Choosing the right bedding can enhance the overall look of your bedroom. However, it is equally important to take proper care of your bedding to ensure its longevity. Proper washing and maintenance methods can help you avoid unwanted trouble.


In this article, we will introduce you to some common washing and maintenance tips that will help you take care of your bedding.


Bedding cleaning frequency:


The frequency of cleaning your bedding depends on your personal hygiene habits. Before the first use, rinse the bedding in water to remove any floating color or printing pulp.


This will make the fabric softer and prevent color fading even after multiple washes.


Washing procedures:


In general, most bedding can be washed in water using neutral detergent. It is essential to keep the water temperature below 30 ℃ to avoid any damage to the fabric. It is also important to dissolve the detergent completely in the water before adding the bedding.


Do not soak the bedding for too long, as this may cause unwanted fading due to the use of alkaline detergent or high water temperatures.


To avoid staining, separate light-colored and dark-colored products while washing. If you plan to use a tumble dryer, ensure that the temperature does not exceed 35°C to prevent excessive shrinkage.


Fiber Quilt: You can wash fiber quilt with water, but do not rub it with washing powder. It is better to use detergent and avoid soaking for more than half an hour.


Silk Quilt: Dry cleaning is the best way to clean silk quilt. If you wash it in water, use a special silk detergent as silk is not suitable for strong stain removal supplies. Avoid using bleach and air dry it in a well-ventilated area.


Wool Quilt: Wool quilt should not be washed in water, only dry cleaned. It is best to air dry it in a well-ventilated area for 30 minutes to an hour to achieve the effect of sterilization and dehumidification.


Before washing your bedding, read the washing instructions carefully. Products with decorative accessories should be washed after carefully removing any lace or charms to prevent damage.


Storage:


When collecting your bedding, wash them first and dry them thoroughly. Fold them neatly and put a certain amount of mothballs (not in direct contact with the product) in a dark, low-humidity, and well-ventilated place.


It is also essential to dry long-term unused quilt products in the sun before reusing them to restore their fluffiness.


Proper washing and maintenance of your bedding can ensure its longevity and enhance the overall look of your bedroom.


Follow the washing instructions provided with the product and use mild detergents to avoid damaging the fabric.


Remember to store your bedding in a dry, dark, and well-ventilated place with mothballs to prevent any damage from pests.
