How to wash linen?

Machine Wash: Wash linen in cold or lukewarm water (30°C or below) on a gentle cycle. Hot water can weaken fibres and cause shrinkage.

Use Mild Detergents: Opt for gentle, liquid detergents without bleach or brighteners, which can damage the natural fibres.

Separate Colours: Wash light and dark colours separately to prevent colour bleeding.

Avoid Overloading: Give your linen space to move freely in the drum to reduce creasing.

How to dry linen?

Air Drying is Best: Hang linen garments or lay flat on a clean towel to dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause fading.

Tumble Drying: If needed, tumble dry on low heat, removing the linen while still slightly damp to avoid over-drying and to reduce wrinkles.

Avoid High Heat: High temperatures can cause linen to shrink and weaken the fibres over time.

How to iron linen?

Iron While Damp: Linen is easiest to iron when it’s slightly damp. Use a medium-hot iron and steam generously for a smooth finish.

Inside Out: Iron on the reverse side to protect the surface of the fabric, especially for darker colours or printed linens.

Natural Wrinkles: Embrace the fabric’s natural texture—some creasing is part of linen’s relaxed charm.

General Tips

Storage: Store linen garments in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic covers.

Crease Management: To reduce creasing, hang garments as soon as they’re dry. A gentle steam can refresh linen between wears.

Pilling & Pulling: Linen can pill less than other natural fibres, but avoid contact with rough surfaces to preserve its smooth finish.

Ageing Gracefully: Linen softens with each wash—this is part of its appeal. With proper care, it only gets better with time.
