FAQs

What makes Egyptian cotton different from regular cotton?

Egyptian cotton has longer, finer fibres than regular cotton. This results in a smoother, stronger, and more durable fabric that is also highly breathable and absorbent.

What does 'sateen weave' mean for the feel of the sheet?

A sateen weave uses a specific construction that allows more threads on the surface, creating a smoother, silkier feel with a subtle lustrous sheen, compared to a standard percale weave which is crisper.

Is the 30cm depth suitable for all mattresses?

The 30cm depth is suitable for most standard mattresses. However, if you have an extra-deep mattress (over 30cm), this fitted sheet may not provide full coverage.

How often should I wash my fitted sheet?

It is generally recommended to wash bed linens weekly or bi-weekly to maintain hygiene and freshness. However, this can vary based on personal preference and sleeping habits.

Can I use bleach on this sheet?

No, you should not use bleach on this fitted sheet as it can damage the Egyptian cotton fibres and the sateen weave, potentially causing discoloration or weakening the fabric.

What does Oeko-Tex certification ensure?

Oeko-Tex certification means that the textile has been tested for and is free from harmful levels of more than 100 substances, ensuring the product is safe for human health.

Where is this fitted sheet made?

The fitted sheet is designed in the UK and manufactured in India.

Troubleshooting

Sheet doesn't fit snugly.

Ensure the mattress depth does not exceed 30cm. Check that all four corners are correctly fitted and that the sheet is aligned with the mattress edges.

Fabric feels rough after washing.

Ensure you are washing at 40°C and using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh chemicals, which can degrade the cotton fibres. Ensure the sheet is not overcrowded in the washing machine.

Sheet shows signs of wear (pilling, thinning).

Check that you are adhering to the recommended washing temperature and avoiding high heat in the tumble dryer. Avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans or towels that could cause friction.

Elastic feels loose.

While designed for durability, prolonged high-heat drying can affect elastic. Ensure you are using low heat for tumble drying and consider air-drying to preserve the elastic's integrity.

Cons

  • Requires specific washing instructions (40°C) to maintain fabric integrity.
  • May be more expensive than standard cotton sheets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This fitted sheet is designed for straightforward application. Simply identify the top/bottom or side edges and stretch the elasticated corners over each corner of your mattress. Ensure the sheet is pulled taut for a smooth finish and to prevent wrinkling.

Compatibility:

  • Mattress Depth: Compatible with mattresses up to 30cm (approx. 12 inches) in depth.
  • Bed Size: Ensure you select the correct size for your bed (e.g., Single, Double, King, Super King).

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (104°F). Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry for best results and to prolong fabric life.
  • Ironing: If desired, iron on a medium heat setting while the sheet is still slightly damp. Avoid using bleach.
  • Separation: Wash with similar colours to prevent colour transfer.
