The material itself won’t be affected by the tumble dryer, but the labels indicating the middle and containing the mandatory information will be. For this reason, we don’t recommend tumble-drying your Baby Wrap. If you have put it through the dryer, however, you can always place a sheet of greaseproof paper over the Wrap and then iron the label back on. This method can be used over and over again.
Ironing the cloth at maximum temperature is fine. However, as we have just seen, heat will damage the label. We therefore recommend ironing over the label from the back. Ironing also helps make the fibres more flexible, thus helping to prepare the wrap for use. We therefore strongly recommend ironing your Baby Wrap before using it to carry your baby.
You can use a steam iron, in which case iron around the edges of the label.
If you add in humidity (which has the effect of a magnifying glass and increases the fading caused by UV light), you can be sure your Baby Wrap’s colours will fade with time. So you shouldn’t leave your Baby Wrap on the rear-window shelf of your car in the middle of summer when coming home from the beach, for example.
Just like other cotton objects coming out of the washing machine, our material will feel somewhat stiff after being washed. You’ll need to soften it a little to make it right for carrying your baby. All you need to do is to steam-iron it at maximum temperature. You can also turn the softening process into a game your kids will love: spread the Baby Wrap over a bed and get your bigger children to jump up and down on it. Or you can use your Wrap as a sofa covering for a few days.
Top quality – I’ve got a Baby Wrap and the fabric is fantastic – it’s strong, good value for money, an all-round super product.
We recently bought a Bearded Man Sling and it’s a great product: easy to use, reliable, comfortable – it’s got everything.
Thanks!
The phone contact with you was nice: we were given really useful advice by an enthusiastic counsellor who knew everything there is to know about the material and equipment.
High-quality organic material made in France and reasonably priced – something that’s getting hard to find!!!
I made a hammock nine years ago with material from Colimaçon. It’s still going strong and there are no complaints you can have about the quality!
It’s local; 100% organic; easy to work with; strong; and the people are great as well (enthusiastic and inspiring).
I’ve been using the Sling and the long Wrap for over six months now, and I’m fully satisfied! My order was sent quickly, the products are made in France, and the material is top quality.
You’re an amazing firm! Your solutions are adapted to our needs, even if you’re on the other side of the world! New Yorkers can have this stuff too! Thanks again!
