Suitability

Suitability mes Pillow-case size and suitability go hand-in-hand, depending on its purpose of use. Pillow-cases can typically be divided into single pillow-case and double pillow-case, the former typically measuring 48x74cm in terms of inner diameter; two are often found placed per bed. As for double pillow-cases, two must typically fit on 5 foot beds while 6 foot beds typically accommodate 48cm x 145 cm inner diameter cases respectively.

Pillowcase size should not only give people a comfortable night's rest, but should also promote body relaxation by relieving tension in shoulder and neck muscles during sleep; so when selecting the ideal pillowcase size take into consideration these points:

1. The Size of Bed: Single beds, double beds, children's beds and other types of beds come in various sizes; consequently their appropriate pillowscase sizes also vary, for instance 5-foot beds are typically fitted with 48cm pillowscases while 6 feet beds need larger 48x145cm cases to make up their inner diameter of 48x115 cm pillowscases for optimal use.
2. Quilt Size: The size of a pillowscase corresponds with that of its quilt counterpart in selecting appropriate specifications for it.
3. Pillowscase Size: this dimension should generally correspond with the height of a pillowscase and the overall dimensions must add 10 centimeters each way for length and width respectively.

2. Zipper Design: When considering pillowcases with zippers, its design and quality play a critical role in durability. A superior zipper should open and close smoothly without easily becoming jammed or stuck, thus guaranteeing long-term use for the pillowcase.

How to wash the pillowcase?

1.Because the pillowcase will be yellow after a long time, but for the yellow pillowcase and so on, wash away the spot marks. Before cleaning, it is best to be exposed to the sun for one to two hours, which is more effective in washing away the yellow marks.
2.After sun exposure, immediately soak the pillowcase, to thoroughly soak through the pillowcase stains, it is best to use warm water or hot water, put detergents such as washing powder together with soaking for more than an hour. After soaking through, whether it is hand-washed or machine-washed, wash it first with laundry detergent and other washing powder to wash away the basic sweat spots. Many laundry detergents will not help with long term sweat spots, while detergents and other detergents have the ability to remove grease and dirt, so then wash once more with detergent to wash away sebum accumulation on the pillowcase. If the stains are still stubborn, then find a brush, and then use detergent to brush a few times.
3.If the pillowcase material can be heat-resistant, then you can not use the method of the last two steps, instead of the boiling method. Put the detergent and pillowcase into the boiling water for a period of time, and then fish out the scrub or brush to see the effect of cleaning. If it does not achieve the effect, then put it in to continue to cook, you can repeat the above steps until satisfied.
4.Not commonly used pillowcase in a period of time after taking out to find that has become yellow, available white oil repeatedly scrubbing, yellow effect is very good. In the sun directly after the white electric oil cleaning.
Note: white oil is toxic to the human body, it is best to take gloves in the cleaning process, after cleaning, pillowcase must be in the open high enough time to let the white oil completely evaporate, it is best to rinse with water.
5.If the pillowcase is solid color or light color, and fabric dyeing firm, strong oxidant resistance, you can use bleach to soak or boil, this method is the most effective, can completely remove yellow. We need to be careful with the use of bleach, do not tolerate strong oxidant fabric, after bleaching may pillowcase clean scrap, those colorful pillowcase, after bleaching may be completely different.

As long as you don't use inferior raw materials, use advanced foaming formulas, eliminate the use of state regulations can not be used in the use of black materials, relying on our current mature all-water foaming technology, it is entirely possible to produce odourless memory foam pillows to meet market demand.
