Beech Sheets Are Soft And Durable

Beech sheets are some of the most comfortable sheets in the world according to those who own them. They are made from the beech tree that grows in Europe. The fiber of the tree is made into Modal which is a durable fiber. Sheets made from this material are soft and keep their deep colors after being washed many times. Many of the sheet sets have features that are usually found in their European counterparts like button closures on pillow cases to prevent the pillow from falling out. Many people who are conscious of the environment buy beech sheets because they are a sustainable product like bamboo. Modal is made from the pulp of the tree by using a cellulose-based process.

Beech sheets are made in different styles such as jersey knit 100% Modal, sateen with 300 thread count, and jersey knit. 100% Modal jersey knit sheets have the feel of a well-worn tee shirt that is very soft. They are organic because they contain no pesticides or toxic chemicals. The colors are very bright in hot pink, purple, apple green, and other colors of black, white, cream, and others. They are made in sizes to fit twin, full, queen, king, and California king. Extra-long twin size is also available. The fitted sheets have a deep pocket on each corner to fit over thick mattresses such as Sealy and others.

Beech sheets are also made in a jersey style that is a blend of Modal and other materials. They are made in the same sizes as the 100% jersey sheets except that they are 70% Modal and 30% cotton blend. Although cheap jersey sheets stretch out of shape after being used for a short while, those with Modal hold their shape and do not stretch as much. The Modal blend sheets can be found on sale since they are being discontinued by Bed, Bath, and Beyond, one of the few places that sells Modal sheets.

When washing beech sheets, a few basic rules should be followed to maintain their new look. They should never be washed on hot setting as you may do with cotton. Wash them on a warm setting on the washing machine. Also, they should be dried on a medium setting.

Some very unique beech sheets are made in Switzerland and are sold as the Urban Collection. These sheets are made from Micro Modal that is beech wood that is turned into pulp and them into a fiber. The company then weaves the fiber into their deluxe sheet sets. They are made to regulate temperature and humidity to make them comfortable and cozy year round. All bedding is sold separately and not in sets. A fabric sample may be ordered with a deposit, and fabric is also sold by the yard. These high-end sheets are made in white, ivory, chocolate brown, and other colors.

These beech sheets are available in twin, full, queen, and king size fitted and flat sheets. There is also a variety of pillow cases and pillow shams for decorative pillows. The queen flat sheet sells for $407, while the queen fitted sheet retails for $420. Queen size pillow cases are also made in a size slighting bigger than standard at 21 by 31. Standard size measures 21 by 27. The queen size ones sell for $276 for a set. Another style made by Schlossberg is their Urban Collection-Lio. It is also 100% Micro Modal, but these sheets have a square-looking weave on the pillow cases while the sheets feature lines woven into the length of the sheet.

Beech sheets are sold online and may be found in boutiques that carry special items that are not mass produced.
