Care and maintenance of white bedding
How to preserve its quality and extend its shelf life in the hospitality industry
In the hospitality industry, white linens not only project cleanliness and freshness, but also communicate quality standards. However, keeping them pristine requires constant attention and proper washing, drying, and storage practices.
Below, we share a technical and practical guide to properly care for white textiles and maintain their professional appearance for much longer.
1. Washing:
Avoid direct contact of textiles with detergents or concentrated chemicals.
Applying very aggressive products locally can cause partial damage to the fiber and generate stains or premature weakening.
✅ Tip: Always dissolve cleaning products before contact with the fabric.
2. Bleaching:
To preserve whiteness without compromising the textile's lifespan, it is recommended to use oxygen-based bleaches instead of chlorine-based bleaches.
Chlorine, although effective, tends to deteriorate fabrics over time, shortening their lifespan.
✅ Tip: Opt for hydrogen peroxides or formulas designed for delicate textiles.
3. Drying:
Drying should be carried out at a temperature below 60°C.
Once 80% dry has been reached, it's ideal to finish the process with cold air. This prevents the fibers from overheating and helps preserve their softness and shape.
✅ Tip: Don't overload dryers and avoid unnecessary long cycles.
4. Ironing:
The ideal ironing temperature should not exceed 150°C.
Excessive heat can weaken the fabric structure, create unwanted shine, or even cause minor burns on white textiles.
✅ Tip: Use temperature-controlled irons or steam irons.
5. Dry cleaning:
Dry cleaning white bedding is not recommended.
This method can leave chemical residues that alter the pH of the textile and affect its softness.
6. Storage:
Always store textiles in a dry and ventilated space.
Avoid damp, poorly ventilated areas or areas in direct contact with walls, as these can cause mold stains or unpleasant odors.
✅ Tip: Use cotton covers or breathable bags instead of sealed plastic ones.
7. Quality standards:
The professional products we distribute at World Target Supplies come with inspection certificates that guarantee a qualified level of quality, durability, and resistance to frequent use.
Investing in professional textiles is just the first step.
Proper maintenance is key to ensuring a consistently flawless guest experience and protecting your long-term investment.
