coverblankets

Coverblankets are textile products designed to cover surfaces for warmth, protection, or decoration. They are used as a lightweight to midweight layer on beds or over furniture, serving as an extra source of warmth or as a protective outer layer that helps prevent wear, stains, and pet hair from reaching upholstery.

Materials and construction vary. Common fabrics include cotton, cotton blends, polyester, microfiber, fleece, and wool blends. They may be single-layer or feature a quilted, brushed, or plush surface. Some coverblankets are designed with a detachable cover or reversible sides to provide multiple textures or colors in one item.

Sizes commonly follow standard blanket dimensions, ranging from throws to twin, full, queen, and king. Throws offer decorative value and portable warmth, while larger sizes function as bed coverings. Design options include solid colors, patterns, and textured or quilted finishes to match interior styles.

Care and maintenance depend on the fabric. Many coverblankets are machine washable and tumble dryable, though wool or delicate blends may require special cycles or dry cleaning. Colorfastness and shrinkage are considerations for laundering.

Market and use cases vary. Coverblankets are popular in homes for added warmth and styling, in guest rooms, and in hospitality settings where easy-clean, protective layers are beneficial. They are also marketed as lightweight travel or camping blankets. Sustainability considerations include the use of recycled fibers and certifications for safety and environmental impact.
