The most important things in a nutshell
What is Perkal bedding?
The term percal means cloth (from the Persian of pargalah). It is a dense cotton fabric made of fine threads. Due to the production, the percal fabric is particularly solid, durable and has a smooth, supple surface. This offers you particularly high sleep comfort.If you want to buy the best percal linen, we recommend a version made of 100% cotton. Compared to percal bedding with up to with up to 50% polyester content, the cotton models are more breathable. They sweat less at night and have a more pleasant sleep.
They have not only white percal linen to choose from, but bedding in different colors and sizes. When purchasing, make sure that the bed linen is washable up to 60 °C and is suitable for the dryer. Some Perkal bedlinen sedans also comply with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100. This means that the bed linen has been tested for harmful substances.
