Some basic tips for washing your pillow
Before you begin, it's essential to check your pillow's care label. Make sure it's machine washable.
However, the pillows have covers that are machine washable. Made of percale cotton, lyocell, or bamboo, these Technisom covers can be machine washed at 60°C. However, always check the washing instructions on the labels of all covers.
Use a mild laundry detergent or liquid to avoid damaging the fibers of this cover. Harsh detergents can alter the texture and quality of the filling.
Adjusting your washing machine
Select a delicate cycle to wash your covers. Generally, lukewarm water is recommended. If your machine has a specific cycle for pillows or bedding, use it.
For a balanced wash, it is recommended to wash several pillowcases at once. This will help keep the machine stable and ensure a more even clean.
Baking soda and vinegar for a more effective wash!
A little grandmother's tip just for you: for a deep cleaning of your pillowcases, it is sometimes helpful to add half a cup of baking soda to your usual detergent.
For rinsing, consider adding half a cup of white vinegar to remove detergent residue and freshen pillowcases.
What drying method is best for your memory foam pillow?
After washing, proper drying is essential. If the care label on your pillowcase allows it, use a tumble dryer on a low heat setting.
You can add some tennis balls or special dryer balls to help restore fluffiness to your ergonomic pillow cover.
