Mattes has developed the special MELP detergent specifically for lambskinproducts.
It is highly concentrated, biodegradable and contains the same substances that is used in the Mattes production processes. MELP’s ability to replenish natural oils is particularly important: this ensures that the wool remains resilient and elastic while the leather stays soft, even after numerous washes.

The best way to wash and dry your lamskin products, step by step. 
Before washing:

  • Fasten any Velcro.
  • Remove POLY-FLEX® shims and SADDLE-FIX®.
  • Always wash saddle pads inside out and separately from fleece rugs.

Wash gently:

  • Wash your lambskin products in the washing machine; machine washing is more effective than washing by hand.
  • Do not overload your machine.
  • A 30 °C wash cycle is ideal.
  • Choose the “extra water” option and a normal spin cycle.
  • Always use the special MELP detergent from Mattes. Please avoid using any other wool detergent, fabric softener or bleach.

Dry gently:

  • Remove the product from the washing machine immediately at the end of the cycle.
  • Lambskin items are best dried on a cold or cool (max 30 °C) setting in the tumble dryer, or alternatively outdoors in the shade. Never expose to direct heat or bright sunlight.
  • Gently reshape the product as it dries.

Technical description

Why should I use the MELP detergent rather than an ordinary wool laundry detergent?
Normal laundry detergents usually contain ingredients that will harm the wool and leather. Even wool detergents are designed to be perfect for wool which has been treated to prevent matting, as is the case for most modern woollen items. As a result, it is possible that even these may cause damage to the natural lambskin. Over time, the wool will become brittle and matted and the leather can harden and crack. However, we have developed our special MELP detergent specifically for our lambskinproducts. It is highly concentrated, biodegradable and contains the same substances that we use in our production processes. MELP’s ability to replenish natural oils is particularly important: this ensures that the wool remains resilient and elastic while the leather stays soft, even after numerous washes.

My washing machine doesn’t have the “extra water” option. What can I do?
Before you start the main wash cycle, simply add an extra three to four litres of water to the washing machine: to do this, pull out the detergent drawer and slowly pour the water into the drawer using a measuring jug or houseplant watering can.
