How to Care for Your Cotton Bedsheets

At ROSTYA, we believe that great sleep starts with great fabric — and natural cotton is at the heart of everything we make. To keep your bedsheets feeling soft, fresh, and long-lasting, a little care goes a long way.

1. Wash Before First Use

Always wash your cotton bedsheets before using them for the first time. This removes any residual finishing agents and softens the fabric naturally.

2. Use Mild Detergent

Choose a gentle, pH-neutral detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can weaken cotton fibres and cause fading over time.

3. Wash in Cold or Lukewarm Water

Hot water can cause cotton to shrink. Wash at 30–40°C for best results. A gentle machine cycle or hand wash works perfectly.

4. Avoid Over-Drying

Remove sheets from the dryer while slightly damp, or air-dry in the shade. Direct sunlight for extended periods can fade colours and weaken fibres.

5. Iron on Medium Heat

If you prefer crisp sheets, iron on a medium setting while slightly damp. For a relaxed look, simply fold and store — cotton naturally softens with each wash.

6. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

Fold your sheets neatly and store in a breathable cotton bag or linen cupboard. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap moisture.

With the right care, your ROSTYA cotton bedsheets will stay beautiful wash after wash — a worthy investment in your everyday comfort.
