Caring for Your Wool

Preserving Your Wool Integrity Products

Wool is a remarkable natural fiber with excellent properties that not only provide warmth but also contribute to the sustainability of your household.

With its inherent dirt-repellent nature and natural fats, wool requires less frequent washing, which is beneficial for the environment and climate.

By following a few simple care guidelines, you can ensure the longevity and quality of your Wool Integrity products:

Air Often, Wash Rarely

One of the remarkable qualities of wool is its ability to repel dirt and odors naturally. Instead of rushing to wash your Wool Integrity items, prioritize airing them out regularly. Simply hang your wool product outside in the shade to allow the fibers to breathe and refresh.

 Dry-cleaning is the Safest Option

Professional cleaning will help preserve the color, texture, and overall quality of your wool items.

 Gentle Hand Washing for Deep Cleaning

When your Wool Integrity product requires a more thorough cleaning, hand washing is the gentlest option. Use a wool-safe detergent and lukewarm water to create a mild cleaning solution. Carefully submerge the item, avoiding any unnecessary stretching or wringing. Gently massage the soapy water into the fibers and rinse thoroughly with cool water until all detergent residue is removed

 Line Dry to Preserve Wool's Integrity

After hand washing, it's crucial to handle your Wool Integrity products with care to protect their integrity. Press the item gently against the side of the basin to remove excess water, avoiding twisting or wringing. Lay a clean towel on a flat surface, place the washed item on top, and roll them together to absorb additional moisture. Finally, hang your wool blanket or throw to dry in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight. Rotate it occasionally to maintain its shape and prevent stretching. Do not tumble dry.

Remember, using a washing machine, even on delicate or wool cycles, can cause wool fibers to interlock, stiffen, and potentially lead to shrinkage.

By following these care instructions, you can maintain the integrity of your Wool Integrity products, allowing you to enjoy their warmth, comfort, and sustainability for years to come.
