Quick wash, easy dry: The ultimate guide to efficient hemp fabric care and its surprising benefits!

Are you looking for bedding that not only offers comfort but also convenience, especially when you’re living life on the go, perhaps on a boat? Look no further than hemp fabric! In this post, we’ll explore the benefits of hemp fabric, particularly its porous fibers that facilitate quick washing and easy drying, making it the perfect choice for those with an actively moving lifestyle.

Benefits of hemp fabric:

1. Porous fibers: Hemp fabric is renowned for its porous fibers, which allow for excellent airflow. This feature not only contributes to the fabric’s breathability but also facilitates quick drying.
2. Air Circulation: Due to its porous nature, hemp fabric enables air circulation, helping to keep you comfortable, especially in a humid, colder or warmer climates.
3. Moisture Regulation: Another advantage of hemp fabric is its ability to regulate moisture. It can efficiently wick away moisture from your body, promoting a dry and comfortable sleeping environment.

The essentials of efficient hemp fabric care:

Hemp is considered a very strong fiber. However, it is worth understanding that carefully made items (from any natural fiber) require increased attention and care. When it comes to caring for your hemp fabric bedding, simplicity is key. Here’s a quick guide to maintaining your hemp fabric items:

1. Pre-soak: Hemp is wet-resistant but stiff fiber, which is why we recommend the new product to be wetted before washing, so that will prevent the spools on the fabric. Fill a small container with lukewarm water and submerge the hemp garment and let it soak for about 10 minutes.
2. Quick machine or hand wash: Hemp fabric is easy to clean, and a quick wash with 40-60°C is usually sufficient to keep it fresh. Choose mild, eco-friendly detergent and do not use bleach or fabric softener. They can coat the fibers and reduce breathability. Use a short spin and pull the seams straight after washing.
3. Air dry and iron when damp: Hang outside or in a well-ventilated area. If tumble drying, use a low heat setting and remove while slightly damp. The porous fibers will allow for quick evaporation, reducing drying time significantly.
4. Ironing and storing: Iron on a low heat setting while still slightly damp. Store in a dry place, ensuring linens are completely dry.

Hemp gets only better with the use!

1. Sun Exposure: Harness the power of the sun! If you’re living on a boat or don’t have access to a washing machine, simply place your hemp bedding in the sun to air out. Sun exposure not only helps eliminate odors but also naturally sanitizes the fabric.
2. Softens with Washing: One of the unique qualities of hemp fabric is that it becomes softer with each wash. Unlike other fabrics that may become stiff over time, hemp fabric retains its softness and comfort, making it even more enjoyable to use with every wash.
3. Minimal Ironing: Hemp fabric has a naturally relaxed look, so no ironing is required unless wanted. Embrace it’s natural wrinkles!

Does hemp shrink in the wash? Like many natural fibers, it can shrink if not washed properly. To prevent shrinkage, it is recommended to wash hemp textiles in cold water and avoid using high heat in the dryer. Line drying or tumble drying on a low setting can help maintain the fabric’s size and shape.
