Caring Instructions – Sustainable Clothing Care Tips by Ndáko
Keeping your clothes fresh doesn’t just protect your style — it protects the planet. At Ndáko, we believe sustainable fashion starts with proper care. Here's how to make your garments last longer, save energy, and reduce your environmental footprint.
♻️ Eco-Friendly Clothing Care Tips
-
Wash Less, Wear More
Only wash when necessary. Spot clean when you can — it reduces water usage and fabric stress.
-
Wash with Cold Water
Cold water keeps colors vibrant and saves energy. Plus, it’s gentler on your clothes.
-
Use Eco-Friendly Detergents
Choose biodegradable and phosphate-free detergents to keep things clean and green.
-
Air Dry Over Machine Drying
Dryers can shrink and weaken your clothing. Use a drying rack or clothesline when possible.
-
Full Loads Only (But Don’t Overload!)
Maximize your machine’s efficiency — run full loads, but leave enough space so your clothes get properly cleaned.
-
Spot Clean Small Stains
Dab, don’t drench. Spot cleaning keeps your clothes out of the wash cycle longer.
-
Store Clothes Properly
Use padded hangers for delicates, fold knits, and store in a dry, cool place to prevent mold and misshaping.
-
Repair Before Replacing
Fix small rips or loose buttons. It’s sustainable and gives your favorite pieces a second life.
-
Skip the Iron
Heat breaks down fabric. Try steaming or use the shower-steam trick to release wrinkles.
-
Use a Garment Bag for Delicates
Protect delicate items during machine washing by placing them in a mesh laundry bag.
-
Rotate Your Wardrobe
Switch it up. This keeps your clothing from wearing out too quickly and helps maintain shape.
🌍 Why It Matters
Proper garment care extends the life of your clothes, reduces waste, and helps combat fast fashion. Sustainability isn’t just in what you wear — it’s in how you care for it.
