A Guide To Pillow Washing
Over time, our dead skin, sweat, and drool will penetrate into the pillow, which might cause the breeding of the dust miles and increase the risks of having allergic problem on our immune system.
Pillow must be washed at least once every half year. Before washing the pillows, we need to check the label, because not all the material of pillows can be washed in the washing machine. Most pillows such as cotton, synthetic and feather pillows can be cleaned in the washing machine by using warm water on the normal wash cycle. If you have a foam pillow, you will need to use the hand washing method to clean your pillow instead of using washing machine.
To ensure the cleanliness of our pillow, please follow the washing steps below:
Washing cotton, synthetic and feather pillow
Step 1:
First, remove the pillowcase and protector
Step 2:
Put the pillows into the washing machine and try to wash two pillows together so that the washing machine will be balanced.
Step 3:
Add one scoop of detergent before starting washing
Step 4:
Adjust the setting so that the wash cycles run with warm water for washing
Step 5:
After the washing process completed, put the pillows in the dryer to dry the pillows more quickly.
