Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed.

The material of the fitted sheet has a high-quality appearance and is very elastic, which allows it to adapt well to different mattresses. The all-round elastic band ensures that the product is pulled up in no time at all and does not slip. The breathable elastane cotton not only feels pleasantly soft, but also ensures a healthy sleeping environment. We didn’t notice any noises, slipping or unpleasant creases during the night. Even after several nights, it was not necessary to smooth out the creases or reposition the product. The fitted sheet is washable up to 60 °C. It can be dried at a low temperature. However, the latter is not necessary due to the quick drying properties.
The manufacturer currently offers different versions of the fitted sheet that fit standard mattress sizes from 140 to 160 × 200 and 180 to 200 × 200 cm. The available colors are anthracite, beige, grey and white.
