Bianca | Recycled Cotton Bamboo Sheet Set | Double | Charcoal

A double size sheet set woven from a blend of 25% recycled cotton, 30% cotton and 45% bamboo in a percale weave. Percale is a plain weave construction that produces a crisp, smooth feel and wears well with repeated washing — a practical choice for everyday use.

The bamboo component contributes breathability and moisture-wicking properties. The cotton component adds structure and durability. The recycled cotton content reduces the amount of virgin fibre used in production.

Cuffed and piped finish on the flat sheet and pillowcases. The fitted sheet has a 40cm wall depth, suitable for most standard and deeper mattresses. This listing is the Charcoal colourway, Double size. The set includes 1 flat sheet, 1 fitted sheet and 2 standard pillowcases.

Frequently asked

Is this bamboo cotton blend good for dust mite allergy sufferers?
While no sheet fabric is a substitute for dust mite encasements, bamboo's breathability and moisture-wicking properties make it a comfortable choice for allergy-aware sleepers. Bamboo helps regulate temperature and reduce excess moisture — conditions that dust mites thrive in. For meaningful allergen reduction, pairing these sheets with a dust mite proof mattress encasement is the most effective step you can take.

What does the research say about sheets and dust mite allergies?
Published research consistently shows that allergen levels in bedding track overall bedroom allergen levels — meaning your sheets are part of the broader picture, not the whole answer. A Cochrane review found that single interventions in isolation show weaker results, while more recent research found that a comprehensive approach — combining mattress and pillow encasements, regular washing, humidity control and air purification — was associated with significantly greater odds of symptom improvement. Fabric choice alone is unlikely to make a meaningful difference without these other measures in place.

What's the single most important step for an allergy-aware bedroom?
Research points consistently to a comprehensive approach rather than any single product. The most effective setup typically includes:

• Dust mite encasements for your mattress, pillows and quilt
• Regular washing of all bedding
• A dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity below 50%
• An air purifier to reduce airborne allergen particles
• Allergen cleaning products for surfaces that can't be washed frequently
