Hotel linen yarn count density How to check hotel linen count
How to judge the yarn count density of hotel linen and the count of hotel linen?
1. What is yarn count?
Explanation 1: Let’s first talk about the count, which is what we often see: 30, 40, 60, etc.! For example, some friends call 30 pieces 30S, which is the same, there is no difference! So what exactly is count? This is how I understand it: The count is the standard for the thickness of the yarn. For example, one tael of cotton can be made into 30 strands of 1-meter-long yarn, which is 30 strands; and one tael of cotton can be made into 40 strands of 1-meter-long yarn, which is 40 strands; 1 tael of cotton can be made into 60 strands. A 1 meter long yarn has a count of 60. In fact, the higher the yarn count, the finer the yarn. The thinner the fabric is made with such yarn, the softer and more comfortable the fabric will be. However, cloth with a high count requires high quality raw materials (cotton), and also requires higher requirements on yarn mills and textile weaving factories, so the cost of the cloth is relatively high.
Explanation 2: Yarn: the smaller the number, the thicker it is, the larger the number, the finer it is, fine-fine: 16S, 30S, 40S, 60S. Clothing generally uses 60-80S, and bedding uses 30S-60S.
Explanation 3: The yarn count is the basic unit that makes up the finished fabric. The number of the yarn count is inversely proportional to its thickness. The larger the number, the finer it is, and the corresponding quality requirements for the raw material (cotton) are also higher. The yarn count of bedding cloth is generally divided into 21, 30, 40, 60, and the rare 80 according to its thickness. Most common bedding products in the market are 40-count.
There is also a more special kind of cloth that is mixed with different yarn counts. For example, some satin fabrics have 60 warp threads and 40 weft threads. This kind of cloth can be said to be 60 threads or 60 threads. It can be said to be 40-count. If a piece of fabric is woven with cotton yarn of the same thickness, it can be directly described as 30-count or 40-count.
Is the higher the count, the better? Of course, thread count is a key indicator for evaluating the quality of bedding, but it is not absolute! In fact, the higher the yarn count, the finer the yarn. The thinner the fabric made with such yarn, the softer and more comfortable the fabric will be. For example, many bedding sellers say that their fabrics are 120 thread count. Buyers should beware. 80 thread count is very rare for bedding products, let alone 120 thread count, because 120 thread count is very thin. Fabrics that are too thin may not be suitable for bedding at all. At this time, beware of the seller being suspected of substituting the concept. Maybe he is talking about the warp and weft density rather than the count!
2. What is density
Explanation 1: Let me talk about the density of cloth. This is data that people don’t pay much attention to, but it is important! In the industry, cloth basically does not talk about count. They only talk about **multiply** (for example, 110*90, 128*68, 65*78, 133*72), because there are very few choices for count. Generally, there are , 30S and 40S, and 60S has very few applications. It can be said that 60S cloth is not suitable for bedding,
because it is too thin! There are not many factories in China that can make 80-count cloth. Don’t think that 80-count cloth is expensive because it is small. I have never seen it, I have only heard about it, and as far as I know, it is not available in China. Not yet, 80-count bedding products are out!
Explanation 2:
Warp and weft density: how many yarns are there horizontally and vertically in one inch (2.54 square centimeters), commonly used 30S yarn 68*68, 30S yarn 78*65, 40S yarn 110*90, 40S yarn 110*80, 40S yarn 90*90.
Combed: The total length of the stems is more than 29mm, which is very uniform, smooth and smooth.
Common combing: the stems are larger and smaller and uneven (thin ones are thin, thick ones are thick).
Pure cotton fabric:
Twill weave cotton: density is 133*72, 40*40
Plain weave cotton: density is 76*68 , 30*30, 100*90, 40*40
Explanation 3:
The warp and weft density refers to the number of warp and weft yarns arranged per square inch, as usually Saw it? 40×40/128×68? It means that the warp and weft yarns are 40 respectively, and the warp and weft density is 128×68. This is also an important technical indicator when purchasing bedding, because the choice of fabric count is very small, nothing more than 30, 40, 60, so bedding Under the premise of the quality of bedding products of the same count, the most important thing is to look at the density. The higher the density, the better! But it is important to remember that high branch counts lead to high density. It would be ridiculous if there are only 20 branches but are claimed to be high density.
