Tested or organic bed linen
Sheets and towels certified to a residue-testing standard such as OEKO-TEX Standard 100, or certified organic.
Why it matters
Certifications such as OEKO-TEX Standard 100 test the finished fabric, down to the thread, against a list of restricted substances, which lowers skin exposure over a night’s sleep.
