Are you getting true 1000, 1200 & 1500 thread count?
We are proud to offer a huge range of bed linen, from duvet covers and pillowcases to flat and fitted sheets. Our large collection includes 200 thread count and 400 thread count cotton sheets, as well as our most luxurious bed linen of all; the 1000, 1200 & 1500 thread count range.

Although an exceptionally high-end product, 1000, 1200 & 1500 thread count bedding can be available in the majority of home stores around the country, so it’s easy for us to enjoy the extravagant experience of sleeping in thick, crisp cotton. Or so we thought. A recent BBC investigation into high thread count bedding available on the high street has found that all may not be quite as it seems. The BBC investigation found that some of the biggest names in retailing count each yarn within the thread count, essentially marketing a fabric as 1000 thread count when it is actually comprised of 500 double-ply threads. The investigation discovered that one sheet marketed as 1200 thread count was in fact found to have only 346 threads per inch.

What is thread count?
The term ‘thread count’ refers to the number of threads woven together to make one square inch of fabric. Both the vertical and horizontal threads within the square are counted. As a general rule, the more threads within the square inch, the denser the fabric. A dense, thick fabric is smoother, stronger and lasts longer than low thread count fabrics and offers incredible resistance against dust mites. Each thread can be made from multiple ultra-fine strands of cotton to produce a stronger yarn, but whether your thread is made from two strands or ten, when it comes to counting the threads, the thread is still just that: one thread.

We can ensure the highest quality and true thread counts without twisted yarns. All of our 1000, 1200 & 1500 thread count sheets have exactly that: single, non-twisted threads per square inch of cotton, making our high thread count bedding exceptionally luxurious.
