Achieving hygienic laundry results is important, especially when it comes to laundry for young children and those with sensitive skin. At the same time, it can be difficult to clean delicate garments, which require special care such as dry cleaning or manual hand washing.
With Bosch ActiveOxygen technology, a cold fog of activated oxygen removes odours from your laundry at low temperatures without the use of chemical additives. This option can be paired with most wash programmes to give you fresh, clean laundry. For gentle care of delicate fabrics, the 45-minute ActiveOxygen Refresh dry programme refreshes your apparel quickly by removing odours such as mildew, tobacco and food smells, without the the use of water or detergent.
Read on to find out our recommendations on the ideal ActiveOxygen programmes to use for various fabric types and laundry situations.
The perfect wash for soiled fabrics
From heavily soiled sportswear to your favourite shirts, the ActiveOxygen option can be added to a variety of programmes – just look out for the bolded text on the control panel, and remember to set the temperature to 40°C and below.
Recommended Programme: Any bolded programme (depending on fabric type) with the ActiveOxygen option
Fewer trips to the drycleaners
Delicate fabrics such as silk, cashmere and merino wool require special care and are unsuitable to be washed in a washing machine.
With the ActiveOxygen Refresh dry programme, no heat, water or detergent are involved. This ensures the best fabric and colour protection for your delicates, while ensuring they remain fresh as new.
Now you can look and smell your best at a moment’s notice, saving a trip to the drycleaners.

Refresh suits and winter wear
Mildew and musty odours are a common problem for suits and winter wear that have been stored in the closet for a long time.
With the ActiveOxygen Refresh programme, you can refresh your favourite suit or winter jacket in just 45 minutes, ready for you to wear in time for your business meeting or holiday.

A hygienic clean for your young ones
Stuffed toys and clothes are a child’s most prized possessions but they can also be a hotbed for mould, dust mites and germs.
To preserve their soft, delicate feel while ensuring the most hygienic clean, use the AllergyPlus programme with ActiveOxygen option to remove allergens effectively.
Recommended Programme: AllergyPlus with ActiveOxygen option
Good for humans and pets
Owning a pet is one of life’s greatest pleasures but they can often leave trails of fur, dander and odour in their wake.
For heavily soiled and fur-filled laundry items like mats, toys and towels for pets, use the AllergyPlus programme with ActiveOxygen option to remove allergens effectively.
