Bamboo care
Bamboo viscose needs little care, always the same care. Follow it, and the fabric stays smooth for years.
In the washing machine
30°C, gentle cycle
Low spin. The first few times, wash new pieces separately.
Mild liquid detergent
No bleach and no fabric softener, which closes the fibres.
Air dry
Keep away from direct sun. No tumble dryer: when wet, viscose is more fragile and heat damages it.
Warm iron, if needed
Many people don't iron it at all: laid out well, it smooths out on its own.
Pilling
It happens from friction when the fabric is wet. That's why a low spin and not overloading the machine matter: with a load of jeans and zips, the viscose wears out faster.
