CARING

Caring for our clothes, is caring for ourselves and our planet

 

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR SWIMWEAR

Our swimwear loves to be turned inside out for a wash on 40ªc (or lower) 

Do not let the swimwear left damp. Hang it or lay it flat until its dry. 

 

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR RESORTWEAR

Our resortwear pieces love to be hand wash in cold water. Dry in shade. Do not tumble dry. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean. Avoid rough surfaces.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR KNITWEAR PIECES

Avoid rough surfaces or sharp objects that could damage your knit piece. Wear your jewelry after putting on your dress. 

Handwash, turn your garment inside out, and gently soak it in cold water for 5-10 minutes, then rinse. 

La your knitwear flat to dry. Avoid using high heat or hanging it up, this can affect both the fabric and shape of the garment. Store your knits by folding them, hanging them can cause distortion in both shape and fit. 

Step into your strapless dress and avoid putting it on over your head. These care instructions will help maintain the perfection of your knitwear, ensuring your BAOBAB pieces will last forever.

MATERIALS

Beachwear requires very resistant materials that can be in contact with water, sun, chlorine, salt, and sand; that are fresh and stretch. These materials are currently synthetic. Our swimwear and resortwear pieces have mixtures in different proportions of rayon, elastane, polyester, and spandex.
We believe that the future of swimwear lies in biomaterials, and the potential of our country to be pioneers in the field. That's why we donate a percentage of our profits to fund research projects.

 

FINAL DISPOSITION

 

Second Chance

When you no longer want your BAOBAB piece, try to find someone who wants it & can use it. You can also use your creativity to create a new garment. If you had an accident and your garment got stained or burned, bring it to the BAOBAB FOUNDATION Workshop to reform it.

 

Silica Bags

For exportations we are asked to use Silica Bags, but this plastic material is normally discarded in the first use. You can help us to avoid purchasing more Silica Bags, by bringing those that come out of your international orders or medicine bottles. 

 

Shipping Bags

National shipping bags are biodegradable, they can be dissolved in hot water or in a common compost bin. For International shipping, bags are required to be plastic. As every country has different recycling policies, please find out what is the way to manage plastic in your country. 

 

Coco Bag + Wrapping Paper

Use it and reuse it. Take it to the beach or to a party. When you don't want it anymore, you can compose it completely, along with the wrapping paper that comes inside.
