Caring For Your Organature Quilt
Any quilt which is made with 100% natural fibres is normally not washable; the fabric would have been preshrunk; the filling would not have been preshrunk . Should you ever see a washable natural fibre filled quilt, it is likely to contain a certain quantity of polyester, or silicone has been applied, without disclosure on the label. Washing should not be necessary if you use a quilt cover, shake and air regularly. Spot cleaning and airing is recommended.
* Emergency only: Our quilts have been washed by some clients using a large tub and squeezing, however this is not the recommendation by Organature.
- Do not agitate.
- May be spun in machine by layering against drum.
- May be tumble dried on low setting (below 30C), tumble for 10 minutes, take out, open up and back in tumble dryer for 10 minutes.
- Repeat until completely dry.
- We do not recommend washing
Can I wash my Organature Organic Cotton Quilt or Pillow?
We do not recommend washing.
Quilts and pillows made with 100% cotton are prone to clump and shrink if they are washed. (Conventional cotton quilts that can be washed will have a portion of polyester and/or chemicals added to make them washable). Any soiling should be removed only with a damp cloth, and bi-carb soda should be used to soak up moisture. Re-apply the bi-carb soda as necessary until the area is mostly dry, and then complete the drying process using a hair dryer, on low setting, not too close to the item and on both sides. Ensure the quilt is fully dried as moisture may allow mould to develop. Hang out to air in sunshine where possible to aid with airing. If very badly soiled you could wash it gently in cold water by squeezing the affected area, (do not use washing machine action), absorb excess wetting with towels as much as possible and hang on line. May also be put in tumble dryer on low setting, tumble for 5-10 minutes, take out, fluff out and repeat until dry.
Like ALL cotton products, organic cotton will shrink if washed or tumble dried in temperatures above 40c. We do not recommend washing.
The Natural Fragrance of Organic Cotton
The GOTS Certified Organic Cotton we use in our products may retain some of the natural, earthy fragrance from it's state on the plant. We do not use any of the toxic chemicals used to cover up these natural smells. This natural fragrance will dissipate over time, and fresh airing and sunshine will also help.
A message from our CEO
After a period of diminishing supplies we are happy to release our new version of delightfully cosy, lightweight and superior quality Certified Organic Cotton Quilts. Our quilts are now produced on our behalf and exclusively for Organature, by our associates in India under full GOTS organic certification.
Originally our quilts were made under our control by a company in Melbourne. These were made using certified organic cotton fabric and filling and produced locally and while we would have chosen to continue to have the quilts made in Australia, the manufacturer was no longer able to continue to produce them for us.
There are several other quilt manufacturers in Australia producing non-organic quilts on their machines, but finding a company able and agreeable to the processing of our Certified Organic Cotton for our quilts with the mandatory cleaning of machines to avoid cross contamination, proved impossible.
However, while we are no longer able to supply Australian made we are sure you will be delighted with the exceptional quality of the new super snuggly, lightweight and cosy quilts with the added benefit of the price, which is a little more economical for you.
Sleep well.
Kind regards,
Peter | CEO Organature
