BioCare Sport Textile Wash
BioCare Sport Textile Wash: Gentle detergent for functional clothing
BioCare Sport Textile Wash is a mild, biodegradable detergent specially developed for use with functional clothing. It preserves the factory-applied durable water repellent (DWR) treatment longer and leaves no residue that could affect the breathability or water-repellent properties of the clothing. Once the DWR has washed away or worn off and water no longer beads up, re-impregnation with OrganoTex Wash-In or Spray-On is recommended. Proper care for your functional clothing will extend its lifespan.
Features

Wash-In Textile Waterproofing
Wash-In Textile Waterproofing is an impregnating agent that is easily added to garments in the washing machine. It improves the fabric's water- and dirt-repellent properties and extends the garment's life by protecting the fibers and restoring their water-repellent properties. It preserves the fabric's breathability, color, and feel because the impregnating agent bonds with the fibers without forming a film on the surface. Eco-certified with OEKO-TEX Eco Passport and USDA Certified Biobased Product.
When to re-impregnate?
When water droplets no longer bead off the outside of your raincoat or other functional outdoor clothing, it means the original water repellency has been washed away. This is the time to re-proof the clothing to restore its original technical properties.
Why re-impregnate?
After about 5 to 10 washes, depending on the quality of the waterproofing and the detergent used, a garment's water-repellent (DWR) coating can wear off. This also reduces the garment's breathability, making it feel heavy and cold, even when using membranes like Gore-Tex®. Regular washing and waterproofing improves the performance and extends the life of your clothing.

- Restores water and dirt repellent properties
- Maintains the breathability of the fabric
- Biobased, biodegradable, and PFAS-free
