Linen blanket

The linen blanket is a versatile bedding set. It will provide a comfortable sleep both in winter and summer. A blanket made of natural vegetable filler will warm you on a cool night and cool in the summer heat. Due to its good breathability, it absorbs the resulting moisture and allows the skin to breathe.

Flax is recognized worldwide as a luxury material. Blankets based on it are a novelty in the world of textile products. Every year, it is she who is preferred by an increasing number of Russian and foreign consumers.

Bedding manufacturers produce several varieties of linen blankets. They are classified according to the following criteria:

1. Sewing method. Products are sewn according to one of three options: quilted in parallel rows, "cassette" or embroidered with patterned stitching. The safest blanket is stitched in "cassettes". Unlike the other two options, it eliminates the risks of knocking the filler into a "pile".
2. Dimensions. Products are divided into two groups: one and a half and double.
3. Heat index. This parameter is indicated by the manufacturer on the packaging with marks (from 1 to 5). Blankets with index 1 are the "coolest". Mark 5 indicates the highest "warmth" values.

Thanks to this classification, it is possible to select a blanket of the required size with an optimal heat index.

A blanket with a linen filling is made using a specialized technology that allows you to preserve the fiber structure and all the beneficial qualities of the plant. Due to this, the bed product:

• has natural thermoregulation;
• protects a person from static electricity;
• absorbs excess moisture well (up to 12% of the weight of the blanket itself);
• has antibacterial properties;
• does not absorb unpleasant odors.

Linen blankets have many benefits. These products are durable and wear resistant. They are able to maintain their original appearance even after many washes and dryers.

Other advantages of linen blankets include:

• high strength indicators;
• aesthetics;
• light weight;
• no shrinkage;
• hygroscopicity.

Linen blankets also have disadvantages.

• The disadvantages include the high price of natural products. The high cost of such products is justified: a good product that will last more than one year cannot be cheap.
• Another drawback is the strong crushing of the fibers during the washing process. This minus is considered insignificant: during operation, the blanket is able to quickly straighten "on its own".
• Delicate care is also a disadvantage. If the prescribed rules are not followed, the product may soon lose its "marketable" appearance.

Some people call the linen blanket the bed "doctor" because the product has medicinal properties. Thus, plant fiber helps to neutralize radiation and harmful electromagnetic waves emanating from household appliances and electronics.

It also:

• prevents the development of skin diseases: dermatitis, irritation and allergic rashes;
• possesses wound healing properties (accelerates the healing process of abrasions, cuts, shallow wounds);
• inhibits the development of pathogens in bed;

• increases the natural defenses of the body;
• heals and rejuvenates the skin of the body and face.

In order for the blanket to retain its presentable appearance as long as possible and not lose its useful qualities and properties, it must be properly looked after.

A linen blanket will last a long time only with certain manipulations.

Care rules are as follows:

• It is recommended to shake the bedding before going to bed. This action will restore air circulation in the fiber, return the product to lightness and softness.
• After a night's sleep, the blanket needs to be straightened so that it "gets rid" of the accumulated moisture.
• It is recommended to ventilate bedding once a month in a dry and cool place for several hours.
• The product needs to be washed once a year. When washing in a machine, you should choose a gentle mode (water temperature up to 40 degrees). You also need to abandon spinning and forced drying in a drum. When washing, do not use products containing bleaching ingredients.
• It is best to dry the washed bedding on a horizontal surface, periodically turning it over. Ironing is highly undesirable.
• Storage of the product is permissible only in bags or covers made of natural fabric.

Following these simple rules will help preserve the aesthetics and quality of linen bedding for 5 years or more. If you are looking for a product that will last more than one year, make you sleep sound and healthy, and also “adjust” to the desired “climate” under the blanket, choose natural linen products. For a premium product, you will have to pay more than for synthetic counterparts. However, the purchase will pay off.

Linen fiber blankets have won the trust and respect of consumers all over the world. People who have chosen this particular natural bedding product note its hypoallergenic and medicinal properties. According to user reviews, linen blankets are “smart” products. They maintain a constant temperature in both hot summers and winters.

Also, many note that after regular use of the blanket, they became much smaller and easier to get sick with acute respiratory viral infections, diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract. This pattern is not accidental. A natural blanket promotes free air exchange, which prevents the risk of dust accumulation and the appearance of mites.

Especially happy with mom's products. They notice an improvement in the sleep of babies under a linen blanket, since overheating of the body or freezing of the crumbs is excluded under it. An important property is good moisture absorption and its natural excretion. Thanks to this quality, children do not sweat in the heat and do not suffer from skin rash.
