How to Wash — Best Practices

Follow these simple steps to get the best results with GreenStar detergents while protecting your fabrics.

1. Sort your laundry

Separate whites, darks, and colors. Treat stains before washing and follow garment care labels.

2. Choose the right temperature

Cold water for colors and delicates; warm or hot for heavily soiled whites where the label allows.

3. Measure detergent correctly

Use the measuring cup or cap supplied and follow dosage recommendations on the GreenStar package. Using too much detergent can leave residue and reduce fabric life.

4. Select appropriate cycle

Use gentle cycles for delicates and stronger cycles for heavily soiled items. Avoid overloading the machine to allow proper agitation and rinsing.

5. Dry with care

Follow garment labels—air dry delicates, tumble dry on a low setting when recommended. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight for colored garments.
