At the end of a long day, nothing feels better than retiring to the comfort of your own bed. A thoughtfully curated bedroom retreat reflects your style while balancing the practical needs of a space dedicated to rest. A quality linen duvet cover can help you wake refreshed and truly enjoy your home by elevating your style, lending cool comfort, and supporting your health.
Linen Bedding Elevates Your Home
Linen fabrics have been used in the home for thousands of years, and for good reason. This ancient textile isn’t going out of style! Made from the long fibers of the flax plant, flax linen is a natural choice for items that need to be durable yet also comfortable. This timeless fabric lends casual sophistication to any application, but our favorite is bedding.
Linen bedding can’t be beat for comfort. Like quality leather and fine wine, linen gets even better with time. Wash after wash, linen bedding maintains its shape while growing softer.
You’ll sleep cool in this moisture-wicking and ultra-breathable fabric for years to come with a linen duvet cover. It’s naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, which helps you rest easy, knowing you are supporting your health even while you sleep.
5 Reasons You’ll Love a Linen Duvet Cover
You don’t have to sacrifice style or comfort for practicality. A linen duvet cover offers the best of both worlds – the plushness of a comforter with the washability of a coverlet!
A duvet cover ties or buttons neatly like a pillowcase over an insert to bring a fresh look to your space. These are also easy to remove and freshen in your very own washing machine. No special trips to the dry cleaner needed! Here are five reasons we know you’ll love a linen duvet:
1. Reduce Allergens with Hypoallergenic Linen Bedding
Everyone knows the value of a good night’s sleep, but often, our indoor air quality can negatively impact the rest we get. Linen is naturally hypoallergenic and helps keep dust mites, pet dander, and other irritants at bay. Because a linen duvet cover is so easy to launder at home, you can ensure that your bed is always fresh.
2. Dress Your Home in Timeless Style
Linen has been loved for generations for its quiet elegance and unfussy style. It’s no surprise that a linen duvet cover is the perfect foundation for an elevated bedroom design. Effortless and unassuming, our linen duvet covers will make your master retreat feel chic, even if you forget to make up the bed! Linenforce can help you build your bedding set from the bottom up, from bedskirts to linen blackout curtains.
3. Sleep Cool with Linen Bedding’s Superior Breathability
Microfiber and polyester have their place—but it’s not in your bed. Synthetic fibers don’t breathe well and often cause sweat. Unfortunately, synthetic fabrics don’t wash up well, either, leaving you with bed linens that are less than fresh.
However, natural fibers are far more breathable and allow for better temperature regulation and moisture wicking. In fact, even when you compare linen against cotton, linen wins in breathability. Its hollow fibers and loose weave make linen a breezy option, letting you sleep cool and comfortable even on the steamiest summer nights.
4. Design Your Space with Endless Linen Duvet Cover Colors and Styles!
Our wide array of fine linen home goods allows you to dress your entire space with continuity. Our ivory ruffled hem duvet cover lends a romantic feel to any bedroom, and our punchy two-tones linen duvet in aqua is perfect for a contemporary room with a bold design. A linen duvet cover makes it simple to swap out your bed covering for a seasonal refresh and completely update your look!

5. Prioritize Sustainability with Eco-Friendly Linen
The textile industry hasn’t always been known for environmental sustainability, but linen challenges that standard. Made from renewable flax fibers, linen is an eco-friendly fabric perfect for high-use home goods.
Linen production uses less water and fewer pesticides than conventionally grown cotton. And even better, because of linen’s long, hollow fibers, when properly cared for, this durable textile can serve your home for years to come. Linenforce is proud to offer Oeko-Tex certified linen bedding so you can sleep confidently, knowing you’ve made a healthy choice for your home.
Does Thread Count Matter for Linen Bedding?
Egyptian cotton, percale, sateen, pima? And don’t get us started on the range of thread counts! A walk through the bedding aisle at your local big box store can make your head spin.
The good news is that linen bedding is far simpler. Rather than thread count, linen is measured by grams per meter (GSM). The GSM refers to how heavy the linen fabric is. Linenforce uses medium-weight linen from the best linen flax available to ensure quality bed linens that last.
How Do I Care for Linen Duvet Covers?
Duvet covers provide the convenience of at-home washing, so you can skip the dry cleaners. However, you should launder carefully to ensure you get the most life from your quality linen bedding. Always refer to your product’s specific care instructions before laundering.
Linen Duvet Cover Washing Guide:
Step 1: Remove the linen duvet cover by untying the loops connecting the cover to the insert.
Step 2: Spot-treat any stains with a gentle stain remover. Do not pour laundry detergent directly onto linen.
Step 3: If combining with other laundry, ensure that all fabrics are of similar color and fabric type.
Step 4: Select a gentle wash cycle with warm water, no hotter than 30 C/86 F
Step 5: Use mild liquid detergent.
Step 6: Line dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Step 7: Wrinkles are a natural quality of linen bedding, but to avoid deep wrinkles, remove the duvet cover from the dryer while still warm.
Step 8: Place the duvet cover back on the duvet by using the inside-out rolling method, and finish making your bed.
