The Key To Preserving Sustainable Clothes Made From Recycled Fabrics Is To Wash Them As Little As Possible, Which Also Helps Save Energy And Keeps Environmentally Harmful Microfibres Out Of Precious Ecosystems. However, When There’S Nothing Left To Do Other Than To Give Your Recycled Knits, Sweaters And T-Shirts A Wash, Here’S What You Should Be Doing.
* Hand Wash With Cold Water.
Synthetic Fabrics That Have Been Recycled Using A Mechanical Recycling Process – To Create New Sustainable Fashion Styles – Tend To Be A Little Weaker Than Virgin Synthetics. This Means That The Utmost Care Should Be Made To Ensure They Are Not Subjected To Undue Damage During The Washing Process. By Washing Such Eco-Friendly Garments By Hand, You Prevent Fibres Breaking During A Rigorous Washing Machine Cycle. This Garment Care Tip Also Prevents Clothes From Shedding Pesky Microfibres, Which Can Do Damage To Precious Eco-Systems. 
* If You Choose To Machine Wash, Be Sure To Use Cold Water, Low Spin Programs And Short Wash Cycles.
By Abiding By These Three Washing Machine Rules, You Will Ensure That Your Favourite Sustainable Jacket, Eco-Friendly Sweater Or Ethical Knit Remain In Tip Top Condition. This Is Because Low Temperatures And Less Violent Spin Cycles Create Less Friction And Fewer Temperature Extremes That Sustainable Garments Have To Endure.
* Wash As Part Of A Full Load, But Without Any Sharp Or Hard Objects.
Sharp Or Hard Objects Can Include Anything That Could Catch, Rip Or Tear Your Beloved Sustainable Sweater Or Eco-Friendly Knit. Such Objects Can Include Shoes, Soccer Shin Pads, Zips And Velcro. You Get The Idea! By Washing Recycled Fabric Garments In Full Wash Loads You Prevent Clothes From Tumbling And Crashing Into Each Other, Movements Which Can Also Lead To The Unwanted Deterioration Of Your New Or Used Eco-Friendly Outfits.
* Use A Clothing Bag To Capture Microfibres.
Clothing Bags Are A Great Option For When You Are Washing Any Sustainable Clothing, But Especially Those Pieces From Your Sustainable Wardrobe, Crafted From Recycled Synthetic Fabrics Like Recover™. They Act To Prevent The Microfibres That Are Shed By Your Sustainable Clothes From Flowing Off In Your Washing Machine’S Waste Water, Before They Make Their Way Into Natural Waterways, Become Airborne, Or Are Ingested By Wildlife. Just Throw Your Sustainable Garments In The Clothing Bag And Wash As Normal. Such Bags Also Act As An Added Layer Of Protection For Your Sustainable Clothes During A Wash.
* To Remove A Stain, Spot Wash The Affected Area With Mild Soap And A Sponge. 
As Is The Case With Most Pieces Of Eco-Friendly Clothing We Produce, It’S Advisable To Spot Clean Stains And Marks Rather Than Washing The Entire Sustainable Garment. This Not Only Saves Water And Energy, But It Also Bolsters The Longevity Of Pieces Made From Recycled Fabrics. 
* Do Not Tumble Dry.
Tumble Drying Synthetic Clothing Of Any Kind Is Never A Good Idea. Once Again, The Process Can Lead To The Unnecessary Release Of Thousands Of Harmful Microfibres, But It Is Also Largely A Waste Of Energy, With Recycled Synthetic Fabrics Being Fast Drying. Air Dry Your Favourite Eco-Friendly T-Shirt, Sustainable Shirt Or Ethical Knit, Either Indoors Or Outdoors, And You Will Be Amazed At How Quickly It Dries. Just Make Sure You Don’T Put Such Garments On A Radiator Or Expose Them To Direct Sunlight. 
* Do Not Use Fabric Softener.
As Garment Care Experts,We Are Not The Biggest Fans Of Fabric Softener. Too Often It Leaves A Residue On Your Sustainable Clothes (This Is What Gives The Illusion Of Softness) But That Same Residue Can Act To Lock In Nasty Stains And Smells. No One Wants That, Least Of All When It’S Their Favourite Eco-Friendly Outfit!
* Dry Your Shirts On Clothes Hangers To Reduce Wrinkles.
Another Top Garment Care Tip For The Drying Of Shirts And Blouses Made From Recycled Fabrics, Like Recover™, Is To Put Them Directly On Their Hangers, Where They Can Be Left To Dry. This Prevents Wrinkles And Stops You Having To Subject Your Favourite Sustainable Shirts To The Dreaded Ironing Board. 
* Iron At Low Temperatures And Avoid Steam Settings.
It Is Pretty Rare To Ever Need To Iron A Sustainable Shirt, Sweater Or Knit Made From Recycled Synthetic Fabric, But If You Find Yourself Being Forced To, Ensure You Avoid Steam Settings And Only Use The Lowest Temperature Settings Available.
