One of the best ways to be sure you’re buying sheets made entirely from real Egyptian cotton is to look for a 100 percent Egyptian cotton certification. The Cotton Egypt Association (CEA) is considered the gold standard when it comes to identifying certified Egyptian cotton products.
A list of accredited manufacturers is available on the CEA’s website, along with contact information, details on what products they make, production methods, and more for each manufacturer. Manufacturers that have had their certifications suspended or are blacklisted by the program are also posted on the website.
A list of retailers that carry and sell accredited Egyptian cotton products is also available.
