About Pure Cotton:
– As with cotton clothing, pure cotton is breathable, comfortable and luxurious in comparison to polycotton. It also lasts longer than polycotton.
– Pure cotton does require ironing, but this is easy if slightly damp or sprayed with water before ironing. The advantages of pure cotton bedding however make this a fair trade-off.
– For hospitality establishments, pure cotton will allow you to achieve higher ratings, revenue and is almost always preferred by European travellers.
About Thread Counts:
The thread count of a fabric is the number of threads woven into a square inch of the fabric. The higher the number, the more luxurious the fabric is considered to be (subject to the quality of the weave). Beyond about 400/500 thread count, fabrics become thicker to get the ever-increasing number of threads per unit of area. One should consider thread count, texture and thickness when choosing the fabric they prefer.
About the fabric
This fabric contains 200 threads per square inch woven in a percale weave of pure cotton.
Percale employs a straightforward plain-weave pattern. Imagine it as a friendly criss-cross: one thread goes over, and the next one goes under. This creates a tightly woven fabric that feels crisp and has a matte finish.
Percale sheets typically have a thread count of about 180 or higher. Compared to other weaves like twill or sateen, percale is noticeably tighter. It’s like the well-pressed shirt of the bedding world—firm, smooth, and without any glossy sheen
The magic lies in those thin threads. When woven together, they yield a lightweight, breathable fabric. Picture yourself on a warm summer night, cocooned in percale sheets—the perfect balance of comfort and coolness. No wonder it’s a favourite for those who tend to sleep hot.
Pure cotton gets softer with age, especially after washing. Cotton is a natural fibre derived from the cotton plant. It’s soft, breathable, and comfortable. Being entirely natural, it’s biodegradable and eco-friendly. It’s highly absorbent, allowing it to wick away moisture from your skin. It does, however, require steam ironing if you prefer a wrinkle free bed. Make sure you use steam or spray it with water before ironing as this make the job quick. Dry sheets do not iron well.
