New Zealand
Hotel Linen and Towel Supplier for New Zealand
We supply sheets, quilt covers and towels to hotels, hospitals, care homes and laundries in New Zealand. Some of that linen sits in stock here. The rest is made for the order and comes by sea from Pakistan.
New Zealand is a smaller market than Australia, so the stock we hold here is smaller. Most of what we send is made for the order.

The buyers here run rooms, wards and laundries.
- Hotels, motels and lodges across NZ
- Serviced apartments
- Hospitals and aged care homes
- Commercial laundries
- Supermarkets, for packed and labelled goods
- Wholesale buyers and hospitality suppliers, who resell into NZ properties
If you run several sites, we can hold one specification and make every order to it. That keeps one bed size looking the same in every building.
Buying from stock, or buying a container
Both routes are open to a New Zealand buyer, and the quantity decides which one fits.
The stock route suits a small order. We hold linen and towels in the country, and they can leave the warehouse in a quantity a container order would never allow.
The stock here is limited. Sizes and colours depend on what came in last. Check what is on hand with us before you commit to it.
The production route suits a planned bulk order. You send the specification, we make the goods and ship them to NZ from Pakistan.
Your specification stays with us after the first order. A second order is made to the same numbers. It then goes into rotation with the first one.
What you specify on a New Zealand order
Everything that changes the product is your choice.
| Choice | Options |
|---|---|
| Fabric | 100% cotton, polycotton in 50/50, 60/40, 40/60, 65/35 or 80/20, or polyester microfibre |
| Weave | Plain percale, sateen, satin stripe, dobby or jacquard |
| Thread count | T130, T144, T180, T200, T250, T300, T400 and above on flat sheets |
| Towel weight | 400 to 700 GSM on bath towels and hand towels |
| Colour | White, or a solid colour matched to your Pantone shade |
| Size | Cut to the measurements you give us |
| Label and packing | Your own label, in poly bag, bundle or carton |
The product pages carry the full choice list. See bed linen, bath linen, kitchen linen and healthcare linen, including hospital bed sheets and draw sheets.
The words New Zealand buyers use
We work with the local words, so nothing is lost between your tender and our quote.
| Word | What it means |
|---|---|
| Duvet cover or quilt cover | The same product under two names. Doona is the Australian word and we rarely see it here. See duvet and quilt covers. |
| Manchester | A retail word for bed linen, still seen in shops. |
| King single | A single bed in a longer and wider size, listed apart from a standard single. |
| Face cloth | The small face towel, cut square. Australians say face washer. See face towels. |
| Pillow slip | A pillowcase. See pillowcases for the housewife and oxford styles. |
Bed names run from smallest to largest as single, king single, double, queen, king and super king. Send the measurements with the names, because the mattress depth decides the fit of a fitted sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions
How small can a New Zealand order be?
That depends on the stock. If we hold the item here, we can send a smaller quantity from it. Ask us what is in the warehouse and we will confirm what can go out.
How do you match the linen already in our rotation?
Send one piece of each item. A sample gives the closest match, because we can check the cloth and the construction. If you have none, we quote from your written specification.
Can you meet the test reports a New Zealand tender asks for?
Tell us the standard or test report your market needs, and we arrange it with your order.
Do you supply hospital and aged care linen too?
Yes. We make hospital bed sheets and draw sheets on the same lines as our hotel linen. Colour is white or your Pantone shade.
Send us your item list, sizes and quantity. We will tell you what is on the shelf here, and what we would make for you.
