700g Of traditional starch to give your table linen,bed linen and other cotton-rich items an old -fashioned crisp finish,with many returning customers !
Now it seems that only spray starches are available to keep your napkins, table cloths, bed linen and shirts crisp and fresh. (These are inferior) to the traditional cold and hot water starches as they sit on top of the fabric, rather than completely saturating the individual fibers with starch.
You will find that the results with our starch are many times better than with spray starches. No matter how good the spray starch is, it will never be able to compete with the real thing.
Additionally, blended from 100% natural products and naturally occurring minerals, our starch is of a very high quality. It contains no animal products and has not been tested on animals.
There are other traditional laundry starches available but our research has shown that they contain less than half the active ingredients that ours contains - that means that the rest is composed of cheap fillers
Customers are always amazing us with odd uses for our starch.
One man is making hats for a theatrical production and uses Kershaw's starch for stiffening the peaks. This doesn't surprise us, as we supply the National Theatre and the Theatre Royal in Hay-market, as well as several film companies - spray starch just won't do for those period outfits!
We have had several orders from toastmasters (for their waistcoats) and also from bridal companies. Not only these, but a London judge has bought our starch, too.
It is even used by a well-known cosmetic company - although we don't know whether they use it in lipstick or powder.
We have provided starch to students of St Martin's College where they use it for sizing fabrics and we have also had orders from needlework colleges.
Kershaw's starch is currently used on the best linen on board two super yachts.
We also sell quite a lot to the Sikh community for their turban

I have owned a pot of this starch for over five years and it is just coming to an end. I have found it to be brilliant for starching traditional linen napkins. My pot has the instructions on the side. Wash article and spin. Dissolve four level scoops of starch in a little cold water. [You need to make sure that you have a solution that is like thick cream. The starch is an odd substance and it takes quite a bit of water to get this but add as little cold water as possible.] Add boiling water, stiring continually, to make a thick glue-like paste. [I make my starch in a very large jug and tend to add up to one litre of boiling water. You have to take care not to let it go lumpy]. The instructions then suggest adding a further litre of cold water but for napkins I find that another five litres mean that the napkins are not too stiff. You soak the articles in the starch, spin them and then let them dry out. They need to be ironed whilst still slightly damp.
The whole process is time consuming, especially as I do around 30 napkins in one go (but they then last for many months). However, nothing beats a well ironed and starched napkin and I love them. As an aside, linen napkins are very expensive. I have inherited many of mine from great aunts etc and some are over sixty years old. I have also bought them from the USA via eBay.
Fantastic product which gives my household linen great body. Ideal for lace nets as it makes them stand away from the windows and let in more light as a result. This is my second order but it can be purchased more economically from Chumleigh hardware's own web site rather than on here.
I have been using this product for years and love the cool,crisp finish it gives to my cotton sheets. I just wash them as normal in my machine and then put in a couple of scoops of starch at the end of the cycle and do another rinse on the starch programme, or just a regular rinse works well too. I have never had any problems with my machine doing it this way. It works out quite expensive as a pot lasts me about 3 weeks, but then I am laundering sheets for three king size beds, and its so nice getting into the bed with freshly starched sheets. No one I know starches their bedlinen any more but i love the feel of getting into a bed with freshly starched sheets.
