Classification of household linens

  1. Bed linen: Items used on a bed such as mattresses, bed sheets, bed spreads, blankets, pillow covers and comforters.
  2. Table linen: Fabrics used on the table such as table cover, towels, napkins etc.
  3. Bath linen: Towels, shower curtains, etc.
  4. Kitchen linen: Aprons, gloves, cover for microwave and fridge, etc.
  5. Interior products: Draperies, furniture upholstery, floor décor, cushions etc.
Traditionally linen fabric (made of flax fibre) was used for household textiles. The collective term "linens" is still often used generically to describe a class of woven and even knitted bed, bath, table and kitchen textiles.
