Care
Keep all your Parachute items looking their best with these general care tips. Avoid products containing benzoyl peroxide, alpha hydroxy acids and chlorine bleach, which can be found in skincare, acne treatments, hair products, cosmetics, toothpaste and household cleaners. For stain removal, use OxiClean instead of bleach. Avoid fabric softeners, dryer sheets and harsh detergents. Wash items with similar colors and fabrics, and keep them separate from clothing to prevent abrasion from zippers, hooks and other hardware.
Bedding
Sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers, quilts and coverlets:
Machine wash cool using mild, liquid laundry detergent. Do not bleach. Iron on low heat if desired. Tumble dry low. We recommend using Wool Dryer Balls instead of dryer sheets. Remove promptly. Learn more on how to properly care for your bedding.

Eco Mattress
A few suggestions for making your mattress last:
The quilted cotton top is for sleeping on, so you should never flip the mattress over to sleep on the underside. For even wearing throughout its lifetime, you should rotate your mattress every six months. We recommend protecting your mattress with a mattress pad. If a stain occurs, spot clean as needed with warm water and mild detergent.
