The Story Behind Our Linen
When it comes to linen bedding, there’s nothing quite like the effortless luxury of linen. It’s soft yet durable, breathable yet cozy, and only gets better with time. At Linen Social, we’re passionate about creating high-quality linen bedding that feels as good as it looks. But what makes our linen so special? Let’s dive in.
Why Choose Linen Bedding?
If you’ve ever slept in linen, you’ll know—it’s a game-changer. Unlike other fabrics, linen is naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating, meaning it keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter (the best of both world’s huh!). It also has a beautifully relaxed texture that gives your bed that effortless, undone look (without any actual effort). Plus, the more you use it, the softer it gets—talk about an investment in better sleep!
Is Our Linen Eco-Friendly?
Absolutely! One of the many reasons we’re so passionate about linen is its sustainability. Natural French linen is produced without the use of any pesticides and requires far fewer resources to grow and manufacture compared to other textiles. It’s also 100% recyclable and biodegradable, making it one of the most environmentally friendly bedding choices out there.
By choosing linen, you’re not only investing in quality bedding—you’re also making a conscious choice for the planet.
Understanding Thread Count and GSM - What Does It Actually Mean?
When shopping for bedding, you might have come across the term ‘thread count.’ While high thread counts are often associated with quality in cotton sheets, linen plays by different rules. Instead of thread count, linen is measured by GSM (grams per square meter)—a measurement of fabric weight and density.
Our linen sits at the perfect mid-range GSM, offering the ideal balance between breathability and durability. It’s lightweight enough to keep you cool but heavy enough to drape beautifully over your bed. So, instead of chasing a high thread count, think about how the fabric feels, looks, and performs over time.
Abiding by Eco-Friendly Industry Standards
We know that peace of mind is just as important as comfort when it comes to bedding. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of sustainability and ethical production practices. That’s why our linen is certified by OEKO-TEX Standard 100, meaning it has been rigorously tested and proven to be free from harmful substances.
We have also received our EUROPEAN FLAX® certificate, which guarantees the quality of our linen. Our linen fabrics range in GSM (grams per square meter) from 165 to 450, offering versatility and durability without compromising on sustainability.
What does this mean for you? It means you can sleep soundly knowing your bedding is safe, sustainable, and made with care.
