Linen Allergy-Friendly?
================================================================================
In the quest for a comfortable and healthy sleep environment, The Modern has introduced a range of linen bedding that offers numerous benefits for people with chemical sensitivities or allergies.
Firstly, it's worth noting that cotton and synthetic bedding on the market today may contain chemicals that can cause reactions, sensitivities, and allergies. This is where The Modern's linen bedding stands out, as it is naturally hypoallergenic and skin-friendly. Historically, linen has been used for bandages dating back to ancient Egyptians, a testament to its skin-friendly properties.
Linen is also known for its ability to absorb up to 20% of its own weight in water without feeling wet, inhibiting bacterial growth. This natural anti-bacterial and pathogen-resistant property makes linen an ideal choice for those seeking a clean and safe sleep environment.
The Modern supports various linen certifications to ensure their products meet high safety, hypoallergenic, and eco-friendly standards. The most notable is the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, Class 1 certification. This certification guarantees that the linen fabric is free of banned and regulated substances, ensuring sleep safety and hypoallergenic properties.
In addition to the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, The Modern's linen carries three key certifications:
- OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, Class 1: Certifies the fabric is free of harmful chemicals safe for sensitive skin and infants.
- GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard): Ensures organic growing and processing without harmful chemicals throughout the supply chain.
- Master of Flax Fibre (formerly European Flax): Guarantees natural, GMO-free flax grown in Belgium and France sustainably.
These combined certifications ensure The Modern's linen meets the highest safety, hypoallergenic, and eco-friendly standards.
Moreover, a regular washing routine is important to protect and treat bedding from dust mite allergens. Washing a duvet cover as often as sheets can help reduce dust mites, and using a duvet and duvet cover can help keep dust mites at bay. Linen responds well to frequent washing as a durable and long-lasting fabric that gets softer with each wash.
In conclusion, The Modern’s linen bedding offers a sensible option for those seeking a hypoallergenic and eco-friendly alternative to traditional bedding materials. With its OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class 1 certification, full organic and ethical sourcing backed by GOTS and Master of Flax certifications, and natural anti-bacterial properties, The Modern’s linen is a safe and comfortable choice for a better night's sleep.
