Why is Tencel considered better than Organic Cotton?
Tencel is often considered better than organic cotton for several reasons:
• Softer Feel: Tencel has a smoother, silkier texture, making it gentler on sensitive skin.
• Better Moisture Management: It wicks moisture more efficiently, keeping you cooler and drier.
• Hypoallergenic: Tencel resists bacteria and dust mites, reducing the risk of skin irritation and allergies.
• More Eco-Friendly Production: The closed-loop process used to make Tencel recycles water and solvents, resulting in lower environmental impact.
• Durability: Tencel is strong yet soft, retaining its quality even after multiple washes.
• Quick Drying: It dries faster than cotton, reducing chances of bacterial growth.
Both are sustainable, but Tencel offers additional skin and performance benefits.
Can I wash the bedding in the washer?
Yes. Wash Cold - Use cold water on a gentle cycle to maintain the fabric’s softness and prevent shrinkage.
Can I use regular detergents?
• Mild Detergent - Choose a gentle, natural, skin-friendly detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
• Avoid Fabric Softeners - Tencel is naturally soft, no need for extras.
How do I dry the bedding?
• Drying - Air dry flat or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat to prevent damage. High heat can dull that sheen over time, so low and slow is the way to go.
• Ironing - If needed, use a low setting while the fabric is still slightly damp, or use a steamer.
Can I use dryer balls?
Yes, you can use dryer balls with Tencel. Wool or silicone dryer balls are a safe, natural way to reduce drying time and static without damaging the fabric. Just make sure to use them on a low heat setting to protect Tencel’s fibres and keep that smooth, soft feel intact.
