FAQs
Is this sheet suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, being made from 100% pure cotton, it is hypoallergenic and generally well-tolerated by those with sensitive skin.
Can I use this sheet with a mattress topper?
Absolutely. The 33cm deep pocket is specifically designed to accommodate standard mattresses combined with thick mattress toppers.
Does the Cairo sheet come with pillowcases?
This product listing is for the fitted sheet only; matching pillowcases should be purchased separately.
Is the material prone to pilling?
Cotton percale is less prone to pilling than synthetic blends if washed and dried according to the care instructions.
How should I store the sheet?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the white fabric.
Can this be ironed?
Yes, for a crisp hotel finish, you can iron the sheet on a medium cotton setting while it is still slightly damp.
Troubleshooting
Sheet feels slightly stiff after initial wash
Cotton percale softens with every wash cycle. Using a fabric conditioner can help accelerate the softening process.
Sheet is wrinkled after drying
Remove the sheet from the dryer before it is bone dry. Smooth the sheet flat while it is still slightly warm to eliminate major creases.
Sheet does not stay tight on the corners
Ensure that your mattress is not smaller than a standard double; if the mattress is thin, consider using a mattress suspender or corner strap.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, identify the long sides of the sheet and pull the elasticated corners over the mattress, ensuring each corner is seated firmly underneath. The Cairo fitted sheet is fully compatible with standard UK double-sized mattresses measuring approximately 135cm x 190cm, with enough tolerance for toppers. For care, machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent. To minimize wrinkling, remove from the dryer while slightly damp and shake out before folding or placing on the bed. Do not use bleach, as this will compromise the integrity of the pure cotton weave.
