Important Factors For Buying Hotel Linen

Important factors for buying hotel linen

When buying hotel linen, you should pay attention to the brand, raw materials, and environmental factors, not just the price and style. The most commonly used raw materials in hotel bedding are cotton, hemp fiber, other natural fibers, polyester-cotton fibers and other synthetic fibers. Hotel linen can be divided into many types.

Hotel linen is the first part of the guest’s vision as soon as the guest enters the door, and the part that directly contacts the guest. The fabric pattern and comfort of the hotel bedding and even the weight of the quilt and towel are also very important to the guest. How should the hotel choose the room bedding suitable for its own hotel?

The quality and quality of the bedding, the price of the bedding and the degree of washability all depend on the quality of the fabric. Good fabrics and poor fabrics are very different in terms of comfort, feel, appearance, washability, and price. The quality of the hotel fabric is mainly related to the grade of cotton yarn, yarn count density, and subsequent processing of the fabric. These three aspects are the main decisive factors for measuring the quality of fabrics.

1. The grade of cotton yarn

Cotton yarn is roughly divided into combing and carding. Several important indicators for testing cotton yarn are strength, twist, evenness, neps, hairiness and so on.

2. Yarn count density

A 40-meter-long yarn of a certain gram of cotton is called 40-count yarn, a 60-meter-long yarn is called 60 yarn, and a 80-meter-long yarn is called 80 yarn. It is not difficult to understand: the higher the count, the thinner the yarn. Generally speaking, the larger the yarn count, the finer the yarn, the more difficult it is to spin, the more processes, the higher the equipment requirements, and the higher the requirements for cotton quality, the higher the price per ton of yarn. Xinjiang high-quality long-staple cotton.

Third, the post-processing of the fabric

Usually refers to subsequent processes such as mercerizing and sizing. If the fabric is not mercerized, the shrinkage rate will be significantly increased, and the gloss will be significantly reduced, which will lead to a serious reduction in the service life of the bedding fabric. The main processes are desizing, singeing, mercerizing, bleaching, shaping and so on.
