Can I use Sensitive Laundry Liquid for sportswear and synthetic fabrics?Updated a day ago

TL;DR: Yes. Sensitive Laundry Liquid is suitable for sportswear and synthetic fabrics like polyester, nylon, and elastane. Enzymes like protease and lipase break down sweat, body oils, and odours without harsh chemicals.

How to wash sportswear

Washing steps

1

Pretreat stains with Stain Remover if needed (machine washable garments only).

2

Turn garments inside out.

3

Wash on your normal machine cycle. Cold or warm water is fine.

4

Hang dry when possible to help fabrics last longer.

Tips for synthetics

Do not overload the machine. Activewear needs water flow to rinse properly. Avoid overdosing detergent as too much product can trap residue in synthetic fibres. If odours persist, run an extra rinse cycle.

Stubborn odours

Pre-soak before washing using a small amount of Sensitive Laundry Liquid in a bucket of water. For extra stain help, treat targeted marks before washing with Stain Remover.
