As people’s living standards continue to improve, hotels are paying more attention to guests’ sensory experiences. Therefore, when purchasing hotel room linens, guests’ tactile experience is a primary consideration. So, what fabric provides a better skin-friendly feel for hotel bedding? Satin Fabric Satin fabric, also known as satin weave, is a type of fabric with a complex weaving process where warp and weft threads interlace at least every three threads, resulting in a fabric with a density of 173*153 and made of combed yarns. Satin is named after the royal “tribute” due to its soft texture, smooth surface, good elasticity, and excellent breathability. Satin is a weaving method for bedding, which can be described as having a silky and durable touch. It looks high-end, and many five-star hotels use bedding with this weaving method. Characteristics of Satin Bedding Satin bedding is costlier than similar plain and twill products, as it has a higher fabric density, making it thicker and denser. However, its fabric surface is smoother, more delicate, soft to the touch, and has excellent luster and elasticity. Satin is closely woven, making it resistant to deformation. It has a smooth, shiny appearance, resembling silk, and is more comfortable with the softest touch, heavier than plain and twill fabrics, and highly abrasion-resistant.

• High-end jacquard and embroidered sets often use this type of fabric, with elegant and noble colors, complemented by exquisite patterns and delicate embroidery, highlighting the perfect quality of high-end bedding.

In terms of cost, satin is one of the highest grades; it can only be made from long-staple cotton, and it has high requirements for craftsmanship. How to Wash Satin Bedding?

1. Satin fabric has good alkali and heat resistance and can be cleaned with detergent. Satin fabric can also be washed at high temperatures with an alkaline detergent, which can act as a bleach. However, it is not suitable for chlorine bleach.
2. Satin fabric should not be soaked for too long to prevent fabric fading and loss of luster. Remember to soak and wash satin fabric separately from other linens to avoid color transfer.
3. After washing, do not wring out satin fabric by hand to prevent wrinkling. You can air-dry it in mild sunlight, with the inside facing out.

How to Maintain Satin Bedding?

1. When storing satin bedding, place it in a well-ventilated area to prevent the fabric from becoming damp in humid weather, which can lead to mold and spotting.
2. Satin bedding stored in cabinets for an extended period should be placed with camphor balls to prevent insects. It’s best to store light and dark satin bedding separately.
3. Satin bedding should be taken out and aired regularly, but it should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Instead, use gentle sunlight for drying to prevent fading and yellowing, which can reduce the fabric’s durability.
