Ecolabel certification ensures water pollution has been reduced to a minimum, no substances dangerous to health have been used and the whole production process has been controlled. Percale: Percale is a plain-weave fabric, meaning that the warp and the weft threads cross over and under each other one at a time. The threads are tightly woven, which results in a fine texture and finish. The percale weave is durable and smooth to the touch. Percale sheets may feel softer after each wash. Even after years of use, these sheets still resist pilling. One hundred percent cotton percale sheets feel cool and crisp against the skin, which is especially beneficial during warm weather. Combed Cotton: This means the cotton fibres have undergone additional manufacturing processes called combing. This reduces the quantity of uneven, short fibres, leaving stronger and longer fibres for weaving. To request a fabric cutting, select this option from the drop down menu. Please note this swatch is the same as Ajour sheets and does not include embroidery.
