Small things can make a big difference! Most of the energy consumption and CO2 footprint of the laundry cycle occurs during the wash cycle due to the energy needed to heat the water in the machine.
Small adjustments in your wash settings and the way you load your machine can make a contribution to help reduce your carbon footprint.

We use a special stain machine to dirty garments with common substances such as cocoa, makeup, lipstick, red wine or engine oil. These even, almost identical stains provide the ideal conditions for comparative wash tests, which are carried out using hundreds of washing machines made by different manufacturers. This procedure allows us to achieve our goal: to help keep your clothes looking newer for longer.
