How to care for and wash Organic Washed Cotton Percale Bed Linen

Organic washed cotton percale bed linen is known for its durability, breathability, and crisp, cool feel. Proper care ensures it stays soft and lasts for years. Here’s how to keep your organic cotton percale duvet covers, fitted sheets, flat sheets, and pillowcases in top condition:

1. Washing

  • Machine wash: Use a gentle or normal cycle with cold or warm water (up to 40°C/104°F). Cold water preserves fabric strength and prevents shrinkage.
  • Mild detergent: Choose a mild, natural detergent that is free of bleach and harsh chemicals to maintain the organic cotton’s integrity.
  • Wash separately: For best results, wash your organic cotton percale bed linen separately from heavy fabrics like towels or jeans, as these can cause wear and tear.

2. Drying

  • Line dry: Air drying is the best way to maintain the fabric’s quality. Hang your bed linen outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
  • Tumble dry: If you prefer machine drying, use a low heat setting. Remove the bed linen when it’s still slightly damp to minimize wrinkles and prevent over-drying.

3. Ironing

  • Optional ironing: If you prefer a smooth, wrinkle-free look, iron on a low heat setting. For best results, iron while the fabric is still damp or use a steam iron.

4. Avoid Fabric Softeners

  • No need for fabric softeners: Organic cotton percale softens with each wash, so fabric softeners are unnecessary. Softeners can also coat the fibers, reducing breathability.

5. Storage

  • Store in a cool, dry place: Fold and store your bed linen in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
  • Breathable storage bags: Store in cotton or linen bags to allow airflow, which helps keep the fabric fresh.

6. Reduce Wear and Tear

When cared for correctly, bed linen will last many years. Please note however, due to the strain they come under, fitted sheets can show signs of wear earlier than on other products such as duvet covers and flat sheets. This is normal as a result from frequent and considerable use. We therefore suggest purchasing more than one fitted sheet to alternate between uses.

By following these simple care steps, your organic washed cotton percale bed linen will stay soft, crisp, and comfortable for years to come.
