Questions and answers about bedding

How often do I wash the bed linen? Pay attention to the care label. Depending on the season, it is recommended to wash bed linen once or twice a month. After illness, you should change the bed linen even more often. What should I pay attention to when washing? Buttons, zips etc. should always be closed. For gentle washing, pull the duvet cover and pillowcases inside out. Also be careful not to load the washing machine too full and do not spin on the highest setting. The detergent should be suitable for coloured laundry. Do not use chemical brighteners and fabric softener for cotton bedding. Dry the bed linen in the air after washing (to protect the colour if possible, do not in the blazing sun). By hanging it smoothly, you can often save on ironing. What does renforcé and flannel mean? Renforcé bed linen is made from medium-fine cotton fabric. This is pleasant on the skin and allows a high level of moisture absorption. This type of bed linen is the ideal year-round bed linen, especially as it is also very durable and easy to clean. Flannel bedding is made from brushed cotton, so it is soft and fluffy and therefore ideal for cold nights. The fine protruding fibres form a natural small air cushion between the blanket and you to retain body heat.
