Silk and wool garments require expert handling to preserve their softness, shape, and natural beauty. At Cosmos Laundry, we use specialized cleaning techniques suitable for delicate fabrics, ensuring effective stain removal without causing shrinkage, fading, or damage. From silk sarees and scarves to wool sweaters, coats, and shawls, every garment receives personalized attention throughout the cleaning process. Our professional fabric care helps extend the life of your cherished garments while keeping them fresh, clean, and beautifully maintained.
Because both fibers are delicate. Silk is a protein fiber that can water-spot and lose its sheen easily, and wool shrinks and felts the moment it meets hot water and friction. Home washing is the most common way these fabrics get ruined, which is why they should be cleaned using methods specifically designed for these fabrics.
Silk is cleaned gently and finished at low, controlled heat so the natural lustre stays. Harsh detergents and high heat strip the sheen and leave silk stiff, so those are exactly what we avoid. The aim is to return the garment as soft and bright as it went in.
Wool is kept away from the heat, agitation, and moisture combination that causes shrinking and matting. It's cleaned and dried in a controlled way and reshaped during finishing, so a sweater or coat keeps its original size and drape instead of coming back a size smaller.
Yes, and this takes care, because silk shows water marks so easily that a careless stain treatment creates a second problem. Stains on silk are treated in a controlled way that blends the treated area back into the surrounding fabric, so you don't trade a stain for a ring.
We can treat woolens for moth protection on request, which matters most before long storage. Moths are drawn to the natural fibres and to any food or sweat traces left in the cloth, so cleaning before storing is itself the first line of defence.
Only as needed, not on a fixed schedule. Both fibres last longer with fewer cleans, so clean them when they're soiled or stained and always before storing them for a season. Airing them out after each wear cuts down how often they need a full clean.
