Prolong the Life of Your Clothing

Taking good care of your garments is key to extending their life cycle. Here are some simple tips for keeping your clothes in great condition:

1. Wash Less, Wear More

Did you know...Most clothes never get worn out – they get washed out! Washing clothes too often can affect their quality and harm the environment. Try airing your clothes out or spot-cleaning stains instead of washing them after every use. Your clothes will last longer with less frequent washes.

2. Dry Garments Naturally

Skip the dryer and air-dry your clothes whenever possible. Shake them out to reduce wrinkles and hang them to dry. For knitwear, take extra care to shape them gently before drying. This helps prevent wear and tear and saves energy.

4. Wash Mindfully

Pay attention to care labels and wash clothes at lower temperatures. Avoid overfilling your washing machine to ensure proper washing and to reduce friction that can damage fabrics. Separate dark and light colours to prevent colour transfer.

6. Use Proper Amount Detergent

Using the right detergent is essential for keeping your clothes in good condition. Always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging, and avoid using excess detergent, as it won’t clean your clothes better but could damage the fabric.

Opt for eco-friendly laundry detergents to protect both your garments and the planet. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they damage fabrics and reduce breathability. Eco-friendly detergents are just as effective but without harmful chemicals.
