How do they work?
In a tumble dryer, the balls move between the pieces of laundry, separating them and allowing hot air to flow smoothly. This speeds up drying and reduces energy consumption by up to 30 percent.They are made from 100% natural materials, contain no chemicals, and are ideal for sensitive skin.
Wool balls work based on several physical principles that improve the drying process of laundry:
- Mechanical separation of laundry: during drying, they move between fabrics and prevent them from clumping together. They create space between individual pieces, allowing for better circulation of warm air and faster, more even drying.
- Improvement of air flow: by separating the laundry, they increase air permeability through the fabrics. Thanks to better circulation, moisture is removed more efficiently, significantly shortening drying time and saving energy.
- Reduction of static electricity: the balls help minimize friction between laundry and maintain optimal humidity in the dryer, thereby reducing the buildup of static electricity.
- Softening laundry:the mechanical movement in the dryer helps soften the fibers, ensuring fluffier and softer textiles without the need for chemical softeners.
5 reasons to use them:
-
Shorter drying time and energy savings
By preventing laundry from clumping and improving air circulation, they can reduce drying time by up to 30 percent. This means not only time savings but also lower energy costs. Softer, fluffier, and less wrinkled laundry
The movement in the dryer naturally massages the fabrics, minimizing wrinkles. The result is smooth, soft, and airy laundry that looks freshly ironed.-
Moisture absorption and faster drying
Thanks to the natural ability of wool to absorb up to 30 percent of its weight in water, the drying process is accelerated, and the laundry dries evenly. Reduction of static electricity
The wool has antistatic properties, which, combined with movement in the dryer, helps minimize friction between fabrics. This way, clothes don't stick together or to the body, making them much easier to handle.Natural softening of fabrics without chemicals
They are 100% natural and contain no synthetic substances or fragrances. This makes them hypoallergenic and suitable for people with sensitive skin or small children.
