Abstract

Disposable bed linen must be hygienic and must not allow liquids such as blood or perspiration to pass through and soil the mattress. The cost of such disposable bed linen must not be excessive and must be comparable with the cost of laundering conventional bed linen. A disposable bed sheet (10) for fitting to a mattress, comprises a four-sided top portion (16) for covering a major face of the mattress; a plurality of integral flaps (28, 30, 36, 40) each extending from a respective side of the top portion, each flap being shaped to cover a respective side face of the mattress when folded relative to the top portion along a top fold line (18, 20, 22, 24) representing the boundary between the flap and the top portion, and to meet, at at least one of its ends, an end of another of the flaps, being a flap which is associated with an adjacent side of the top portion, to form a corner; and at each such corner, an integral lug (44) projecting from an end of one of the flaps to overlap part of the other flap at the corner, one of the flaps (40) being longer than the others to form a top sheet (60) for folding back over the top portion. Some of the flaps may be folded along a bottom fold line (32, 34, 38, 42) parallel and spaced from the respective top fold line to form an outer flap portion for tucking under the mattress. The top sheet (60) may be omitted.
