I want soft bedding. Which material should I choose?

There is nothing nicer than crawling under a wonderfully soft blanket after a long day. You feel the bedding glide silkily over your skin. Pure indulgence. Do you dream of bedding that is as cuddly as a teddy bear? 🧸 In this blog you will read which materials are the very softest.

What is the softest material for a duvet cover?

Cotton sateen is the softest material for a duvet cover. This fabric is one hundred percent cotton woven in a special sateen weave. Sateen refers to the way the fabric is woven. In a sateen weave the threads are placed very close together. For context, standard hotel bedding is woven at a thread count of 200 TC, while Cloudpillo cotton sateen bedding has a thread count of no less than 300 TC. Softer than soft.

All the benefits of cotton sateen bedding at a glance:

✔️ Feels wonderfully soft

✔️ Breathable and moisture regulating

✔️ Cool in summer, warm in winter

✔️ Hypoallergenic and antibacterial

✔️ Luxurious look for your bedroom

These materials are also very soft

Besides cotton sateen there are many other soft fabrics. Think of tencel lyocell, bamboo, percale, or a flannel duvet cover. All of these fabrics are supremely soft and keep you nicely warm in winter. But they are not all equally breathable or suitable for summer. For example, a flannel duvet is often too warm in summer. A cotton sateen duvet cover on the other hand is very cooling. The fabric is highly breathable and temperature regulating. In addition, cotton sateen is antibacterial and hypoallergenic, ideal for people with sensitive skin or allergies. We are fans.

Soft bedding equals a good night sleep

It is not a myth, soft bedding contributes to better sleep quality. Why? The softness of the fabric helps you relax. It gives you a pleasant and safe feeling. More importantly, soft bedding is good for your health. Soft bedding often has a high thread count, which makes it harder for bacteria and allergens to penetrate. And the higher the thread count, the better the quality. Also nice.

Make your bed super fast with the three sided zip closure

Cloudpillo duvet covers are not only very soft but also super convenient to use. They have a smart zip on three sides so you can insert your duvet in no time. No crawling inside the cover or endless tugging. Simply spread the cover over your bed, place the duvet inside, and zip it closed. Ideal.
