What is cotton percale? Little reminder.
Cotton percale
Contrary to what one might think, it designates a weaving technique, not a material. You are surely wondering why it is considered one of the vital elements of high-end bed linen. The answer is simple. The quality
of fabric lies mainly in its weaving. And cotton percale is one of the finest weaves for household linen. We are talking here about a weave in plain weave. That is, the threads intersect above and below. The tighter and denser the weaving, the more it will characterize the excellence and resistance of the material. If you are interested in more technical details, we let you read our first article on the subject right here.

Another plus that makes us want to choose cotton percale bedsheets is their anti-allergenic property. This pleasant material on your skin will not attack it.

Bed linen is changed regularly due to wear or simply out of taste. Be aware that cotton percale bed linen guarantees a longer life than other materials. Thanks to the extreme density
of cotton percale, pilling is avoided. On the contrary, your percale duvet cover will become softer and softer wash after wash, if that’s not magic! So make sure you have a
