However, for newborns, it is recommended to use a tightly fitted sheet and ensure the sleeping environment is safe and free from loose bedding.

Does the set include a duvet insert?

The 200 thread count refers to the number of yarns woven into a single square inch of fabric. For this product, it's specifically 200 single ply (40s) yarns, woven in a plain percale weave, which contributes to its durability and crisp feel.
What does OEKO-TEX certified mean?

Troubleshooting
Duvet cover doesn't fit duvet well
Verify that the duvet insert is the correct size for a cot bed (typically 100x135cm). Ensure the duvet cover is fully opened and the insert is positioned correctly inside before fastening.
Fitted sheet slips off the mattress
Ensure the mattress is not excessively worn or too thin for the sheet depth. Check that the elasticated edges are pulled fully under all sides of the mattress. For extra security, mattress retainers can be used.
Fabric feels less soft after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade cotton fibres over time. Use a low heat setting for tumble drying and consider ironing on a medium setting while slightly damp to restore smoothness. Repeated washing actually enhances the softness of this particular cotton.
Colour appears faded
Wash the bedding inside out and on a moderate temperature (40°C is recommended). Avoid direct sunlight exposure when drying to preserve colour vibrancy.
