MUMBAI, INDIA - Indo Count Industries, now the fourth largest supplier of sheets to the U.S. market, debuted several new sheeting and top of bed introductions with an emphasis on chambray at Heimtextil earlier this month.
     Classic Chambray is a 200-count, all-cotton construction. The plain weave sheet features a white warp and a colored filling of combed fibers.
     End-on-end chambray is also a 200-count cotton with threads woven in two different colors to provide an irregular effect. The sheet features high-twist, vat-dyed yarns.
     Pin Point Chambray is a 300-count cotton with two warp yarns running in parallel - one of them a heavier, softly-spun and bulky filling yarn that gives the effect of a poplin/oxford mix.
     Faux Wood Chambray is a 270-count cotton with the opaque feeling of a twill.
     All are available in sheet and/or duvet sets.
