Proper sorting of laundry by colour is important for maintaining the brightness of colours and preventing them from bleeding. How can you wash different colours together?
Basic Categories of Colours:
- White and light colours: Wash white and light-coloured laundry, such as pastel shades, together. Avoid adding dark or vividly coloured items that could cause staining.
- Dark colours: Wash black, dark blue, dark green, and dark grey clothing together. These colours tend to bleed, so it’s better to wash them separately from light and white colours.
- Coloured clothing: Wash bright colours, such as red, orange, yellow, blue, and green, together. Avoid washing these colours with white and light items to prevent staining.
Washing Tips By Colour:
- Always check the clothing labels for washing recommendations and colourfastness before washing. Some laundry items, such as bed linens or textiles in vibrant colours, often have warnings on the label about what they can be washed with or whether they need to be washed inside out or not.
- Wash new coloured items separately the first time to see if they bleed.
- Use colour-catching sheets, which can help prevent staining other laundry items while keeping colours vibrant.
