Coming to an environment-friendly clothing

Most people say they “just know” when a fabric needs to be washed, but what they may not know is that the average wash load contains 20 times more body oils and sweat than visible stains. These hidden soils can get trapped deep in the fabric of clothes and build up over time. Scientists have proved that cleaning dirty clothes is physically possible but that cloth should contain some more features to be environment friendly.

Researchers in Norway led a new scientific study to find how people wash their clothes depending on the materials of clothes. Resources needed for launderings – such as water, energy, and related greenhouse gas emissions have impacts on clothes.
