Percale Sheet
Organic and Other Sheets Explained - The mystery behind all the fancy names
What we know about sheets is that they protect our expensive mattress set; a process that used to be referred to as "sheeting". Today sheeting is marketable and profitable industry of its own providing consumers with many difficult choices of materials, sizes, and styles. Obscure fabric titles add to the confusion as advertisers and marketers attempt to persuade us to buy a product that is not really in our best interest. To clarify, let's start with a few basic materials used to make sheets for today's bedding.
Organic sheets are generally cotton or bamboo grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals. Manufactures use only all-natural plant and vegetable dyes to achieve its patterns and earth tones.
Percale sheets are a closely-woven plain weave of all cotton or cotton-polyester a blend that is firm, smooth, cool and comfortable against the skin.
Muslin sheets more coarsely loosely-woven cotton fabric of high durability. Muslin breathes well and does well in hot, dry climates.
Flannel sheets Christmas time favorite as they are popularized in the winter months, are woven with nappy cotton fibers that provide additional warmth.
Linen sheets Linen is made from the fibers of the flax plant and is labor-intensive to manufacture and is not processed in the united states; it is either imported from Eastern Europe or Britain. Linen has a color range in shades of ivory, tan or grey with a high natural luster, pure white linen has been heavily bleached.
Synthetic sheets made from man-made fiber, improvements on naturally occurring animal and plant fibers which gives us nylon, polyester, acrylic and polyolefin. Since real silk is expensive, rayon is usually the process for the silk/satin novelty sheets.
Blends add synthetic fibers to any of the natural fibers above and you have a blend.
The history of sheeting can be traced back to the Egyptians who, of course used linen. This may be why there is some confusion since many times bed sheeting may be called linen but not actually made of the fiber of the flax plant or actual linen. This history also makes Egyptian cotton sheets ironic in that Egyptian cotton is a term applied to the extra long staple, a species of cotton plant, grown in Egypt today and marketed worldwide.
Since size and style are dependant on an individuals taste and needs basis, the next consideration is thread count. Most of us are familiar with thread count in that the higher the thread count number the more expensive the product. This means the consumer that a higher thread count produces a more comfortable sheeting. The National Textile Association (NTA) attempts to provide consumers with an international standard through the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials). However, thread count can still be misleading over 500. Talk about splitting hairs, here we start splitting and counting ply of yarn (thread) getting the thread count higher much faster than single ply yarn since some yarn has multiple ply or piled. Talk about piled higher and deeper! The Federal Trade Commission had to step in or in it and ask the experts to come up with a formal definition. There was a minority of dissenters that wanted to use "average yarn number" instead of the ASTM proposed definition. Therefore, thread count is a unit of measure establishing the fineness of a fabric by counting the number of threads in one square inch of said fabric.
