NEWS about washing and sterilization of nursing pads made of ecological merino wool
Through many years LANACare has been a leading firm within production and sale of nursing pads made of wool and right now a quite new nursing pad made of pure soft merino wool has been developed and marketed. And the new SOFT LINE nursing pad has already been extremely well received.There are exactly as many prejudices against caring and washing instructions, as there are different kinds of woollen nursing pads. It is recommended to wash the new SOFT LINE nursing pads on the WOOL washing programme 30 degr. C and afterwards – while they are still wet – put them in the microwave oven for 3 minutes on full power (100 degr. C). The result is totally sterile nursing pads without bacteria and fungus.
Since January 2007 professor in environmental engineering Mr. Gabriel Britton at the University of Florida has pointed out that all homes supplied with a microwave oven have extremely effective means for sterilization of kitchen textiles – and therefore also nursing pads – against bacteria and fungus.
The State Serum Institute recommends 100 degr. C in connection with elimination of fungus. This is easily achieved by means of the microwave oven and it becomes quite simple to wash and sterilize the new, soft and comfortable SOFT LINE nursing pads.
For further information and if you have questions regarding the above please contact LANACare, Jeannette Almstroem.
Guidelines in sizes:
Mini - 3 1/2 in. - A cup (Size XS is recommended owing to the benefits of the wool when the whole breast is covered.)X-Small - 5 in.- A or B cup
Small - 6 in. - B or C cup
Medium - 7 in. - D cup or larger
Large - 9 in. - D cup or larger
Oval - 7 x 11 in. - D cup or by breast infection
Many women are surprised by the size of the pads.
This is because the wool is not only intended for absorbing milk but also to protect and warm your entire breasts.
