Hospital Bed Sheets in Bulk for Wards, Care Homes and Laundries

Will the sheet stay on a profiling bed?

That depends on the figures you send. A profiling bed changes shape when it is adjusted. So tell us the beds are profiling, and send the pocket depth you want.

Measure the mattress as it sits on the frame, with any protector already on it. Send the length, the width and the depth together. A shallower pocket gives the corners less to hold.

If a ward holds beds of more than one make, send the figures for each. We quote them as separate lines, not as one average size.

How do you set colour coding across departments?

By naming the shade on each line. We weave sheets in white, or in a solid shade matched to your Pantone reference. A ward, a theatre store and a day unit can each hold a colour of its own.

The coding system is yours. Put the Pantone reference against every line. We keep that reference on your specification file, so the next order matches the stock you already hold.

There is a cost. The more shades you run, the more stock each department carries on its own. A sheet in the wrong colour cannot cover a bed somewhere else.

What does your wash cycle change on the order?

The fabric blend on each line. Tell us how the hospital sheets are washed, dried and finished on your sites. Say whether you do that in house or use a contract laundry.

We then set the blend against your process, not against a figure we pick. If you are weighing cotton against a polyester share, the flat sheet page works through what each blend gives you.

Quantity is the second thing to settle. Count the sets each bed needs while others are away being washed. Order against that count, not against the bed list alone.

Does a care home order read the same as a hospital order?

Only if you write it that way. One order can carry two standards, so resident room sheets need not match the sheets on ward beds.

A room that should feel domestic may take a softer fabric, a finer thread count or a shade of its own. If every bed on site should draw from one pool of stock, put laundry life and matching first.

If you supply both kinds of site, send both standards together. We quote each line on its own figures.

Who orders hospital bed linen in bulk?

Four kinds of buyer, and each one writes its own figures. Bulk hospital sheets are quoted against the bed list on site.

• Hospitals and clinics, ordering against the bed list for their wards and treatment rooms.
• Care home and nursing home groups, fitting out resident rooms.
• Commercial laundries, carrying stock for the healthcare sites they serve.
• Medical distributors, selling the sheets on under a label of their own.

Do you need a standard or a test report?

Tell us the standard or test report your market needs, and we arrange it with your order.

Send that request with your specification while we are quoting, not after the sheets are woven. The goods and the paperwork are then prepared together.

What else goes on the ward linen order?

The rest of the bed, made to the same specification. We weave our pillowcases and duvet covers in the same fabrics, counts and shades, so one file fits out a whole bed.

The wider healthcare linen range sits beside the full bed linen range.
