Advantages and disadvantages of micro sateen: what you need to know

SSPDaily has prepared a list of advantages and disadvantages of micro sateen fabric. Learn about its properties and characteristics that will help you make an informed choice.

Micro sateen is a very thin fabric that contains both natural fiber and a small part of polyester. For bedding, this material is produced in a ratio of 60/% to 40/%. The first figure is the amount of natural thread, and the second is synthetic.

Advantages of micro sateen:

• Comfort

Fabric made of this material provides exceptional comfort due to its incredible softness and smooth texture against the skin.

• Care

This material does not require special care, is resistant to wrinkling, easy to clean and dries quickly.

• Breathability

Despite its satin texture, micro sateen is breathable, allowing air to circulate.

Disadvantages of micro sateen:

• Durability

Despite prioritizing comfort, micro sateen may not have the same durability as cotton or polyester, making it more susceptible to snags and tears.

• Sticking

Microsateen fabrics are prone to static electricity, which can cause them to stick. However, this problem can be solved by using antistatic agents or fabric softeners during washing.

• Circulation

Compared to natural fibers such as cotton or linen, micro sateen may have slightly lower air permeability, which can be an important factor for people who seek optimal air circulation.
