A Few Reasons Why It’s Good to Wash Bedding Before First Use
When you open your new set of Vaulia Home Collection you’re probably eager to get it on the bed right away. While we can understand your desire to do so, we strongly recommend that you wash bedding before you use it for the first time.
Our bedding is quality checked and prepared to be stored while in transit to your home and washing will remove the necessary preservatives. Additionally, washing removes packaging fragrance, dirt, and germs, as well as adds your unique fragrance to your bedding.
Shipping Bedding
While we work in as clean an environment as possible, everything and anything tends to pick up some dirt and germs while in transit or being stored. Packaged bedding is often treated with a preservative too repel dirt and germs. It’s highly preferable to wash this preservative off your bedding before you put them on your bed.
Fragrance
Bedding will not only pick up the fragrance of the packaging materials used, but it may also pick up the fragrance of anyone who opens the package to feel how soft the material is. While some people may not be bothered by the fragrances, some people are, and some individuals may have allergic reactions to different types of fragrances. To ensure fragrance-free bedding, we recommend washing bedding before you use it.
Your Fragrance
People sleep better in their own beds than they do in beds that are foreign to them. When you wash bedding using your laundry detergent and fabric softener, you are putting your own fragrance (or fragrance free) stamp on you bedding, making it smell familiar. This, in turn, makes for a better night of sleep on your new Vaulia Home Collection bedding.
Washing bedding before its first use removes any impurities that it may have gathered during shipping and storage, as well as making it smell familiar to you. Freshly washed Vaulia Home Collection bedding equates to a night of sweet dreams.
