Fitted sheet cotton

For this fitted sheet we use the same certified organic cotton as for our Manufactum bedding. The sheets therefore fit perfectly with it, can of course also be used with any other bedding.
The cotton comes from a valley in southern Turkey. This does not sound spectacular at first, because in Turkey they have been growing cotton for 2,000 years. What is special, however, is that the cotton has probably been growing right here for a long time and does not have to be moved after a few years. This is necessary in conventional growing areas so that the soil can recover because cotton cultivation has removed many minerals and nutrients from it. The soil in this valley does not leach, however, because the rain in the surrounding mountains flushes out minerals and nutrients, providing replenishment naturally. From the growing area to the finished bed linen is then only a short distance: spinning, weaving and sewing are within a radius of only 40 kilometers.
