Maintenance and care
With a new product, it is like with a new relationship. We want to be together as much as possible, we are incredibly attentive towards each other and we are very careful not to spoil anything, we plan a common future and we believe it will be for life this time.
However... let's be honest, you will not celebrate any diamond wedding with some softshell. On the other hand, why not celebrate for example a tin wedding?
In other words, proper care and regular maintenance will extend the life of the product, save money and the environment. And this is worth it! :-)
Care for clothes
Instructions for puffers/feathers:
For quilting products we recommend gentle washing with a ball and the subsequent use of a dryer. This will secure a backward even distribution of the filling. Chemical cleaning is also possible, due to this, the filling remains in the original place for all the time.
