At Tulua, we take pride in crafting garments that are both stylish and sustainable. Proper care ensures your clothing stays beautiful for years to come and helps reduce your environmental footprint. Follow these simple care instructions tailored to our fabric types, and learn why these practices matter.

For Woven Fabric Items

Wash Care:

• "Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. "
• "Do not bleach."
• "Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat."
• "Or, opt for dry cleaning."

Why This Matters: Woven fabrics are durable but can lose their structure or vibrancy if exposed to harsh washing methods or high heat. Washing in cold water reduces energy use, which is better for the environment, while a gentle cycle prevents unnecessary wear on the fibers. Hanging clothes to dry or using low-heat tumble drying minimizes shrinkage and extends the life of the garment. These practices not only preserve your clothing but also reduce energy consumption, supporting a more sustainable planet.

For Knit Fabric Items

Wash Care:

• "Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. "
• "Do not bleach."
• "Hang dry."
• "Do not dry clean."

Why This Matters: Knit fabrics are soft and stretchy but require gentle care to maintain their elasticity and softness. Cold washing minimizes fiber breakdown and prevents color fading, while a gentle cycle reduces agitation that can cause pilling. Hanging to dry keeps the fabric’s natural stretch intact, and avoiding dry cleaning eliminates the use of harsh chemicals that can harm both the fabric and the environment. By choosing these care methods, you’re ensuring that your knit garments remain comfortable and sustainable.

• Spot Clean When Possible: Reducing the frequency of full washes preserves fabric and saves water.
• Use Eco-Friendly Detergents: These are gentler on your garments and reduce harmful chemicals released into waterways.
• Wash Full Loads: This maximizes energy efficiency and minimizes water waste.
• Store with Care: Avoid overcrowding in your wardrobe to let fabrics breathe and prevent creasing or stretching.

By following these instructions, you’re not only maintaining the quality and longevity of your Tulua pieces but also contributing to a healthier planet. Together, we can enjoy fashion that’s both timeless and eco-friendly.
