By following these simple tips, you will enjoy and benefit from your woolen clothing from Lanullva even longer!
Wash your wool clothes as little as possible.
Not only is it better for the environment, but this will also give your wool clothes a longer life. Often, it is enough to hang the wool out to air at night. In no time at all, you will have freshly washed wool clothes the next morning – almost certainly.
Wool can absorb large amounts of water, which means less bacteria and odors when used. It is not without reason that wool has a reputation for being "self-cleaning".
Detergent for wool
Use detergent intended for wool, preferably our own Lanullva wool detergent , which is very mild and without preservatives. Enzymes and bleaches in regular detergents damage wool fibers. Wool should not be soaked, treated with chlorine or added to fabric softener and stain removers.
Wool program at max. 30° C
Machine wash on a wool program at a maximum of 30° C. Wool is cleaned at low temperatures because dirt and grime do not penetrate the wool fibers as easily.
Spinning max 400 rpm
Wool can withstand a gentle spin cycle. With our airy knitting method, we recommend washing the products with a spin cycle of a maximum of 400 revolutions. Remember to remove the garments immediately afterwards.
Dry flat, do not tumble dry
Wool cannot be tumble dried, and the products should preferably be dried flat. After washing, the garment can be gently stretched if you feel it has lost its shape. This is especially important for our thin wool collection, Havbris .
Wash a few wool items at a time
This is gentler on wool, and your wool clothes will retain their shape and function better. If you wash too many wool garments together, the garments will rub against each other and pilling will form more easily. Lanulva wool garments should only be washed together with wool garments of the same color.
Do not mix other types of textiles with wool in the washing machine.
Washing wool together with other types of textiles will cause felting and damage your wool garment.
Please wash your wool garment before use.
This allows our fine and airy knitting method to adhere better. This is especially true for garments from our thicker wool collection, Hustadvika .
