What does GOTS certification mean, and why does it matter?
GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard. This bed linen is GOTS certified, meaning it meets recognised standards covering the processing of organic fibres throughout the supply chain, from raw materials through to manufacturing.
How does organic cotton farming differ from conventional cotton farming?
Organic cotton is grown using natural farming methods. According to the information supporting this collection, organic cotton production can use 91% less water than regular cotton, while farming methods that avoid manufactured nitrogren-based fertilisers can reduce greenhouse gas production by up to 94%.
What does this bed linen feel like to sleep in?
This bed linen is woven into a 200 thread count percale weave, giving it a beautifully crisp, cool and fresh feel. The cotton has a long staple length and has been combed for extra smoothness and strength, creating light, breathable bed linen that feels lovely against the skin.
How do the duvet covers fasten?
The duvet covers in this collection are fastened with tie closures, which makes them easy to use and means you never have to iron around fiddly buttons. The pillowcases have an envelope closure for a neat and polished finish, and the fitted sheets are elasticated around the full perimeter for a secure, smooth fit.
Does this bed linen carry any other certifications?
Yes. Alongside its GOTS certification, this collection is also Oeko-Tex certified, meaning it has been tested against Oeko-Tex requirements for harmful substances.
How should I wash and care for this bed linen?
We recommend washing at 30 degrees and hanging to dry out of direct sunlight where you can. If you prefer a crisper finish, iron while the linen is slightly damp. Powdered detergents work best for white linen, and avoid anything containing optical brighteners or bleach, which can affect the fabric over time.
What guarantee does this collection come with?
This bed linen carries a 2-year guarantee. It has been made with long-staple combed cotton for durability, and with care, it will reward you with years of comfortable, conscious sleeping.
