Drying
How to dry in a gentler way
Proper drying can help maintain Tekla pieces but also reduce environmental impact.
Remove laundry as soon as the cycle is complete and shake out before drying to prevent damp and creases.
Natural fibres such as cotton need to be stretched slightly to return to their pre-wash shape. Stretching products while they are still damp can reduce the need for ironing.
Line dry whenever possible, away from direct sunlight. This is more gentle to fabric fibres and can help increase a product’s life span.
When tumble drying, use a low heat.
Use dryer balls when tumble drying to reduce energy usage.
If you choose to iron your products, iron while they are still damp. This helps remove creases and uses less energy.
Products should never be stored damp. This allows bacteria to grow and can cause odour.
