Whether or not you’re a fan of cold winds, misty midday chills and rainy evenings, the fact of the matter is that the warm and welcoming weather of the last few months has bid us goodbye. This is also a time when we use our washing machines far more than usual, from those oversized jackets to multiple layers of clothing. And with the flu season in full swing, there is also a greater need to keep our clothing hygienic to stop germs from spreading. Fortunately, these are considerations already factored into the design of Samsung appliances. And now, many will also be pleased to hear that Samsung Wash Days are back. The longstanding, successful partnership between Samsung laundry appliances and OMO auto liquid has been designed to provide a highly efficient, stress-free laundry experience. Samsung has once again partnered with Unilever to bring South Africans the Samsung Wash Days campaign, powered by OMO. Customers purchasing a Samsung AddWash™, Ecobubble™ or Activ DualWash™ Washing machines will qualify for an OMO Wash Days for up to 180 Free Washes from participating stores.
“The combination of innovative technology in Samsung’s washing machines and OMO’s trusted performance is a perfect match for any laundry day. With this campaign, we’re also building on our mission to give customers peace of mind that with Samsung appliances, keeping everyday items cleaner is a breeze, “said Cambridge Mokanyane, Chief Marketing Officer at Samsung South Africa.

To celebrate the return of Samsung Wash Days with OMO, here are a few simple washing tips:
Washing your laundry at a low 30°C takes less of a toll on your clothes and allows your household to be more environmentally friendly. With Winter temperatures on our mind here are a few ways temperature makes a difference:
- The temperature on the care label refers to the highest temperature the item can be washed at without being damaged, but you can wash it at a lower temperature to save electricity.
- Grass, food or grease stain? Instead of wasting energy washing a stubbornly stained garment twice, wash the item at the highest temperature indicated on the care label, along with other items that can handle this heat.
- Always wash dark clothes separately, even when washing at a low temperature.
- Always do a full load of laundry to be as energy-efficient as possible. Group garments together that can be washed using the same cycle. Don’t overload the machine either, as this may lead to the clothes not being washed properly.
- Use the highest spin the items can handle if your machine has a separate spin selector. This will mean less drying time needed.
- Unpleasant smells are caused by bacteria growing on fabrics that have been lying in a bundle while wet for an extended period of time.
- BONUS WINTER TIP: If one family member has a cold, wash their items separately at the highest temperature on the care label using OMO. This will help kill germs and prevent the infection from spreading.
