Laundering

Always ensure you read the label for specific care instructions, as they may vary. A few simple measures after each wear will ensure your Australian Merino wool garments remain in great condition.

Laundering

Where possible it is recommended to turn the garment inside out for laundering and to avoid bleaches and biological detergents, unless they are Woolmark approved. Like colours should be laundered together.

There are generally four laundering options (depending on the care claim in the label):

1. Dry clean only - your Australian Merino wool garment should be taken to a reputable dry cleaner to ensure that the superior quality of this garment is well looked after.

2. Hand wash - luke warm hand wash at approx 30°C, using a gentle Woolmark approved detergent and rinse well. Dry knitwear flat and line dry wovens.

3. Machine washable - ideally wash on a wool or Woolmark cycle - if this is not available then put on a maximum of 40°C gentle action wash.

4. Total easy care - follow machine washable instructions, your Australian Merino wool garment can then be tumble dried on a low setting or delicate cycle.
