How is the washing machine loaded correctly?

Posted by markwahl barg on December 13th, 2019

As suggested by Commercial laundry, the washing machine must not be loaded too full otherwise it will not be able to clean properly. A raised, spread hand should fit above the laundry still in the drum and then the dosage is right.

For fine or wool laundry, the washing machine should only be loaded halfway to achieve the optimum result. However, it is not worthwhile to hire the washing machine for three T-shirts.

This is an unnecessary waste of water and energy. Here I recommend rather hand wash because you can achieve a fresh smell by this very easily. Incidentally smell: hang the laundry immediately after washing - either at home on a clothes horse or like outside.

But be careful with sun and wind drying, while white shirts will benefit from the sun and turn a little whiter, may bleach colored and black clothing. By the way, we use the power of the sun in the production of the shirts and the operation of the server that lets you read this blog.

Ivy, soapnuts and alternative detergents:

Here we keep it a little shorter: For some years, you can also buy alternative means for washing that are Soapnuts, ivy leaves which are toxic to fish again and lots of powder.

Here we also recommend some research, as the information situation can change quite quickly. The problem is often the effect of "well-meant, but with negative side effects". So a soap nut can help quite well, but many in turn in other places. For example, the growing area, cause great problems. Or ivy leaves alone are quite helpful but use it many people, the effects cannot be foreseeable and strongly negative.

Fabric softener - yes or no?

In short, Commercial laundry advises against fabric softeners. This attacks the fiber structure, which on the one hand removes tiny "nodules" and a rough surface of the fiber, but it also shortens fibers, can accelerate the formation of holes and the perfuming is also critical to see.

Likewise, the dosages here are often well above what would be needed. This pollutes the water, interferes with the purification process in the sewage treatment plant and pollutes the rivers - but this can be kept to a minimum if the dosage is met.

After washing, our clothes look exactly as they did before washing. We want to continue to offer you the best quality with maximum comfort - clothes that you can wear and wash with a clear conscience.
