WASH GUIDE
Before you wash
Sorting
To get the best wash results it pays to sort your laundry before washing.
Read care labels as they will tell you how the fabric of each garments should be washed.
Sort clothes according to the type of and amount of soil. For example oily soils will require
a higher temperature to lift the stain, whereas mud and blood stains are better washed in
cold as heat can set the stain further into the fabric. Pretreating stains will also improve
upon wash results.
Always sort whites from coloured fabrics, and be sure to wash lint givers (such as towels)
separate to lint collectors (such as synthetics, socks and corduroy like fabric).

Before each wash be sure to check pockets and remove loose items that may cause
damage to both your washer and your clothes. Close all zippers, hooks and eyes to
prevent them catching on other garments.
Evenly distribute laundry around the bowl, and do not overload the clothes washer as this
will affect its performance.
Detergent
We recommend the use of a domestic top loader powder or liquid. The amount of
detergent to use will vary depending on the size of the load, the amount of soiling and the
type of laundry to be washed. For example, jeans and heavily soiled work clothes will
require more detergent, whereas towels will usually require less.
Follow the instructions on the back of the detergent to determine the correct dose for the
laundry to be washed. Too much detergent does not contribute to better wash results as
the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. This will unnecessarily add to environmental
pollution and a build up on the inside of your washer. Too little detergent may also cause
dirt and lint to settle back onto your clothes.
