What is Sateen Fabric?

The sateen weave creates a fabric that is very similar to satin in appearance.
In most cases, cotton is used in the production process, and the finished product has a silky, glossy finish.
Spun yarns, not filament, are used to construct the woven framework.
Floating the weft strands so that they are more prominent on the face of the cloth results in this effect.
In order to achieve a surface that is entirely flat and homogeneous, the apparent interlacing of the yarns has been minimized.
In place of the one under, one over pattern that is typical of plain weave, this pattern often travels one beneath the warp strands and then numerous times over the warp yarns.

Texture	Its front side has a surface that is silky smooth, and it is practically impossible to tell apart from real silk or satin.
Fall	The material drapes beautifully and folds gracefully.
Durability	Whether printed or plain, it retains its color and looks wonderful even after several washes.

Clothing	Shirt, blazer, skirt, pants, pajamas, etc.
Home Furnishing	Curtains, bed sheets, table cloths, etc.

Use a mild detergent and wash in either cold or warm water using a machine or hand.
Differentiate between bright and dark colors.
Bleach should not be used unless the product's label states that it is safe to do so.
Dry the items in the dryer using a low heat setting, or even better, hang them outside in the shade to dry.
Sateen fabric can be pressed, but only at a low-temperature setting.
