Care

• Cold Water Only

Bamboo sheets should always be washed in cold water. While some may worry that cold water isn't sufficient for cleaning, rest assured that bamboo’s natural antibacterial properties make it difficult for bacteria and dust mites to thrive. 

• Gentle Detergents

It’s equally important to choose a mild laundry detergent. Avoid everyday detergents that contain optical brighteners, bleaches, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage your sheets and cause discoloration. Opt for a delicate wash formula, like those designed for wool.

• Removing Stains

For those tougher stains consider using a non-chlorine-based stain remover. There are plenty of options available that are gentle on bamboo fabric. Another effective method is to use baking soda – either as a paste or added to your wash.

• Gentle Cycle & Separate Wash

Select the delicate cycle on your machine and keep the temperature set to cold. It’s best to wash bamboo sheets on their own, rather than with other laundry items. This reduces the chance of damage caused by friction, such as rips, holes, or pilling.

• Drying

Dry your bamboo sheets on a delicate setting in the dryer is fine, but be sure to avoid high heat. Alternatively, you can air dry them. A great method is to let them air dry until they’re halfway dry, then finish them off in the dryer to maintain that soft, fluffy texture.

• Ironing

You can iron bamboo bedding, but keep the heat low. High heat can cause unsightly shine marks and damage the fabric. Using a steam iron is the gentlest method, or better yet, take the sheets out of the dryer and put them directly on the bed to allow any wrinkles to naturally relax.
