Different Clothes Require Different Detergents: How to Choose?

Different clothes require different care, and there isn’t a single detergent suitable for all fabrics. At a minimum, you should have three: a detergent for white fabrics, one for colored fabrics, and a detergent or shampoo for knitwear care.

But if you’re a true clothing enthusiast, we have more for you.

Steamery Dark & Denim detergent is specifically designed for black clothes and denim: it prevents fading and helps preserve rich colors. Denim should be washed as infrequently as possible unless it’s visibly dirty—airing or steaming is usually enough. Always wash jeans inside out, and you can place them in a laundry bag. Use a detergent that protects colors and avoid fabric softener. If your jeans feel stiff after drying, use a steamer to soften them.

Sportswear is usually made from synthetic technical fabrics. To avoid damaging the material, it’s recommended to wash such garments at the lowest possible temperature. Steamery Odor Control detergent is effective even at low temperatures, helping eliminate odors while preserving the fabric.

If a garment isn’t stained or visibly dirty, it doesn’t need to be washed after every wear. Refresh your clothes by airing them outside, steaming them, or using a clothing spray mist.
