Textile guard What used to require a trip to the dry cleaners can now be done quickly and easily at home. Working with Nikwax, this programme applies a re-proofing treatment to breathable fabrics, prolonging the life of high-quality functional clothing like winter jackets and ski suits. Washing clothes shouldn't be a chore. That's why we offer you a carefully designed range of specialist programmes and options to choose from. Wool handwashRemoving the need for hand washing your favourite woollen items, the programme uses a gentle cradle motion that treats delicate wool and cashmere with the utmost care throughout the wash and rinse cycles, and a special spin-drying process that protects your woollens from felting. Rapid 15, the world's first 15-minute wash cycleIf you have a family, you want to spend time with them - not their dirty laundry. Introducing the world beating Rapid 15 programme. It washes, rinses and spins your lightly soiled clothes in an unbelievable 15 minutes - ideal for families, who tend to produce larger amounts of laundry, or for athletes, who have to wash their sports clothes frequently even when they're not very dirty. Or in fact for anyone who doesn't relish waiting around long for their laundry... With so many different textiles, colours and designs available in the world of fashion, having programmes tailored perfectly to your varying wash loads has never been so important. The new range of wash programmes really does put you in control at the touch of a button. Shirts/Blouses For work or for school, many of us wear shirts on a daily basis. This dedicated programme is designed to wash 7 shirts at a time. It has been specifically created to wash with care, and uses less wash agitation and lower spin speeds to ensure that creasing is kept to a minimum, and so ironing is easier.
