<h4 id="isPasted">Linen&#xA0;</h4><p style="line-height: 1;"><em><span style="font-size: 14px;">Washing:</span></em></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">We recommend a warm (up to 40&#xB0;C) gentle machine wash with an all-natural detergent or a detergent that does not contain optical whiteners or brighteners. Do not bleach, soak or use any harsh chemicals. Do not dry-clean.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">As with all bedding and clothing, new linen should be washed before using for the first time. Please note, as per our returns policy we cannot accept washed linen so we recommend trying it on your bed before washing.</span></p><p style="line-height: 1;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><em>Drying:</em></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">You can line or tumble dry your linen. If line drying, please minimise prolonged and direct sun exposure where possible to safeguard the linen from uneven fading. If tumble drying, use a warm setting. Pull out promptly when finished and stretch out over the bed. Linen does not require ironing, however if desired, a warm iron setting or steamer can be used.</span></p><h4 id="linen--denim-towels">Linen &amp; Denim Towels</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Our Pure Linen &amp; Denim Towels can be machine washed on a warm cycle (up to 40&#xB0;C) and gently tumble or line dried. Do not bleach.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Due to the softening process during manufacturing, our towels may produce some excess lint when they first arrive. This will no longer happen after a few washes, so we simply recommend washing and tumble drying them separately.</span></p><h4 id="linen-waffle-robe">Linen Waffle Robe</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Our Linen Waffle Robe can be machine washed on a warm cycle (up to 40&#xB0;C) and then gently tumble dried. Warm iron if desired. Remove the tie belt before washing, and do not bleach.</span></p><h4 id="silk-linen-flip-pillowcase">Silk Linen Flip Pillowcase</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Our Silk Linen Flip Pillowcases can be machine washed on a warm cycle (up to 40&#xB0;C) and then gently tumble dried. Warm iron if desired and do not bleach. We recommend washing dark colours separately.</span></p>

<h4 id="isPasted">Why choose linen?</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Read about the unique benefits of pure linen bedding <a href="https://cultivergoods.co.uk/pages/the-benefits-of-linen" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>here</u></a>.&#xA0;</span></p><h4 id="what-is-the-thread-count-of-linen">What is the thread count of linen?&#xA0;</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Linen weight and quality is not measured in thread count but rather by &#x201C;GSM&#x201D;, short for grams per square meter - literally the weight of the fabric. Our linen is woven at 165GSM which we believe is the optimum weight to achieve both a long lifespan and the immediate softness of your linen bedding (in times gone by, linen bedding was made from much heavier weight fabric, so it took years to achieve softness and the lightness we expect in bedding today).</span></p><h4 id="where-is-cultiver-linen-made">Where is CULTIVER linen made?&#xA0;</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">You can read about where our linen is made, as well as how we manufacture our textiles <a href="https://cultivergoods.co.uk/pages/where-our-linen-is-made" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>here</u></a>.&#xA0;</span></p><h4 id="are-your-products-certified">Are your products certified?&#xA0;</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">When sourcing new production partners, whether they are OEKO-TEX&#xAE; certified plays a substantial role. This certification means the manufacturer, and the products they produce, have been tested against a stringent global standard. This standard ensures there are no traces of over 100 substances commonly used during the production process which have been found to be harmful to human health. We&#x2019;re proud to say, all of our production partners are OEKO-TEX&#xAE; certified.</span></p><h4 id="how-can-i-soften-my-linen">How can I soften my linen?&#xA0;</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">It is completely natural that linen can feel a little more textured at the beginning of the lifecycle. However one of the many benefits of linen is that it continues to grow softer over time. The best way to soften your linen is through washing and use, as this allows the fibres to become more flexible. We recommend a warm machine wash on a regular cycle, followed by a warm tumble dry or line dry. When washing and drying your linen, it is important to ensure you are not overfilling the machine. This will allow the linen to move freely throughout the cycle in order for the fibres to soften.</span></p><h4 id="why-is-my-linen-shedding">Why is my linen shedding?&#xA0;</h4><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">It is completely normal that 100% linen will shed at the beginning of its lifecycle, this is part of the natural softening process of the linen. Linen is a natural fibre that becomes softer and softer with each wash and use, the shedding of excess fibres is how this softness is achieved. Once the linen has been through a couple of wash cycles following our care instructions, the shedding will begin to subside. It is important to ensure you are not using any fabric softeners in your wash, as these can exacerbate the shedding process.</span></p>
