When you hang up your clothes after washing them in the washing machine, you notice that they contain lint. This incident, which occurs frequently, can be avoided if measures are taken beforehand. We explain in our article how to eliminate this annoying inconvenience from the laundry.
Lint is small fabric fibers that separate from some washed clothes and stick to other fabrics. At the end of washing in the washing machine, the clothes do not really look clean. To get rid of this unpleasant phenomenon, it is necessary to adopt certain washing measures to benefit from healthy and clean clothes.
How to avoid lint on clothes?
Certain garments, such as pure wool or wool and cotton sweaters, when washed frequently can produce little balls. These come off during the washing program and stick to other clothes, especially synthetic ones.
To avoid this inconvenience, it is recommended to follow these basic rules
Wash soft fabric clothes separately, even hand washing is recommended for this type of delicate garments or dry cleaning at the dry cleaners. If machine washing is unavoidable, it is recommended in this case to use the wool program for delicate clothes. The same goes for sheets, pillowcases and covers, which are particularly fragile.
Avoid washing light clothes with dark clothes or with colored clothes.
Turn the garment inside out before washing.
Activate a washing program as recommended on the garment label.
Air dry fabrics that may produce lint instead of putting them in the dryer to avoid aggravating this inconvenience.
