Fabric Types & Care

• How to care for Delicates? Delicates require extra care due to their fine fibers. These fabrics, such as lace, silk, and wool, should be washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Use mesh laundry bags to protect them during the wash and avoid machine drying when possible.

• How to care for Linens? Linens like sheets and towels are typically more durable than delicate fabrics but still require proper care. Use a mild detergent and avoid using too much bleach to preserve their texture and color. Wash towels separately from heavier items to ensure even cleaning.

• How to care for Towels? Towels should be washed regularly in hot water to remove bacteria and grime. Use a detergent that promotes softness and avoid fabric softeners, which can reduce towel absorbency over time.

• How to care for Sheets? Wash sheets in warm water, and avoid overloading the machine to ensure they get thoroughly clean. Dry them on a low setting to avoid shrinkage and to preserve their softness.

• How to care for Clothes? Clothes of all types should be washed according to their fabric care instructions. Always check care labels and separate laundry into colors and types of fabric to avoid damage or color bleeding.

• What is Fabric care? Fabric care involves choosing the right detergent, washing cycle, and drying method for different types of materials. Be mindful of temperature settings, fabric softness, and any specific instructions indicated on care labels.

Stain & Odor Removal

• Why does laundry smell bad? Bad smells in laundry are often caused by mildew, bacteria, or not drying clothes properly. To prevent this, leave the washing machine door open to allow airflow, and always dry clothes promptly after washing. You can also use baking soda or white vinegar during the wash to neutralize odors.

• How does Stain remover work? Stain removers are effective tools for tackling specific stains like oil, ink, or wine. Apply them directly to the stain before washing for the best results.

• Will laundry detergent kill mold? Laundry detergent alone may not completely kill mold or mildew, but using a mold-killing agent or adding vinegar or hydrogen peroxide to the wash can help. Always wash moldy fabrics promptly to prevent further growth.
