Robert Beaumont (our mother
company in the United Kingdom) offers his tips for buying and caring for your
bed linen.
- Although thread count
is important, don’t be persuaded to buy anything too dense, for optimum
comfort and care the maximum thread-count worth considering should be a 400T.
- Don’t be too hung up
on buying Egyptian Cotton. The Egyptian Cotton “brand” is the result of
spin (excuse the pun!) and the reality is that high quality cotton is made
all over the world, the top five cotton producing countries are actually
China, USA, India, Pakistan and Brazil. Much so called Egyptian Cotton is
actually imported from these countries.
- Buy your linen large
enough to allow for shrinkage, typically well finished cotton will shrink
around 3-4% after the first wash and then never again. Reputable companies
allow for this and the sizes given are after the estimated shrinking of
the first wash.
- Wash your linen before
use. The cloth has come straight from the finishing process and so will
have a slight smell of finishing. One wash will remove this.
