I wonder if you have heard of the word “linen”? In general, it is a proper term for hotels, but it is strange that there is no grass on the cloth. Why do you call it cloth?
Linen is a general term for towels, tablecloths, bed sheets, pillowcases, etc. placed in guest rooms by the hotel housekeeping department. Hotel linen generally refers to almost everything related to “cloth” in modern hotels, including bedding, such as bedding, quilt cover, cotton quilt core, bed sheet, bedspread, pillow cover, pillow core, fitted sheet, bed skirt, bed tail pad, protective pad, towel products such as face towel, square towel, bath towel, floor towel, bathrobe, etc., as well as table cloth napkin, chair cover, platform skirt, shower curtain, etc.

1、 The difference between hotel linen and home textiles

Hotel linen pays attention to the control of the internal quality of the product. In terms of quality, due to the need to adapt to frequent industrial washing, hotel linen pays more attention to the internal quality indicators of the product. Quality deviation, breaking strength, water absorption, washing fastness and rubbing fastness are one of the basic indicators of whether the star hotel is used or not. Household textiles mainly focus on the appearance, flower shape and color.

The hotel linen presents the following characteristics:
1. Towel products have a relatively high square gram weight, more texture, fluffy and superior water absorption.
2. The color is mainly plain, the tone is more single than home textile, and the pursuit of simplicity and atmosphere.
3. Fabric products have high yarn count, high density, finer production, superior softness and better comfort in contact with skin.
4. The filling items of quilt pillow have high quality requirements, and pay attention to resilience, environmental protection and dust control to ensure no pollution in sleep.
5. The dyeing process is in line with the strict environmental protection index detection of the National Tourism Hotel Association. The materials are more exquisite and pay more attention to the environmental protection of dyes, so as to ensure the non pollution of products in contact with skin.

2、 Why are most of the hotel linen white?

In addition, have you found anything. When staying in hotels, whether high-grade or low-grade, we found that all hotels use white sheets, bedding and wool bath towels. Why?
1. Clean and tidy. Hotel bedding is used by many people. Using white can make everyone feel clean and tidy, and it is not easy to hide dirt. Let the check-in people do not have to worry about health problems. What dirt can be seen at a glance.
2. Avoid diversity. Everyone has different preferences. If you don’t use the same sheet color, you will be picky when you check in. What color do you like or not. All use one color to save the personalized screening process of occupants and avoid the loss of tourists.
3. Easy to clean. When cleaning, bleach will be used. No matter what stains, they will be clean as soon as they are bleached. Therefore, we found that there is no stain on all the sheets and bedding, which is all due to bleaching. If only washing powder is used, it is impossible to achieve this effect.
4. Foil effect. Most hotels and hotels have carpets in other colors. But the carpet is generally not too clean. Using white can not only set off that everything is clean, but also divert the attention of the occupants, because everyone likes to see clean things. In commercial design, white has high-level, scientific and technological images, and usually needs to be used with other colors. Pure white will give others a cold and severe feeling. Therefore, when using white, there will be some other colors, such as ivory white, rice white, milky white and apple white. In the color of living products and clothing, white is the main color that will always be popular, It can match any color.
