Care and maintenance
Daily care
Shake it.
Get into the habit of gently shaking your duvet every morning. This helps redistribute the wool filling and aerate it, preventing it from getting compressed. But don't worry, your Camel is made with sewn-in compartments that prevent the wool from getting compressed and bunched up in one place.
Daily care
Air it out.
Whenever possible, air your duvet outside on a dry, non-humid day, out of direct sunlight. Drape it over a clean clothesline or a few chairs for a few hours. This helps freshen the wool and remove any residual moisture or odors.
Cleaning
Stain cleaning
Try to clean small stains as soon as possible. Gently blot the stain with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain and damage the fabric. If necessary, use a mild wool detergent diluted in cold water. Apply a small amount to a cloth, blot the stain, then rinse the area with a clean, damp cloth. Afterwards, make sure the area is completely dry.
Cleaning
Professional cleaning
Professional cleaning is recommended. Due to the delicate nature of camel wool, it is generally recommended to have your duvet professionally cleaned by a reputable dry cleaner with experience in handling natural fibers. They will have the proper equipment and expertise to clean it safely and effectively.
Storage
Clean before storage
Before storing, make sure your duvet is completely clean and dry.
Storage
Airy storage
Store your duvet in a breathable protective bag to allow air circulation and prevent moisture build-up. Avoid plastic bags, as they can trap moisture and lead to mold. Your Camel comes with the ideal storage bag
Storage
Cold and dry place
Store the duvet in a cool, dry place with good ventilation, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Storage
Avoid compression.
Try to avoid compressing your duvet for long periods of time, as this can damage the wool fibers. If possible, store it flat or loosely folded.
