Chestnut and Marshmallow 2-in-1 Laundry Granules

As a company one of our proudest achievements has been to create our chestnut and marshmallow 2-in-1 laundry product. We started with Chestnuts gathered by smallholders and agricultural labourers from the Waveney Valley the river border between Norfolk and Suffolk. After two years trying to find a practical milling process, we finally hit upon a solution and were able to make our finished product. 

The main part of the laundry product are the wild gathered chestnuts which are a natural and biodegradable 'tree-based' detergent. We have combined this with marshmallow root, because the mucilageous gel in the marshmallow, also helps to lift dirt away from fabrics to give the 2-in-1, dual cleaning power. Most of all, the marshmallow imparts a wonderful softness to the textiles and a light natural marshmallow fragrance.

How to use Chestnut and Marshmallow 2-in-1

The granules can be used in a washing machine, but they will always need containing in a sock. A normal drawstring bag isn't suitable. We use an odd long sock to contain the granules.

How to get the granules in the sock

Put your hand on the foot of the sock.
Grab 2 tablespoons of Chestnut and Marshmallow 2-in-1
Pull the knee end of the sock away from you and hey presto, the granules will be safely contained in the toe of the sock.
Now double knot the knee of the sock.

How to Use the Chestnut and Marshmallow 2-in-1

Placed the knotted sock in the base of the washing machine drum.
Add the clothing.
Add your laundry whitener if you are using it (see next section)
Select your normal wash program.

The 'wash sock' can be used for multiple wash loads. Either use the wash sock contiguously, or hang the sock to dry with the laundry ready for next time.

 

How Can You Tell When the Wash Sock is Exhausted?

After each wash, smell the sock. If it still has a chestnut-marshmallow aroma, it can be reused. If the wash sock is dried with the laundry, you can still assess it in the dry state. If it still has a marshmallow aroma when dry, it still has more washing and conditioning power. Carry on using it. I tend to get four washes per 2 tablespoon dose.

Blue Indigo as Laundry Whitener / Optical Brightener

For the ultimate clothes wash, use our natural blue indigo as a bluing agent, to make the whites look whiter and the dark colours darker. Using indigo leaves an anti-microbial film on clothing and bedding, helping clothing and bedding to stay fresher for longer.

Our indigo is made from the leaves of the indigo plant. By fermenting it using traditional processes on goat and camel urine, it gives a chemical free, pure, odourless blue powder which is safe for continuous dermal contact.

How to Prepare the Blue Indigo Laundry Whitener

Add 5g of blue indigo to 5 litres of water - an old vinegar container is idea. You can also work on a smaller scale, with 1g of blue indigo to 1 litre of water. The indigo keeps well and you do not need to add preservatives. Put the lid on the container and shale well.

Indigo doesn't actually dissolve in water, so you will need to remember to shake your indigo canister before each use so that the indigo is distributed in the solution.

How to Use The Blue Indigo Laundry Whitener

Remember, the Chestnut 2-in-1 already contains marshmallow root as a conditioning agent, and so the conditioner tray in the washing machine will be empty ... Add the indigo solution to the conditioner tray of your washing machine (often the middle compartment). Start by adding enough to reach the fill marker - about 100ml and adjust from there. 

Large beech Wood Pegs

Produced in Germany from FSC certified beechwood, our pegs are slightly larger than most wooden pegs with heavy duty galvanised steel springs. 

Their strong springs, help to secure heavy and tick items such as thick socks, towels and sheets, even in windy conditions.

To keep the pegs looking their best, please don't leave them out in the rain.

Why Switch to Plant Based Laundry Products?

Most conventional laundry products and fabric conditioners contain a cocktail of chemicals which cause untold environmental harm especially to our rivers. Often containing ingredients made from petro-chemicals, bleaches, dyes, forever-chemicals such as stilbenes (which don't break down and cause harm to all types of living organisms). Conventional detergents are high in phosphates and they cause algal blooms on rivers, suffocating the life within. 

When people use these chemical detergents in their homes, they create a toxic atmosphere of poisonous neurotoxin fragrances. These can have immediate health effects with respiratory problems such as asthma and allergies and over time contribute to chronic disease. 

Conventional detergents and conditioners, leave a residue of volatile chemicals on the clothing. Most of us are in contact with clothing and bedding almost every hour of the day and these chemicals are entering our skin and circulation. Now more people have developed skin issues such as eczema, dermatitis, dry skin conditions etc, and it is far safer to use simple natural products.

What really sets off my alarm bells is that the manufacturers of artificial detergents and fabric conditioners don't tell you what ingredients they use. I am sure they wouldn't want you to google the ingredients and found out just how dangerous and polluting they are. 

I have more issues with the chemical detergent industry which produce so much plastic waste. Let us stop giving these polluters our support!

Summary

So you will see, the three laundry products in our natural laundry kit, are all plant based from sustainable sources. Used together, every wash day can be a celebration of the wonders of nature and we can know that the products are as safe to the natural environment as they are to ourselves.

helped treat my sore neck
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Camping Pillow(Pack of 1)
This pillow — after dialing in the right amount of shredded foam — has greatly helped my sore neck. Initially, I had to remove some foam. Then I gradually added foam until it reached optimum comfort and support. It is also CPAP-friendly — especially when I position my head near the pillow's edge. (I am a left-side sleeper.) I like the travel size because I use a bulky hugging pillow to ease stress on my shoulder and elbow. That makes my side of the bed feel cramped if using a larger head pillow. A smaller pillow is easy to flip end-to-end in the middle of the night. I have spent lots of money on pillows over the years, but this is the best I've ever had for relieving [1] neck pain and [2] CPAP mask seal problems. Very comfortable, supportive, and affordable. I did not notice any unpleasant smell — and I am usually sensitive to that kind of thing. Would highly recommend.

Love them!
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
Love them! After 10 years with our MyPillows, they finally lost their fluff. The reviews I read of the MyPillows of today were not good; they didn’t have as much filling as they used to. These pillows remind me of how fluffy our new MyPillows were 10 years ago!! You sink right into them and can mush them however and they stay. These are way cheaper than the Coop and it’s the same concept; add or remove the filling as needed. The cooling side is a huge plus too! You won’t be disappointed with these pillows!

super smooth, silky, stays comfortable feeling. DO NOT DRY or wash with heat
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft, Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
I'm impressed. I have used cooling pillow cases before, and found them effective, but the cooling material have always been on just one side. These are 100% cooling material. The material is super smooth and silky feeling. It is great feeling against hair and skin (even better than my old polyester satin I was using before cooling pillowcases). The material is cool, and does not seem to get hot hot. The pillow cases are super stretchy with a small hidden zipper. They grab onto the pillow and dont loosen up. Makes my pillow look neat and clean, not sloppy from loose material. I can even have two pillows stacked and somehow despite being a smooth material, the pillows dont just slide off each other. The cooling aspect works by not trapping heat, not allowing heat to get to the pillow and hold it there. So yeh, the pillow case will feel warm eventually but if you have a fan, or AC, or flip the pillow, then it is is truly cool. Otherwise in my experience when I use a pillow without this, the pillow just gets hot, stays hot, and even with flipping it feels hot.. because the pillow itself has trapped the heat for remainder of night. Yuck. One thing to know and this is very important-- as I learned the hard way-- DO NOT DRY IN DRYER. DO NOT WASH IN HOT WATER. Heat will destroy the material ability to feel and stay cool. Do you want a regular heat trapping pillow case? Then go ahead and dry these in the dryer a few times and you will have a regular pillow case. HOw do I know? I bought these to replace another set (different brand, same idea, same instructions that I failed to remember). I always dried them in the dryer, and one night after having gloriously cool pillows, I noticed that my pillow was HOT night after night. It was then when looking for another set of pillow cases that I learned that they cant be exposed to heat like that. SO PLEASE, just AIR DRY. And so, after I got these and put them on my pillows, I had a much better nights rest. I remember thinking that I wasnt waking to rearrange my pillows. They were just comfortable all night long. Sure, I'd love an even colder pillow, but our room is on the warm side. But at least I wasnt noting the hot hot pillows anymore.
