Home Source Expands Sheet Program
By Michele SanFilippo -- Home Textiles Today, 9/12/2005
New York — Home Source International has expanded its Solutions sheet program with two new blended cotton products as part of its introductions for the upcoming New York Home Textiles Market.
The blended Solutions items are a cotton/soybean sheet that is 60 percent cotton, 40 percent soybean protein fiber; and a cotton/silk sheet that is 75 percent cotton, 25 percent filament silk. Both sheets are sold as sets in a 300-count construction.
The cotton/soybean sheet is designed to be cool in summer and warm in winter. According to executives, the sheet offers “all the attributes of natural fibers with superior physical properties of synthetic fibers.”
“Basically we are taking cotton and making it better,” said Phyllis Moore, vice president of bed sourcing at Home Source International. “I think the trend of natural fibers is here to stay.”
