Paka Washi by Ikigai Fiber

Ikigai Fiber employs an innovative process known as "Easy Wash." The Alpaca/Wool Easy Wash treatment incorporates enzymatic and oxidants processes to eliminate shrinkage, making Alpaca yarns suitable for machine-washable products. Importantly, this treatment is implemented with sustainable and environmentally friendly practices.

• Preservation of the natural characteristics of the fiber,
  unlike other treatments that may diminish its natural
  properties by covering it with synthetic materials.
• The treatment is entirely chlorine, resin, and sulfuric
  acid-free, ensuring no contamination to waterways.
• Free from harmful chemicals.
• Approved by Oekotex, Blue Sign, and Reach standards for
  environmental and social responsibility.
• Maximum shrinkage is approximately 8%, equivalent to
  Superwash Wool.
