GENTLE CARE FOR LINEN

The list of advantages of linen is long: ultra absorbent, hypoallergenic, antibacterial... It is also very appreciated for its role of thermoregulator by adapting to the temperature of a room to keep you warm in winter or cold in summer! But be careful, linen must be taken care of. A bad maintenance could deprive you of its benefits!

To wash linen without damaging it, it is advisable not to exceed 40 degrees in the wash and to accompany it with a gentle spin. In addition, be sure to banish chlorine-based detergents, which tend to yellow the fabrics. Preferably dry in the open air.

And good news! The crumpled effect of the linen that makes its charm offers the luxury of not needing to be ironed!
