A self-regenerating softener pack used for the reduction of static and the
softening
of garments. This pack comprises a non-woven spunbonded polyester pouch with a
flaked/ solid softener/ antistatic compound. The pouch is placed in the dryer
with the
garments/ fabrics. The softener/ antistatic compound in the bag melt during
the drying
cycle and permeate through the non-woven spunbonded polyester pouch hence
coating its
outer layer. This layer enters into contact with the garments reducing static,
imparting
softness and smooth handle to the garment.
At the end of the cycle, the pouch is kept for future drying cycles. The same
process
reoccurs with each cycle until the total quantity of the softening/ antistatic
ingredient is
depleted. One pouch containing approximately 100 grams of active ingredient
can last for
up to 100 domestic size load cycles. This eliminates the need for change of
softener
sheets, softener addition during the rinse cycle in the washer and reduces
waste.
The softener pouch can be complemented with various scents, which can be
sprayed onto
the pouch before drying cycle. The scent is transferred to garment during the
cycle.
