- Smart Design: The sizing cleverly accounts for shrinkage, a professional detail many brands overlook.
- Initial Feel: Being a true percale, it's quite crisp at first but softens beautifully with washing.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View B&B in Padstow, Cornwall, was looking to refresh their guest rooms and improve online reviews which often mentioned room comfort. They decided to replace their old polycotton linens with the Mitre Cairo cotton range across all their single beds.
"The difference was immediate. Guests started mentioning how comfortable the beds were, and the sheets just feel so much more luxurious. They're also holding up brilliantly to our daily laundry routine, which was a big worry for us."
Robert Davies – Proprietor
Within three months, The Harbour View saw a 20% rise in positive reviews specifically mentioning 'bedding' or 'comfort'.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always give the sheets a wash before their first use to soften the cotton fibres.
- Don't worry if it looks a little big at first; it is intentionally oversized to ensure a perfect fit after a few wash-and-dry cycles.
- The deep 33cm pocket is designed to stretch easily over both standard and deeper commercial mattresses without a struggle.
Keeping It Going
- For best results and hygiene, wash at 60°C. This effectively cleans whilst being gentle on the fabric.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the cotton fibres and reduce their natural breathability and absorbency.
- Tumble dry on a medium setting and remove promptly to minimise creasing and save on ironing time.
- Rotate your stock of sheets regularly to ensure even wear and tear, prolonging the life of your entire collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What exactly is cotton percale?
A: It's a type of closely woven 100% cotton that has a crisp, cool feel and a smooth matte finish. It's famous in hospitality for being both highly durable and breathable.
Q: Will this single fitted cotton bed sheet 190 x 90cm fit my bed?
A: Yes, it's designed specifically to fit a standard UK single bed, which measures 190cm x 90cm (or 3ft wide).
Q: How deep is the fitted sheet's pocket?
A: It has a generous 33cm (13 inch) deep box, making it suitable for most standard and even deeper commercial mattresses.
Q: Why does the new sheet seem bigger than my mattress?
A: It's intentionally oversized to allow for the 4-10% natural shrinkage of cotton that occurs during the first few washes, ensuring a perfect, snug fit for its entire life.

A: Yes, it's specifically designed and manufactured for the commercial hospitality industry, built to withstand frequent laundering while maintaining its comfort.

A: Yes, the Mitre Cairo range is available in sizes from single all the way up to super king to suit your business needs.

Explore more from Mitre ComfortWhat Makes Cotton Percale the Professional's Choice?
Ever wondered what gives hotel sheets that distinctively crisp, cool feel? It's often down to a percale weave. Think of it like a simple, tight criss-cross pattern in the fabric – one thread over, one thread under. This creates a smooth, matte finish that's incredibly breathable, helping to wick away moisture and keep guests comfortable all night long. Unlike silkier weaves like sateen, percale is more like your favourite high-quality cotton shirt: it's durable, cool to the touch, and just gets softer and more inviting with every single wash. It's the perfect weave for delivering comfort and longevity.
