicals and toxins. Bleach can harm fabrics, while softeners create a coating that can hinder beneficial qualities such as breathability and moisture absorption.
Dry Garments Naturally
Choose eco-friendly air-drying over using the dryer, as it is better for both your wardrobe and the environment. Ensure to promptly remove damp clothing from the washing machine to prevent wrinkles, mold, and mildew. Carefully shake and reshape garments, particularly jersey fabrics, before hanging them on a drying rack or hanger. Keep in mind, drying knitwear requires more attention.
Wash Mindfully
To ensure proper care of your garments, carefully read and follow the individual care labels. It is recommended to wash your clothing at low temperatures (max. 30°C) or cold, while filling the washing machine without overloading it to conserve water and energy. Remember to sort your clothes according to their specific care needs, separating light and darker colors and taking into consideration various fabrics.
