Bed Sheet Fabric Types
Ultimately, the bed sheets that are best for you will depend on your personal preferences and the climate where you live. By considering the unique qualities of velvet, sateen, cotton, and satin bed sheets, you can make an informed decision to ensure a comfortable, restful sleep.
What is a Bed Sheet?
Cotton and cotton blends dominate the market, the most common blend being cotton/polyester. Cotton provides absorbency and a soft hand, while polyester adds durability and wrinkle resistance.[2] Other common fibers used in the manufacturing of bed sheets include linen, silk, Modal and bamboo rayon, lyocell, Microtex or Microfiber, and polypropylene. Polypropylene (olefin) is a hypoallergenic spun-bound material produced at a low cost and typically used in emergency shelters or hospitals as disposable sheeting.
Sateen weave is a type of cotton weave, which is one thread over and three threads under. This is different from the percale cotton weave – the traditional one thread over and one thread under. These additional threads make sateen slightly warmer on the skin, so it's great for cooler sleepers.
Silk production dates back far in human history and has long been regarded as a luxury fabric. It is a strong, durable material that is also lusciously soft and shiny. Silk is also very breathable, because it is a natural material, and generally maintains a cool temperature. This makes it a popular choice for hot sleepers. Additionally, silk can be beneficial for hair and skin, as it won’t absorb moisture or cause hair breakage like other materials, since it is so smooth.

Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of these two distinct terms so that you can make well informed decisions about your bedding choices. Afterall, you can’t risk making a bad bedding choice. Who doesn’t want to crawl upto a perfectly comfortable bed after a long hectic day?
