How to choose the right professional bed linen without ironing for your establishment?

There are several quality criteria to take into account when choosing a linen without ironing, such as :

The material,
the type of weave,
size,
resistance.

In the hotel collection, we offer 3 ranges of pure white cotton bed linen that require no ironing.

First and foremost, washed percaleThe process of pre-washing the fabric before it is made gives the cotton suppleness, softness and a matt, slightly crumpled look that is resolutely fashionable.

Then a washed satinwith a weave of the finest cotton yarns, combined with the same pre-wash technique for a velvety feel and subtly wrinkled finish on sheets, comforter covers and pillowcases.

Finally, a range of bed linen in percale seersucker whose relief brings a touch of originality and sobriety to the guest rooms. Seersucker is the result of a weaving technique in which different tensions are applied to produce a fabric that is both smooth on the bottom and embossed on the surface, with the advantage of being breathable and lightweight. Note that the sheet in this range is made of smooth cotton percale with a seersucker facing.

These bed linen ranges are offered exclusively in white, a traditional color in the hotel industry for its ease of care, but also because it evokes purity. but also because it evokes purity.

Another criterion is size. It is important to choose the right dimensions for each type of bedding to ensure a neat, impeccable finish.

Fabric shrinkage is anticipated at the time of manufacture, so bed linen items are delivered oversized to measure the correct size after decatizing and washing.

How do you maintain and store your bed linen without ironing?

Here are a few tips on how to care for linen without ironing and optimize its life span

The purpose of this is to remove the primer, give the bed linen its final size and provide flexibility.
Before washing, it’s essential toidentify stains and treat them with a suitable stain remover.
Wash at the temperature indicated on the label, avoiding overloading the machine drum and limiting the spin speed. This will allow the laundry to be washed thoroughly and avoid wrinkles.
Air dry if possible, or tumble dry at the recommended temperature. After washing, it’s important to take the laundry out immediately to avoid wrinkles.
If you notice marks from folding laundry when you make your beds, particularly on comforter covers and pillowcases, we recommend you use an ironer.
Linen storage and tidying is also important for preserving the benefits of iron-free laundry. First of all, we advise you to keep a stock of 3 sets of bed linen, or 5 sets if you outsource maintenance to a laundry, to ensure a smooth turnover. Linen should then be stored by size, properly folded, in a dry place away from humidity and dust to limit the proliferation of dust mites.
