The Cora Ball is for those times you are washing synthetic fabrics - stopping 31% of the hundreds of thousand of pieces of microplastics that can enter waterways from each load.

Cora Balls
Did you know that during the wash, the synthetic fabrics in our clothes shed hundreds of thousands of microfibres? These head out to the ocean as microplastics.
Microplastics pollute our oceans and waterways - if you want to learn more check out the full blog post here.
Cora Balls are blue for our oceans, working endlessly like coral to filter out water. Every-time you pop your Cora Ball in the wash you will be reminded that we need to take better care of our oceans and that this small action has huge effects for our precious marine life and our own health.
No lifetime - have your Cora Ball forever
Simply add your Cora Ball into your washing machine!
Cora Balls collect mircofibre fuzz which is made during washing
The microfibre fuzz can then be disposed of appropriately (best option for now is into the trash like dryer fluff)
Approximately one third of microfibres per load, are caught per Cora Ball
Made of 100% recycled and 100% recyclable soft and stretchy plastic - physical and chemical properties will be maintained in the washing machine temperature extremes
-
Stainless Clothing Pegs
Use as per your plastic pegs. Please note the care recommendations if you live coastal - a quick wash in warm soapy water will extend the life of your CaliWoods Stainless Pegs. Please check the lawn carefully before mowing the lawns.
Eco Wool Dryer Balls
Put all three balls into the Dryer at one time. Dry your clothing and bedding as per usual. Remove from the dryer when the load has finished and air out on the windowsill.
Cora Balls
Simply add your Cora Ball to your washing machine and wash your load as normal. After a few months (depending on how many loads you are doing), you will find 'fluff' accumulating in the centre of the Cora Ball.
Remove the fluff and place it into a landfill bin. Please note that the microplastics take time to accumulate, given we are targeting the microscopic level of plastic pollution with the Cora Ball.
*Please note that the Cora Ball is unsuitable for delicate fabrics or clothing with many straps. Please protect these items in a delicates bag or leave the Cora Ball out of the wash for that cycle.

Stainless Clothing Pegs
Keep Stainless Steel Pegs undercover or inside when they are not in use. This will make a huge difference to the lifespan of your pegs.
If you live in a coastal region, wash with soapy water and air dry your pegs monthly. This will prevent salt build-up and extend their lifespan.
Keep your Stainless Pegs in a basket or bag to prevent them from getting lost and run over by the lawnmower!
Eco Wool Dryer Balls
Clean: No cleaning required, your balls will remain in great condition.
Care: Please air out your Dryer Balls after each load by removing them from the dryer and placing them on a windowsill. Please do not put your Dryer Balls in the washing machine.
End of Life: Your Dryer Balls are made from 100% natural fibre. At the end of their life you can use a home compost if you are able to break the ball down into smaller pieces. Please landfill if composting is not an option.
Cora Balls
You will need to remove the 'fluff' from your Cora Ball every few months. Clean in the same manner you would a hairbrush - removing visible fibres using fingers or tweezers.
This is likely to be a collection of hair, and visible fabric fibres. That is okay, the microfibers will collect around these fibres too.
We can take back our Cora Balls at the end of their life as part of the manufacturer's take-back program, where they are made back into new Cora Balls. There is no curbside recycling option in New Zealand for the Cora Ball, so please use the landfill bin if you don't send your ball back to us.
*Please note that you must protect delicates or strappy clothing items when using a Cora Ball. Please use a delicates bag or leave the Cora Ball out of that load.

Your CaliWoods Pegs won't rust. The 316 Marine Grade stainless steel is designed to withstand the elements even when you live coastally. To give your Stainless Pegs a helping hand when they are not in use, store them under cover and a monthly wash with soapy water if you live near the beach.

These Eco Wool Dryer Balls are made from 100% NZ Wool, which is unbleached and chemical-free. They are generously sized compared to others, made with care, and each set comes with a cotton stash bag. We guarantee the quality of our wool dryer balls.
We launched Stainless Pegs into the New Zealand market in 2019. Since then there has been a vast array of pegs pop up on shelves. All we can say is do your research as they certainly are not all made equal. We could make our Pegs half the cost, but they would be half the quality, wouldn’t last 10 years +, and would rust out on your washing line. We back these 100%.
-
There have been two independent studies done on the Cora Ball, and the microplastic capture rate is 26-31%. Several factors determine the effectiveness, such as fabrics in the load, pet hair included in the wash, and wash settings/frequency.
It's noteworthy that both these studies showed that the Cora Ball prevented fabrics from shedding in the first place -win-win!
