Caring for Cotton Sateen
Caring for Cotton Sateen
Our sumptuous cotton sateen bed linen is made from tightly woven, high thread count, pure cotton fabric. Cotton sateen is made by weaving four threads over and one thread under, creating a fabric that is soft and smooth to the touch. Experience the feeling of a little luxury every night while sleeping in luxurious cotton sateen bedding.
Our cotton sateen caring tips will help keep your bedding looking and feeling beautiful for longer. And the longer your bed linen is kept, cherished, repurposed and saved from landfill, the more sustainable it becomes.
Care instructions for washing cotton sateen bed linen
Imperial collection 1000 thread count cotton sateen
Our Imperial cotton sateen bedding is slightly oversized to allow for shrinkage during washing, this will ensure your fitted sheets will still fit the bed after laundering. Cold machine wash with mild laundry powder or liquid. Warm tumble dry or line dry in shade. Warm iron. Do not soak. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Bleach can weaken bed linen fabric, and fabric softener contains silicone which creates a waterproof coating on textiles.

Our Monarch cotton sateen bedding is slightly oversized to allow for shrinkage during washing, this will ensure your fitted sheets will still fit the bed after laundering. Cold machine wash with mild laundry powder or liquid. Line dry in shade. Warm iron. Do not soak. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
