“Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.”
01 / PERKAL OR SATIN
Percale and Satin is a way of weaving. With SUITE702, both qualities are made of high-quality organic cotton. Percale is a so-called symmetrical bond. Each thread goes over and under 1 single other thread. The Perkal of SUITE702 has a thread count of 300TC. This way of weaving ensures that the material feels smooth, crispy and also a bit cooler. It is therefore also called hotel quality. A satin weave is a way of weaving in which a thread does not go over and under 1 thread but over at least 3 threads. This allows the yarns to be woven even closer together with a satin weave. SUITE702 Satin has a thread count of 400TC. This makes it fall extra smoothly and it has a luxurious shiny appearance.
02 / THREAD COUNT
The number of threads per square inch, also called thread density or thread count, is an important measure of the quality of textiles. Most bedding is 150-180 thread count. The Percale cotton of SUITE702 has a thread count of 300. The Cotton Satin has a thread count of 400. Only long-fiber high-quality cotton fibers can spin super thin yarn. With these thin yarns you can weave the threads very closely together. The cotton used for SUITE702 is long-fiber and is comparable to the quality of Egyptian cotton, but organic.
