Wash and Care Guide

Wash and care guide for bamboo fabric, especially important for baby products to maintain the fabric's softness, durability, and quality:
Washing Instructions:
- Machine Wash on Gentle Cycle: Use cold or lukewarm water (up to 30°C/86°F) to prevent shrinkage and protect the fibers.
- Mild Detergent: Opt for a gentle, eco-friendly, or baby-safe detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or fabric softeners as they can damage the natural fibers.
- Avoid Overloading: Wash bamboo fabrics with similar items to prevent excessive friction, which could cause pilling or damage.
- Hand Wash Option: If machine washing isn't an option, hand wash in cold water with mild detergent. Gently agitate, but avoid scrubbing the fabric.
Drying Instructions:
- Air Dry: Lay flat or hang bamboo fabric to dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure can cause fading or stiffening of the fabric.
Storage:
- Cool, Dry Place: Store bamboo products in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight to prevent mildew or damage.
Wash and care guide for bamboo pillow, ensuring it stays comfortable, supportive, and long-lasting:
Washing Instructions:
-
Remove the Cover: Wash the cover separately following the same guidelines for bamboo fabric:
- Machine Wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (max 30°C/86°F).
- Use a mild detergent, avoiding bleach or fabric softeners.
- Air dry the cover or tumble dry on low heat.
-
Spot Clean the Pillow:
- Mix a small amount of mild detergent with water.
- Use a clean cloth to dab and spot clean the affected area gently.
- Just lightly dampen the area.
-
Deep Cleaning (If Needed): If a deep clean is necessary:
- Submerge the pillow briefly in cold water, squeezing gently to avoid damaging the filling.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water, then press out excess moisture carefully.
- Do not wring or twist the pillow, as this can ruin its shape and integrity.
Drying Instructions:
- Air Dry: Lay the pillow flat in a well-ventilated area to dry. Ensure it dries completely to avoid mildew. Placing it outside in the shade (not direct sunlight) works well.
- Tumble Dry on Low Heat (Optional): If you need to use a dryer, choose a low heat setting, but it’s generally safer to air dry.
Fluffing and Shaping:
- After washing and drying, fluff the pillow by hand, no-heat setting to regain its shape and softness.
Additional Tips:
- Avoid regular washing of the pillow itself (wash only the cover regularly). Frequent washing can wear down the pillow’s support over time.
- Consider using a pillow protector in addition to the bamboo cover to reduce the need for deep cleaning.
By following these steps, your bamboo pillow will maintain its comfort, durability, and freshness over time.
