- Practical Colour: The deep plum is stylish and more forgiving of small marks than white.
- Material Feel: It's very soft, but distinct from cotton, which traditionalists may notice.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Wolds View, a charming B&B in Pocklington, East Yorkshire, was looking to refresh its four guest rooms. They needed bedding that was not only comfortable and stylish but could also handle their high occupancy rates and quick turnarounds without showing wear.
"The plum colour is just gorgeous and really modernised the rooms overnight. Our housekeeper is thrilled with how quickly they dry – it's made a huge difference to her workload on busy changeover days and reduced our reliance on the tumble dryer."
Robert Davies – Owner
The B&B has reduced its laundry drying time by an estimated 30%, allowing them to manage housekeeping with a smaller linen inventory and greater efficiency.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always give the pillowcases a wash before their first use to maximise softness.
- Simply slip over any standard UK pillow for a perfect, snug fit thanks to the housewife flap.
- Pair with a crisp white sheet to make the opal plum colour really stand out.
- Consider ordering with the matching Mitre Essentials duvet covers for a seamless look.
Keeping It Going
- Wash with similar colours on a standard cycle to keep the plum shade rich and vibrant.
- Tumble dry on a low setting or line dry – they’ll be ready in a flash!
- There's no need for fabric softener, which can clog the microfibres over time.

Explore more from Mitre EssentialsWhat Makes Microfibre a Housekeeping Hero?
Ever wondered what 'microfibre' really means for your laundry routine? Think of it like the difference between a classic cotton towel and modern sportswear. Cotton fibres are natural and absorbent, but they hold onto water for a long time. Microfibre, on the other hand, is made from thousands of incredibly fine synthetic threads woven together.
Because these threads are so fine and don't absorb water internally, moisture sits on the surface and evaporates incredibly quickly. For a busy hotel or B&B, this is a huge advantage. A commercial microfibre pillowcase opal plum washed in the morning can be dry, fresh, and ready for the next guest's bed that same afternoon, drastically cutting down on drying times and energy costs. It's the secret to a faster, more efficient laundry cycle.
Who Should Buy This?
- Boutique Hotels & Guesthouses: Introduce a sophisticated pop of colour and comfort that guests will remember and appreciate.
- Bed & Breakfasts: Perfect for owners who need durable, fast-drying linens for those quick room turnarounds.
- Serviced Apartments: Offer a homely yet professional touch that withstands frequent laundering and long-term use.
- Holiday Let Management: A cost-effective way to provide high-quality, long-lasting bedding across multiple properties.
