How do I take care of my bulk microfiber towels?

How do I take care of my bulk microfiber towels?

Microfiber towels from Bulk Linen Supply are not ordinary clothes; they are strong cleaning workhorses. They are different from cotton or nylon fabrics because they contain thousands of microscopic fibers.  

These small fibers make microfiber materials very successful in capturing and holding dirt, grime, and water without washing with water. Therefore, it is important towash and dry microfiber towels after each use. 

How well you take care of microfiber towels depends on the quality of the best microfiber towels. Just throw a microfiber towel in the washing machine, and you expect it to come out clean; that's not how it works. 

In this article, we will show you how towash microfiber cleaning cloths between uses to keep your hands clean.

Things to consider when cleaning microfiber fabrics

  • Avoid using fabric softeners, as this will clog the pores of the microfiber and make it unusable.
  • Be careful when cleaning other things with microfiber. All cotton items should be avoided due to the ability of microfibers to penetrate and stick to the skin.

  • If sizes must be mixed, choose a nonwoven synthetic material instead of cotton or wool.

  • As with all cleaning procedures, separate the white or light fiber from the dark microfiber before washing.

Hand wash for Bulk Linen Supply’s microfiber cloths

 Time required: 16 minutes

Shake well before washing:

Beforewashing microfiber towels, take them outside and remove any dust or dirt. This will prevent it from getting into your washing liquid.

Wash in warm water: 

Towels should be hand washed in warm water with detergents free of perfume and fabric softener. 

Whenwashing towels, use as little detergent as possible. Many people say that you should never use detergents.

Hand washing: 

Wash contaminated surfaces with your hands. It may take time, but you have to keep at it.

 Allow to soak: 

After hand washing, allow the fabric to soak for 15-20 minutes before stirring again. 

Washing machine clothes

Time required: 20 minutes

  • Remove excess dust and dirt.
  • As we said before about washing hands and dust and removing external waste.

  • Do not use hot water in the washing machine.
  • Use cold or warm water, but not hot. The electrical charge of the clothes is maintained, and all the dirt and grime can be washed away by using the cold water.

      1. Use less detergent: If you must use detergent, choose a mild, unscented laundry detergent.
  • Continue washing: 
  • Set the washing machine time for half a cycle, then soak it for 15-20 minutes, then again start the wash cycle and finish. 

    How to dry microfiber cloths properly: 

    • Simplywashing microfiber towels is not enough. Microfiber cloths should be dried properly to maintain their value and stay stain-free for a long time.

    • Microfiber fabrics dry out when exposed to direct sunlight or airflow.

    • Do not dry in the dryer; doing so will seriously compromise the performance of the microfiber. If you must dry your clothes in the machine, do it carefully. 

    If you want yourmicrofiber towels to come out of the dryer as good as when you washed them, follow these tips:

    • You can prevent the machine from accumulating too much fiber by spin drying. It is important to sort clothes before drying. 
    • Towels like100% Polyester Microfiber Makeup Remover Towels orMicrofiber Cleaning Cloth made from microfiber are individually washable. Select a low heat setting. 
    • Place in the dryer without paper towels and let dry. 
    • When dry, take it out immediately; never iron anything. If the fibers get too hot, they melt.

     Tips for maintaining microfiber cloths

    • To keep microfiber towels clean, shake them after each use to remove dust and dirt, then rinse them with water.

    • Store microfiber cleaning cloths in a designated container away from other cleaning towels and similar items. 

    •  Do not use detergents or microfiber cloths, and if necessary, use only mild detergents. 

    •  Clothes made of microfiber should never be ironed, as high heat will melt the fibers.
