Washing and Care

Cleaning and care of Medical Sheepskin

The secret of cleaning sheepskin is to wash and dry at low temperatures.

1. Machine or hand wash at a maximum of 40°C with mild detergent as advised for a woollen garment.
2. If machine washing, spin dry.
3. If hand washing, drain naturally without hand wringing.
4. If machine drying, tumble dry at low temperature.
5. If drying on a line, preferably dry naturally away from sunlight.
6. After drying, comb out with a steel dog comb to restore the wool pile.
