Washing and maintenance instructions:
Printed fabric - synthetic fibers (polyester) - sublimation : Always favor washing in cold or lukewarm water, drying at low temperature and sorting by color, for any fabric from any source. This greatly helps its long-term preservation, washing in hot water and drying at medium-high temperature will not cause discoloration. NEVER IRON.
Printed fabric - natural fibers (cotton and bamboo) - direct printing : You must always fix the colors of your fabric before the first wash. To do this, we suggest a simple technique of soaking for about 1-2 hours in a mixture of cold water, vinegar and coarse salts. Afterwards, it is important to sort by color, always wash your fabric in cold water on a delicate cycle and prefer a mild phosphate-free detergent as well as avoid the use of strong stain removers. For cotton, tumble dry on a delicate cycle. For bamboo: hang to air dry. These important steps will greatly prevent your fabric from fading. The printing technique for natural fibers (cotton and bamboo) is not the same as that used for synthetic polyester fibers which are not at risk of fading. It is important to know that the high heat of your water or dryer air on your bamboo or cotton (natural fibers) as well as high friction can cause your fabric to fade prematurely.
