Polyester is a versatile, man-made fabric known for its durability, ease of care, and resemblance to silk or wool. It is moisture-wicking, making it ideal for long-lasting outerwear.

Recycled polyester can be produced from pre-consumer or post-consumer waste like plastic bottles, that is broken down into small chips then spun into yarn. This new yarn helps reduce the amount of used plastic in landfills and can be recycled again if ever discarded.

DO:

• Always refer to care label. Different polyester and blends might require dry or spot cleaning.
• Select a standard cycle on your washing machine. Opt for cool water. Polyester is heat sensitive and high temperatures can cause it to melt, shrink or deform.
• To minimize the need for ironing, garments should be hung immediately after drying. 

DON'T:

• Never use high heat in the dryer or use very hot iron to remove wrinkles.

Cotton is a natural, staple fiber that grows in balls around the seeds of the cotton plant. It is soft, breathable, lightweight, durable, and moisture-absorbent. A kind fibre to the skin that offers breathability, lightness, durability and good moisture-absorbing properties.

DO:

• Always refer to care label.
• Pre-treat your cotton garments to remove stain spots or specific regions exposed to sweat and antiperspirant (armpits and neckline areas)
• Wash in cold water, (30°C or below) whether using a washing machine or washing by hand and ensure colours are separated.
• 100% Cotton clothes may shrink if put in the dryer on a high setting- always use a low setting. Most cotton blends should be able to survive a low setting drying cycle shrink free.

DON'T:

• Mix cotton-coloured garments with white’s.
• Do not use hot water as it may shrink the fibres.
• Never use high heat in the dryer or use very hot iron to remove wrinkles.
