QUALITY - Egyptian Cotton , offer clients a super comfortable staying in hotels

Egyptian cotton is used to make some of the highest quality linens in the world , including sumptuously soft bath and bed linens . Egyptian cotton is grown to produce a longer staple , or fiber , than generic cotton , and the longer and finer a cotton staple is , the better able it is to be spun into finer count yarn , which in turn can be knitted or woven into soft, fine, and luxurious fabrics. The staple length in Egyptian cotton averages 1-1/8 to 1-1/2 inches , but can reach over 2-1/4 inches , which is twice the size of a generic cotton fiber . Products which highlight construction of Egyptian cotton are usually referring to the extra-long-staple cotton produced largely in the Nile River Valley . The humidity and rich soil around the Nile delta produce especially long cotton fibers , which are fine and vary from a light cream to dark tan color . Egyptian cotton is strong , durable , and if cared for properly, will be long lasting .

Sateen: Sateen fabric has a soft , satin-like finish resulting from a four-over-one thread weave . Standard weaves , like percale, use a one-over , one-under stitch . The four-over weave puts more threads nearer the surface , resulting in a softer , warmer surface . Sateen fabrics are most often made of mercerized cotton , but can be made of other fabrics , including cotton blends , polyester, and rayon . Mercerized threads give sateen fabrics a higher luster . Mercerization , named for process-creator John Mercer , involves treating threads with a cold concentrated sodium hydroxide solution . Mercerization also increases strength , dyeability , and resistance to mildew , as well as reduces lint . Sateens can be produced in light and heavy weights , and are ideal for bedding .
