Care with our cashmere detergent - it's that simple 🫧
Whether you wash your cashmere items in the machine or by hand - PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care Shampoo adapts to your everyday life and ensures an uncomplicated care experience. The application is clearly structured and easy to understand.
Preparation of cashmere clothing 🧺
Separate your cashmere garments from other textiles. An orderly wash ensures that the fibers have enough space to move freely. This avoids unnecessary friction and maintains the flawless appearance of your favorite pieces.
Machine wash with the cashmere detergent
The following applies to anyone who wants to wash their cashmere items in the washing machine:
-
Choose the right program: set your washing machine to the wool or delicate wash program. Make sure that the temperature does not exceed 30 °C and that the spin speed is set to a maximum of 400 revolutions per minute.
-
Dosage: Use 2 capfuls of PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care Shampoo for the main wash in the wool wash cycle. This dosage is ideal for approx. 12 washes and guarantees balanced care.
-
Protective measures: Place coarsely knitted items in a laundry bag for additional protection and to prevent snagging on other items of clothing.
-
Machine washing with Cashmere Care Shampoo cleans thoroughly and at the same time restores the natural fiber protection substances - so every item remains as good as new even after many washes.
Hand wash
For an even gentler treatment, hand washing is recommended, especially for particularly valuable or old cashmere pieces or if a reliable washing machine is not available:
-
Water temperature: use lukewarm water (max. 30 °C) in a wash basin or suitable bowl.
-
Soaking time: Place cashmere pieces in the water for approx. 10 to 15 minutes. This soaking time allows the Cashmere Care Shampoo to gently penetrate the fibers of the material without affecting the natural shine.
-
Dosage: Add 1 capful (10 ml) to 5 liters of water - this amount is sufficient for approx. 24 hand washes.
-
Massage in gently: Gently massage the Cashmere Care Shampoo into the fibers. Avoid rubbing vigorously so that the fibers can develop optimally.
-
Rinse: Rinse the garments thoroughly with lukewarm water without wringing them out. Instead, squeeze gently between your hands to remove excess water.
Even when hand washed with PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care, your cashmere will retain its natural softness and radiant shine.
Stain treatment with the cashmere detergent
If a small stain does appear, you can proceed as follows:
-
Proceed in a targeted manner: Dab a few drops of Cashmere Care Shampoo onto the stain and leave to work for approx. 10 minutes.
-
Clean gently: Then treat the affected area as usual - even stubborn stains can be effectively removed without the fibers losing their shine.
After washing, lay your cashmere pieces flat on a towel and carefully pull them into shape - this will prevent them from wearing out and the cashmere pieces will retain their size. Leave them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or radiators.
What is special about PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care? 🧼
Our detergent is based on natural raw materials and is optimally tailored to the needs of fine natural fibers. Here are some of its outstanding properties:
-
Care and cleaning in one: the formula contains refatting components that ensure that the cashmere fiber's natural lanolin film is constantly regenerated.
-
Effective but gentle cleansing: With 15-30% anionic surfactants made from renewable raw materials, the product removes dirt and impurities without attacking the fibers.
-
Sustainable formula: Thanks to biodegradable ingredients (readily biodegradable according to the OECD Screening Test), you are not only protecting your clothes, but also the environment.
-
Versatility: Although Cashmere Care was primarily developed for cashmere, it is also ideal for other fine fibers such as angora, mohair, alpaca and even down - see below for details.
PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care Shampoo compared to conventional detergents 🫧
Many conventional detergents unintentionally remove the natural lanolin film from the fibers, which can lead to a loss of the typical softness and shine in the long term. In contrast, our product offers numerous advantages:
-
Replenishing effect: Cashmere Care replenishes the natural lanolin content so that cashmere items retain their luxurious texture even after repeated washing.
-
Gentle cleaning: Mild surfactants made from renewable raw materials clean thoroughly without attacking the fibers - ideal for lasting care.
-
Environmentally friendly formula: Thanks to biodegradable ingredients, you not only support the longevity of your clothes, but also an environmentally conscious lifestyle.
More than just cashmere: how to care for angora, mohair, alpaca & down 🤍🫧
PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care is not only a real pampering program for cashmere, but also a blessing for many other precious natural fibres. Its mild, moisturizing formula strengthens the natural oil film and preserves the radiant beauty of your favourite pieces.
Angora and mohair
Angora and mohair fascinate with their fluffy structure and high cuddle factor. Cashmere Care keeps these fibers soft and well-groomed because the cashmere detergent preserves their natural greasy film and gives them new freshness.
Alpaca
Alpaca scores points for its excellent thermal insulation and characteristic softness. Our Cashmere Care supports precisely these strengths by replenishing the fibers and keeping them permanently supple.
Down
Even sensitive down comforters or jackets feel completely comfortable with PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care. The gentle formula protects the fine down feathers and ensures long-lasting fluffiness and shape retention.
The versatility of Cashmere Care Shampoo makes it an indispensable care product for anyone who uses high-quality natural fibers - whether cashmere, angora, mohair, alpaca or down.
PAPA LOBSTER Cashmere Care Shampoo makes washing at home much easier - uncomplicated, sustainable and effective. The targeted recycling of natural lanolin and gentle cleaning results in cashmere pieces that not only remain soft and supple, but also shine in rich, vibrant colors. As a result, the material is treated with care so that it remains gentle on the skin - and each cashmere piece retains its well-groomed quality for a long time, offering you and your family sustainable care and noticeable comfort every day.
