What is this fabric?

Microfiber is a material made up of the finest polymer fibers. In another way, it is also called microfiber. In the production of this fabric, polymers, polyesters and polyamide are used. As a result of the interweaving of these components, thin but strong synthetic threads are obtained. Microfiber was first created in Japan in the late 70s of the last century, its mass distribution began 10 years later. Today this fabric is made from various raw materials. Some types of materials include cotton, but it is extremely difficult to find cotton microfiber on the domestic market.

Many products are made from microfiber. These can be wardrobe items or home textiles. This material can be painted in various color shades, giving it a graceful appearance. Sleeping sets made of this fabric have numerous advantages, thanks to which more and more consumers prefer them every year.

Advantages and disadvantages

Microfiber bedding has a variety of colors, so that even the most demanding customer will be able to purchase linen in accordance with their preferences. In addition, the following advantages are inherent in such sleeping sets:

  • favorable cost - products made from synthetic materials are several times cheaper than from natural raw materials;
  • softness and smoothness - microfiber is pleasant to the body due to its silky and smooth texture;
  • good breathability - microfiber bedding promotes natural air circulation;
  • resistance to deformation - even with long and intensive use, the linen will not stretch or "shrink" during washing;
  • poor crease - thanks to this property, bed linen practically does not wrinkle when used; in addition, it does not need to be ironed after washing;
  • hygroscopicity - thin fibers of the material have a porous structure, due to which the fabric quickly absorbs excess moisture and evaporates it;
  • easy care - any dirt is quickly washed off the microfiber, after getting wet the fabric dries quickly;
  • the material is very tear-resistant; in addition, puffs, spools and clues that can instantly spoil the appearance of the sleeping set are not formed on it;

The disadvantages of microfiber are its "fear" of high temperatures, which is why bedding sets cannot be washed in too hot water or dried on various heat sources, for example, a battery, coil, heater. When ironing clothes, you should choose the "gentle" modes. Another disadvantage of fabric is its ability to accumulate static electricity.In addition, microfiber accumulates fat over time, which is why it can lose the qualities declared by the manufacturer. The service life of microfiber kits is 2 to 5 years.

Selection rules

When choosing a sleeping set for a bed, you should refuse to purchase too cheap products from unknown brands. The fact is that unscrupulous manufacturers, in order to reduce the cost of products, can use not microfiber, but other synthetic fibers in which there are no pores. As a result, such kits will be deprived of the smoothness and softness that microfibers inherent in. And also in the production of low-quality textiles, toxic dyes can be used. It should be noted that making high quality microfiber bedding sets in artisanal conditions is impossible. By purchasing cheap products of unknown origin, the consumer runs the risk of facing a number of problems:

  • the laundry exudes an unpleasant odor;
  • the kit is colored unevenly;
  • when washing, the products fade;
  • the laundry changed its shape when washed in an acceptable temperature regime;
  • the use of a sleeping set causes allergic reactions.

To avoid these consequences, you should carefully inspect the purchased textiles. Signs of a poor-quality product are as follows:

  • blurry and indistinct pattern;
  • uneven stitching;
  • knock-out threads.

When choosing a product, you must carefully study the label. It should contain detailed information about the composition of the product, packaging, recommendations for care and washing, as well as information about the manufacturer (contact information: phone numbers, address).

Care

In order for a microfiber sleeping set to serve for more than one year, delighting its owners with its pristine appearance, it is important to properly care for it. To do this, you should adhere to the following recommendations:

  • the products are washed by hand or in the drum of the washing machine with a preselected “gentle” mode;
  • the water temperature should not exceed +40 degrees;
  • it is advisable to abandon the use of conditioners and bleaching agents, because these compositions are able to "clog" the pores of the material;
  • the kit must be dried naturally by hanging it indoors or outdoors;
  • products are allowed to be ironed at a minimum temperature.

If the above recommendations are followed, the linen will retain its original consumer qualities for 5 years.
