Product Care - All-purpose Tote

All-purpose reusable bag hanging from wooden pole.

 

This bag is made with an unprocessed undyed canvas, so it will shrink on the first wash. You will also experience some softening of the material. These effects were accounted for when the bag was designed.

Please wash it following the steps below:

  1. Empty the bag removing all contents and bits of debris that may accumulate in it over time.

  2. There is no need to turn it inside out.

  3. Machine wash following the settings and instructions below:

    • Cold water: helps to reduce shrinkage and is more gentle on the environment.

    • Delicate cycle.

    • Conventional laundry detergent can be used, but a neutral and natural laundry detergent will be more gentle on the textile fibers.

    • Do not add:

      • Bleach;

      • Fabric softener;

      • Stain removers.

  1. Hang to dry: Allow the bag to dry in a well-ventilated area free from direct sunlight.

    • Spread bag open in order to allow for air to flow in.

    • Hang it by its handles using hooks or clips/pegs. Do not tie a knot with the handles.

    • Allow it to dry thoroughly, as semi-dry conditions may cause mold.

  2. Optional: iron to reduce wrinkles.

    • Set your iron on medium heat. Ironing on high heat may cause canvas surface to slightly burn and darken.

    • Use steaming function, if available.

    • Iron placing the iron on the inside of the bag, pressing the outside of the fabric against the ironing board.
