How to Care for Your Linen and Organic Cotton Bedding So It Lasts for Years

How to Care for Your Linen and Organic Cotton Bedding So It Lasts for Years

Beautiful bedding is an investment, and with the right care, it can last for many years while becoming softer and more comfortable over time.

Here is exactly how to care for your organic cotton and linen bedding the ecolinen way.

Washing Your Bedding

  • Wash in cold or warm water

  • Use a gentle, low residue detergent

  • Avoid bleach and harsh stain removers

  • Wash separately from items with zips or hooks

Over washing is not necessary. Let your bedding breathe between uses.

Drying Tips

  • Line drying is ideal whenever possible

  • If using a dryer, choose low heat

  • Remove while slightly damp to reduce creasing

Sunlight naturally freshens fabrics and helps maintain their integrity.

Storing Your Bedding

  • Store in a cool, dry place

  • Avoid plastic storage containers

  • Let fabrics breathe using cotton storage bags

Never store bedding damp or in humid areas, as this can encourage mildew.

Why Gentle Care Matters

Organic fibres are strong, but they thrive with kindness. Gentle washing preserves softness, structure and colour, allowing your bedding to age beautifully rather than wear out quickly.

Many of our customers are still using their ecolinen pieces years later, and they only get better with time.
