Why does my bed linen feel so wonderful?
Our customers tell us time and again that Undercover's Tencel bed linen feels like heaven. Half of our orders come from existing customers.
Here are some reviews from our customers on Trustpilot :
"Wonderful quality, so a wonderful sleeping experience! I ordered the duvet cover with pillows. The fitted sheet was a must as a complement, now I feel like I'm in seventh heaven!" Simone
"The material is so pleasant on the skin! Top quality and very nice design. I love this bed linen! I have already ordered it twice." Jennifer
What is our secret recipe?
We spent many months searching for the perfect formula for our Tencel bed linen. We visited countless production facilities in Portugal, washed and tested different fabrics.
Our aim: bed linen that feels particularly soft and fresh, but not silky smooth. A tricky task, as it turns out. Many satin and 100% Tencel fabrics offer this "slippery" feeling that we don't like, and pure percale cotton or linen often becomes scratchy and hard over time. For our formula, we therefore combine 50% Tencel with 50% long-staple, high-quality cotton.
Tencel has numerous advantages in terms of comfort, breathability and environmental friendliness (see here for more information), and the added cotton gives the sheets a certain freshness and structure that a 100% Tencel fabric would lack. We have re-examined and questioned the formula several times over the years. We always came to the conclusion that the combination couldn't be better and our customers seem to agree. And now the fabric has stood the test of time (our first sheets were five years ago!)
