We’re Bed Serious
(But otherwise quite silly)
-
Who We Are
Hi, we’re Sheets & Giggles. We love sleep, sustainability, and puns. And Oxford commas, obviously. We make bedding for people who love those things just as much—if not more—than us.
-
Why We Are
We’re not entirely sure. Exploding stars?
-
What We Make
We make sustainable bedding from Eucalyptus trees—it’s kind of our whole deal. Sheets & Giggle’s lyocell fabric is made out of high-quality eucalyptus wood pulp, a sustainable and renewable natural resource. We don’t harvest wood from ancient or endangered forests. Instead, our eucalyptus trees are grown on sustainably managed and biodiverse farms. Plus, for every tree harvested, two more are planted.
-
What We Make
The lyocell process used to turn eucalyptus wood into our insanely smooth rayon sheets is considered to be one of the most eco-friendly means of fabric production in the world. Our closed-loop manufacturing process ensures that nearly 100% of the byproducts are reused in the process itself. The result is a fabric that uses 96% less water, 30% less energy, and zero pesticides or insecticides compared to cotton.
-
What We Believe
We believe you don’t need to sacrifice quality for sustainability—or vice versa. Our bedding is stupid soft and brazenly breathable but made with a deep, unconditional, some might say obsessive love for Planet Earth.
-
What We Believe
We also believe in giving back. In the industry, this is called “corporate responsibility,” but we just think of it as not being greedy, polluting jerks. And since corporations are somehow people now we think it’s only fair that companies act like good, decent, non-jerky people.
Giving Back
-
As proud members of Pledge 1% Colorado, we give 1% of our profits to impactful nonprofits in our local community.
-
Last year we donated 20% of our revenue between Purple Friday and Cyber Monday—totaling over $17,000—to the World Wildlife Fund to help koalas impacted by the ongoing bushfires in Australia.
-
We plan to continue to donate to pressing causes and effective charities as our company grows.
-
One-For-One
LEARN MOREFor every order we receive, we plant an adorable baby tree somewhere in the US that needs reforestation via our one-for-one partnership with One Tree Planted. We also plant two trees for every eucalyptus tree we harvest. So, just to recap, that’s 1 tree for every order and 2 trees for every harvested tree, which brings the grand total to…a sheet ton of trees.

Donate Your Sheet
Every year, 10 million tons of textiles wind up in landfills—sheets included. Via our #Give2Sheets donation program, if you donate your old sheets, we’ll give you 10% off your next order just for being an awesome person.
The S&G Team
Our team is small, scrappy, and sustainably-made (Carl, our marketing associate, is actually 90% post-consumer cardboard).
Founder’s Story
Sheets & Giggles was born from an all-too-common problem: how to escape from a deserted island using nothing but the materials available to you. Our Founder & CEO, Colin, realized that he could easily make a raft from the palm trees at hand, but a sail wouldn’t come so easily. The palm leaves were too porous to perfectly capture the wind to overcome the tides, but the natural cotton that grew on the island wasn’t breathable enough to allow free airflow, and the raft would quickly capsize. And that’s when he realized there had to be a better way to make the perfect breathable fabric, a better way to escape his cruel unending isolation in the Pacific.
