The HAMO Guide to Product Care
Most of society believes that natural fabrics do not require special care. In fact, this is not true. The more natural the fabric is, it means it does not contain any impurities (such as viscose) and it needs more care. The advantage of natural fabrics lies in their properties. When we wear products made of natural fabrics, we know that the skin breathes. That is why it is important, when you decide to become a consumer of natural fabric products, to get as much information about the fabric and how to care for it.
Canvas
Canvas fabric can be washed by hand or in a washing machine at 30 degrees, in cold or slightly warm water. Canvas is a very crumple fabric, so when washing in a washing machine, it is advisable to wash the product inside out, do not wash with heavy fabrics such as jeans. Washing at temperatures above 30 degrees will cause 10% fabric shrink and weaken the fabric fibers. Do not use the purge mode. When washing, use detergent, not powder. We recommend the use of an additional fabric softener, which will keep the fabric soft longer.
Cotton
Cotton fabric is made from natural plant fibers. Clothing made of cotton fabric is quite comfortable and breathable. Clothes made of 100% natural cotton require more care, as they are able to retain their original appearance for a long time, despite the washing. It is recommended to wash them by hand or in a washing machine. Natural fabrics all dyed, so in order to preserve the color of the fabric for a long time and not to make it shrink, washing should be carried out at a temperature below 30 degrees, in cold or slightly warm water, using a liquid, not powder. When washing in a machine, the spin mode should be turned off. Using an extra fabric softener will keep the fabric soft for longer periods of time.
