The lifespan of linen products is more than 30 years if well cared for.
If something has been spilled on the linen fabric or the stain is fresh, press it with a clean and slightly damp cloth without disturbing the stain. Do not do anything that will wear out the fabric; Stay away from hot water and bleach, do not wash by rubbing. If the stain cannot be removed by the above methods, you can use a stain remover suitable for linen fabrics. Do not apply stain remover for more than ten minutes. Rinse the fabric thoroughly at the end of the process.
Linen is a type of fabric that is extremely resistant to bacteria, moths and sweat compared to other types of fabric. However, cleaning linen fabric, which is delicate in texture, requires care and precision. If you need to wash it in the machine, cold water should be used, and if you are going to wash it by hand, you should not scratch it. Since heavy stain removers such as bleach will wear out the linen fabric, you should stay away from such products during washing.
Flax fiber has the ability to absorb and release water quickly. It can hold up to 20% of its own moisture without being wet. Since the drying process is shorter than other fabrics, a special setting must be used in the dryer for linen fabrics. However, linen fabric dries best on a line.
Ironing
It is recommended to start ironing the linen fabric from the inside out while it is damp and finally iron it from the face to give it its natural shine. Moistening the linen, which is too dry during ironing, makes it easier. Stubborn wrinkles can be removed more easily by slightly wetting them.
Steam ironing on pure linen gives excellent results. Since linen fiber has low flexibility due to its natural properties, folding it repeatedly in the same place may cause it to break.
