Care Guide

Remo’s pieces are meant to be enjoyed and kept for a lifetime. Here is how to take the best care of your new piece. 

Storing

Clean quilted cotton and linen pieces can ​simply be folded. Store wool pieces clean in a dry place. Put lavender drops on cotton balls and nestle them into the wool to repel moths.

Return & Recycle

If you no longer want your piece, you can return it to us. We will recycle the materials separately or reuse the textiles into new pieces. We take care of the shipping fees and you will get a 10% discount on your next purchase.

Quilted Cotton

remo quilted cotton is made from natural fibers only and is manufactured in St-Gall (CH). The organic cotton is GOTS certified (Global Organic Textile Standard – CU 848443) and comes from Germany. Lavalan® wool insulation is made of European sourced virgin wool and a corn based synthetic fiber called polylactic acid (PLA). It is renewable, recyclable and biodegradable.

  • Wipe off spills immediately
  • Let air-dry if moist or wet 
  • Hand wash or bring to laundry service (preferably ecological)
  • No tumble dry

    Felted Wool

    remo wool comes from local Swiss spinning mills. Felt is made by hand in the studio mixing dyed and undyed carded wool.

    remo believes in using what is around, local or underused resources. Wool has amazing properties. It is natural, sustainable and long-lasting, breathable, windbreaker, it protects from cold, insulates heat and naturally repels dirt and water. By nature, wool is stain-, odor- and wrinkle-resistant and requires little maintenance.

    • Wipe off spills immediately
    • Let air-dry if moist or wet
    • Give your piece some fresh air now and then, hanging it outside
    • Hand wash if needed
    • Clean your piece under the shower using a soft brush with shampoo or wool detergent
    • Rinse off, place it on a towel and leave it to dry
    • Steam iron at low temperature to smooth the surface of the felt
    • Use a razor to get rid of any pilling

    Cleaning in the washing machine is not recommended because the product might shrink and deform and the natural fat content (lanolin) would be affected.

    Dry-cleaning is not recommended because it traditionally uses toxic solvent. A natural alternative is to spot clean the stain with club soda before washing it or steam it. 

    Linen

    remo linen is organic and comes from Europe. Easy to wash and take care of.

    • Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle (20°C-30°C) using a natural detergent
    • Avoid using softener and bleachers
    • Wash light and dark colors separately 
    • No tumble dry
