WASHING & CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pre-wash before first use with like colours to avoid colour run. After use hand-rinse pads in cold to warm water under the tap until the water is clear. Gently squeeze out excess water and dry-pail at the end of each day.

2. Main Cycle Every 2-3 days maximum on Heavy / Long cottons cycle at 40-60 degrees MAX.   Use the full amount of detergent for your load size.  Adding a pre-wash to this cycle is recommended.  Do NOT soak in napisan, bleach or detergents or user softeners as this may damage the fabrics. Do not iron.

3. Drying: Smooth from the machine and lay flat to keep shape. Line dry outdoors is recommended.  Face the organic cotton side towards sunshine or indoors on drying rack. Ensure pads are completely dry before storing away to avoid mould forming.  Allow 24-48 hours or longer in winter months. Minor shrinking of natural organic fibres is normal.

We recommend 3-6 cloth menstrual pads per day in a range of sizes to suit your period cycle length and flow.
