How Do Wool Dryer Balls Work?

Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls soak up moisture in your dryer by absorbing up to 30% of their weight in water. Plus, their movement in the dryer helps separate your clothes and sheets allowing air and heat to circulate and dry them faster. As your laundry dries, the dryer balls fluff and evenly redistribute humidity in the dryer to help eliminate wrinkles, reduce static cling, and provide a softer feel to your fabrics. The result is a quicker drying time, softer and more manageable laundry, all with less energy used, and more money in your pocket!

How to Use

Use at least 4 dryer balls for a small load or use 5-6 for a large load. (Or you can use 6 every time if you want – it will shorten your drying time.)

Place your wet laundry into the dryer, along with the dryer balls. Run the dry cycle. That’s all!

You can also stop the dryer 5-10 minutes before the end of its normal cycle. Do not over-dry. Remember that over-drying will produce static cling.

Handmade with Love

Lovingly handmade for fair wages by underprivileged women and people with disabilities in Kathmandu, Nepal. Made with high standards for ethical working conditions, medical care, education, and purpose to empower people while respecting animals and nature.

Cruelty-Free

Certified Cruelty Free by Leaping Bunny. The wool comes from sheep humanely treated and sheared. It is sourced from a small group of family-owned farms in New Zealand where sheep are treated ethically. No chemicals, hormones, or pesticides are ever used, and of course no mulesing is practiced.

Plastic-Free Packaging

Each set of 6 extra large wool balls comes with a user manual and a reusable hand-printed organic storage bag tied with a cotton drawstring and soapberry seed beads. It may also include a simple cardboard hangtag attached with string.

End of Life

This product and packaging are both entirely compostable. Manual and hangtag can be recycled or composted.
