Storing
How to properly store textiles
Products can be damaged even when not in use if not stored properly: moths, damp and poor folding can all reduce the life span of fabric. But proper storing is not difficult.
- Before storing away any product, make sure it is clean and dry.
- Fold products carefully and stack them loosely with the heaviest on the bottom to prevent creases setting in.
- Avoid keeping products in direct contact with wood, as wood contains some acids that can damage textiles if kept in contact for a long period of time.
- Consider using a natural moth repellent like cedar wood in the closet or storing compartment where products are kept.
- Be aware of moisture, humidity, heat, mildew and fungus when storing textiles. A dry room with an average temperature is optimal.
