Most technical fabrics/ Polyamides, end products experience a fair amount of exposure to the elements. Therefore, resistance to weather and environmental conditions is crucial, including sunlight and UV radiation, extremely high or low environmental temperatures. Resistance to bacterial growth is an important property for many technical fabric. It is the moral and legal responsibility of all businesses to minimize the environmental impact of their processes and products. You must consider the ecological impact of the material you select to ensure compliance with the prevailing environmental standards without compromising on the overall durability to ensure the product lasts as long as possible by enhancing the quality. You can also invest in processes that repurpose/recycle the products after their functional lifecycle.

Cold Machine Wash
- TECHNICAL FABRIC (Polyamide) | Technical garments can be machine washed to a maximum of 30°C. We recommend a cold wash with a short spin, or drip dry. You can also gently hand wash your item; rinse thoroughly and then drip dry on the washing line.
- COTTON POPLIN | Wash at 30°C using non-bio liquid, and wash the fabric before use as it is likely to shrink. Iron using the appropriate setting for cotton on your iron. Dry naturally or tumble dry on a low setting.
- COTTON LINEN BLEND | Cold wash using non-bio liquid, and wash the fabric before use as it is likely to shrink. Iron using the appropriate setting for cotton on your iron. Dry naturally or tumble dry on a low setting.
- COTTON SINGLE KNIT JERSEY (T-SHIRTS) | Single jersey knit / brushed fleece can be hand washed or machine washed at 30°C. Hand washing is always the best and safest method for jersey. For machine washing, turn the item inside out and place it in a mesh washing bag. Lay the item flat in its natural shape on a drying rack, hang to dry, or tumble dry on a low setting.
- 100% SILK AND SILK BLEND | Dry clean only is recommended, as silk has a tendency to shrink and become hard. Iron using the appropriate setting for silk on your iron. Dry naturally. No tumble drying.
