Hospital Textiles

In short: The decisive criteria for a hospital blanket are resistance to high-temperature washing, colour fastness, fast drying and chemical safety documentation. Sesli Tekstil's antibacterial blanket group was developed for these conditions; production falls under Oeko-Tex Standard 100.

What Healthcare Expects from a Blanket

Frequent, high-temperature washing: infection-control protocols mean textiles are washed often and hotter than at home
Fast drying: shortens the laundry cycle and reduces stock requirements
Colour coding: separating by ward, floor or use type simplifies operations — which makes colour consistency in repeat orders critical
Chemical safety: no harmful residue on products in direct contact with patient skin
Dimensional stability: shrinkage disrupts bed presentation and stock management

Why Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Is Requested

Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is an international standard under which textile products are independently laboratory-tested and certified against more than 100 chemicals that may be harmful to human health. Product classes are separated by intensity of skin contact, with the strictest limits applied to baby articles. It is among the most frequently requested documents in healthcare purchasing. Detail: Oeko-Tex and chemical safety.

Product	Use
Antibacterial blanket	Patient rooms, intensive care, companions
Acrylic blanket	General wards, frequent washing
Cotton pique	Summer period, breathable cover

Colour Coding and Repeat Orders

In institutions applying colour coding, each new batch must match the tone of the previous one; otherwise the coding loses its function. At Sesli Tekstil approved colour recipes are archived and colour standardisation with batch matching is applied to every run.

Tenders and Specifications

In public and private healthcare purchasing, the specification usually defines size, weight, blend ratio, colour and test reports together. Sending your request with the specification or a technical property list speeds up the suitability assessment; where required a sample is produced and submitted for approval.

Our GRS certificate covers the regenerated cotton yarn production line only; no GRS document is provided for blanket products.
