Percal is a fabric that owes its name to the Persian name for cloth: Pargalah. And this fabric is just as fine as a cloth: it is densely woven in plain weave, yet has a light grammage and a beautiful sheen.
We'll explain to you below what else it has to offer.
Lebenskleidung organic Percal – what you need to know about it
Percal is a material that is durable and has a very high wearing comfort. With us you get it with 100% organic cotton and without further bells and whistles.
Percal is breathable and cooling - and therefore not so far away from the linen, just made of cotton. Because of these properties you can use it especially for your summer bed linen or airy throws.
We currently offer organic Percal in three colours that are unagitated and leave plenty of room for more eye-catching accessories. With them you always make the right choice.
At first glance you can easily confuse percale with batiste - but it is much more densely woven and therefore much more durable!
Percal is available in different variations. A real luxury is the Mako percal made of Egyptian cotton, which is one of the most valuable in the world. Down percal, on the other hand, is a so-called bulk material, which is filled with down and is needed for duvets.
Percal can be washed up to 60°. We advise against this, however, since our ecological awareness naturally reaches into the washing machine and in most cases it is sufficient to wash the laundry at 30° or 40°.
