How to care

Care Instructions

Avoid:

  1. Contact with sunscreen, oils, and harsh chemicals like chlorine. Public pools often use high chlorine levels, so limit exposure and rinse your suit after use.
  2. Hot tubs, as hot water can damage delicate fibres.

Washing:

  1. Hand wash or rinse with cold water immediately after use, even if you didn’t go in the water. This helps remove sunscreens, sweat, and natural oils, preventing fading and yellowing.
  2. For ECONYL® clothing, use a cold washing machine setting (30°C). To reduce environmental impact, use a wash bag or filter to catch microplastics, or hand wash for the best care.
  3. Avoid strong detergents and ensure the washing speed does not exceed 600 RPM.

Drying:

  1. Do not store while wet.
  2. Avoid wringing or stretching the suit. Gently press water out by wrapping the suit in a towel.
  3. Lay flat to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight.
  4. Do not tumble dry.

Ironing: Ironing is unnecessary for Econyl® clothing. The material is naturally flexible and often blended with elastane or spandex for added elasticity.
