About  Modal Sheets & Bedding

Soft as silk, even cooler than cotton, and long lasting (with care), Micro Modal® is becoming very popular as a bed linen. You will find exceptional examples of this fabric at J Renee in the incredible Manor bedding from Sferra, Schlossberg's Lio, Knox and Solid Modal Beechwood, and several offerings from St. Geneve.  You also will want to look at SDH's Legna Lyocell sheets, towels, and bedding as they are also a wood fiber bedding product.  You will find all of these products here:  Modal & Lyocell Sheets & Bedding

Keep in mind that while the Schlossberg, St. Geneve and the Sferra sheets & bedding are Modal fabrics, they are distinctly different.  Just as in cotton sheeting, the way the Modal fabric is produced and finished can have a profound impact on the end bedding product.  We have seen some rather poor examples of Modal sheets and can say from experience that they have a long way to go to get to Schlossberg, St. Geneve or Sferra standards.  Like just about anything else in life, you get what you pay for, and this goes doubly so for Modal bedding.

Also, don't think of this wonder fiber as being just for sheets.  Modal also makes for splendid Duvet Cover and shams.  Here in Tucson it's great to have a beautiful, lightweight, and breathable fabric for a duvet cover in the summer.  Modal fabric is also very easy to care for, and as with any natural fiber it does best on low heat both in the washer and the dryer.

Micro Modal® is a incredibly soft, light and airy fabric made from beech wood cellulose. Most of our line's Modal threads are made in Austria, and is then woven in Italy , Sweden, or Germany.  Because Modal is a natural fibre, Micro Modal® breathes 50% better than cotton, and remains soft and silky even after numerous machine washings when cared for properly.

The secret to the Modal fibers success is pure beech wood. The cellulose produced is extracted from indigenous woods and used for the production of micro Modal. The quality is guaranteed through the control of the whole manufacturing process – from wood to fibre. The standard of the raw material is decisive for the quality and makes Micro Modal so unmistakable.

Micro Modal Textiles are exceptionally light in terms of the structure. Ten thousand meters of this micro fibre will weigh only one single gram. The low fibre stiffness of Micro Modal makes it a natural softening agent.
