FAQs
What is a "Draw Sheet" and how is it used?
A draw sheet is a specialized medical bed sheet placed horizontally across the center of the mattress (usually over the fitted sheet). It serves two critical purposes: it protects the primary bedding from fluids and soiling, and it provides nursing staff with a sturdy fabric grip to safely reposition or transfer bedbound patients without causing skin shear.
What is the difference between Muslin and Duraknit sheets?
Muslin is a highly economical, lightweight woven cotton blend perfect for high-turnover environments where linens are changed frequently. Duraknit, on the other hand, is a heavy-duty, stretchable knitted fabric designed to conform perfectly to adjustable hospital beds. It resists wrinkling, which is vital for preventing pressure ulcers in long-term care patients.
Can your hospital sheets withstand rigorous commercial laundering?
Yes. Our reusable healthcare linens (including T130, T180, Muslin, and Duraknit options) are specifically engineered to endure hundreds of high-heat industrial washing and drying cycles. They feature reinforced stitching and durable cotton/poly blends to resist shrinkage and pilling over time.
Do you offer disposable bedding for infection control?
Absolutely. For emergency rooms, outpatient surgical centers, and strict isolation wards, we carry single-use, non-woven flat sheets and pillowcases. These disposable options ensure immediate room turnover and maximum infection control support.
What thread count is recommended for medical facilities?
While hotels often look for T250 or higher, the standard for healthcare is T130 to T180. These thread counts provide the perfect balance: they are breathable for patient comfort, highly durable against harsh chemicals, and fast-drying to prevent bottlenecks in your facility's laundry operations.
Are your fitted sheets compatible with articulating hospital beds?
Yes. Our fitted contour sheets are designed with deep pockets and durable elastic to stay secure on medical beds, even when the head or foot sections are raised. For the best fit on highly adjustable beds, we highly recommend our Duraknit contour sheets.
