How to Care for Your Split Peach Waterproof Blanket (and Make It Last Years)

You’ve invested in a premium bamboo waterproof blanket — now let’s make sure it lasts.

Unlike thick polyester blankets or cheap flannel pads that degrade quickly, the Split Peach Blanket is made from high-quality bamboo fibre and engineered for long-term use. But like all beautiful things, it deserves a little love.

Here’s how to wash it, dry it, store it, and keep it looking and performing like new — for years to come.

 1. 

Washing Your Split Peach Blanket

Yes — it’s completely machine washable.

No — you don’t need anything fancy.

Just follow these simple tips:

 Do:

• Use a gentle cold or warm wash cycle (under 40°C)

• Use mild detergent (eco or sensitive formulas are best)

• Wash it separately or with other soft bedding

• Spot-clean small marks with gentle soap + water

 Don’t:

• Use bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh chemicals

• Use high heat

• Wash with heavy items (towels, jeans, zippers)

Split Peach uses a waterproof core membrane hidden between soft bamboo layers. It’s built tough — but treating it with care will keep that barrier functioning at full strength longer.

 2. Drying It the Right Way

Air drying is best. But we know life gets busy — so here’s the safe path:

 Do:

• Hang dry over a rail, clothesline, or indoor rack

• If using a dryer, choose low heat or delicate tumble dry

• Smooth it out to avoid crinkles as it dries

 Don’t:

• Use high heat (can damage waterproof core)

• Wring it aggressively

• Dry over rough surfaces or sharp corners

Pro tip: A little sunlight (not scorching midday heat) can also help freshen it naturally and keep odours away.

3. Storing It Like a Pro

When not in use, your Split Peach Blanket deserves better than the back of a closet or squashed under shoes.

Here’s how to store it with care:

• Fold loosely — don’t compress tight

• Store in a breathable cotton bag or pillowcase

• Avoid damp, hot, or dusty spots (no plastic tubs or sealed bins)

• Keep near the bedroom if you use it regularly

Want it to stay sleek and wrinkle-free? Smooth it out before folding, and hang occasionally if needed.

 4. 

How Often Should You Wash It?

That depends on how you’re using it:

The bamboo fabric is naturally antibacterial — so it stays fresher longer than synthetic fleece or polyester. But regular care will keep it soft, stain-free, and absorbent.

 Bonus Tip: Add a Spare One to Your Routine

Many of our customers end up buying a second Split Peach Blanket just for convenience — one for the bed, one for the laundry rotation.

Some use one exclusively for intimacy, and another for baby or pet care. It saves stress and extends the life of both.

 A Little Love Goes a Long Way

You don’t need special tools or expensive cleaners. You just need care, intention, and a bit of consistency.

The Split Peach Blanket is designed to be long-lasting, machine washable, and eco-friendly — but the better you treat it, the better it will treat you.
