Care of Silk Scarves

Care of silk scarves – Understanding silk – What makes the fabric so special?

Properties of silk:

• Shine: Unique, no other natural material has this shimmer.

• Softness: Pleasant on the skin, even with prolonged use.

• Lightness: Surprisingly robust despite thin fibers.

• Vibrancy of colours: Silk absorbs colours particularly intensely.

• Symbolism: A silk scarf or silk tie signals quality.

Why corporate clients choose silk:

• Image: A silk scarf with a logo stands out from standard promotional items.

• Sustainability: With proper care, the product remains usable for many years.

• Exclusivity: Corporate clients show that they invest in quality.

Silk is delicate, but with the right care, it remains usable for a long time – that is exactly what makes it interesting for companies.

Care of silk scarves 'Correctly'

Silk is both robust and delicate. Robust because it is a strong natural fibre. Delicate because improper care leaves immediate marks.

1. Washing

• Hand wash preferred: Lukewarm water, a drop of silk detergent, gently move.

• No wringing: Instead, lay the scarf on a towel and gently roll it.

• Machine wash: Only on the silk programme, cold wash, use a laundry bag.

2. Drying

• No sunlight: UV rays fade colours.

• No heating: Heat can damage fibres.

• Dry flat: Best laid out on a towel.

3. Ironing

• Low temperature: Set the iron to silk/wool.

• Iron slightly damp: Or place a thin cloth in between.

4. Storing

• Hanging or lying in the cupboard.

• Protected from light.

• Scented sachets or tissue paper prevent yellowing.

Avoid typical mistakes when caring for silk scarves.

Many damages to silk scarves occur due to ignorance. Corporate clients who distribute high-quality products should avoid these mistakes:

Detergent: No all-purpose detergent, no bleach, no fabric softener.

Heat: Tumble dryers, radiators, direct sunlight destroy silk.

Pressure: Do not crease or rub wet silk strongly.

Stains: Do not rub with water – better to take it for cleaning immediately.

A simple note with care instructions included in the package protects the promotional gift from quick wear.

Care for various products

Our company not only produces silk scarves. Ties, bandanas, scrunchies, and mitzvahs are also included. Each product requires its own care.

1. Scarves

• Large area, therefore prone to creasing.

• Always store folded or loosely rolled.

2. Ties

• Never in the washing machine.

• After wearing, loosen and hang up.

• Treat small stains locally.

3. Bandanas

• Often subjected to more stress.

• Wash regularly, but gently.

• Set colours with cold water.

4. Scrunchies

• Less delicate, as they are small.

• Clean briefly in lukewarm water.

• Maintain shape while drying.

5. Mitzahs (narrow silk cloths)

• Often used as an accessory on bags.

• Protect from perfume and hand cream.

• Gently roll instead of folding.

With these tips, all products retain their quality – even with frequent use.
