GBS Enterprises provides product protection services to some of the leading retailers in the mattress and bedding industry including a GBS warranty. GBS warranty plans are available for many different types of home furnishings. In 2015, GBS Enterprises unveiled the Healthy Sleep line of mattress covers and bedsheets. Bedsheets are commonly categorized by their thread count. Thread counts are calculated by adding together the number of threads woven horizontally and vertically in one square inch of fabric. Often bedsheet and textile manufacturers inflate their products’ thread count by counting the fibers in each thread separately. In practice, an 800-count sheet could actually be comprised of 400 threads made up of two fibers. Increasing the thread count in this manner has little impact on softness or quality. Rather than relying on thread counts, consumers should consider other factors, such as their skin type and personal preferences. Buyers with sensitive skin should look for breathable bedding, such as GBS Healthy Sleep Ultra-Tech’s bedsheets, which are made from Tencel, a lightweight fabric derived from wood pulp.
GBS Enterprises, a company with locations in Nevada, Nebraska, and Florida, sells Health Sleep products and furniture warranty plans to the pest control, furniture, and hospitality industries. Individuals with a GBS warranty receive protection for a variety of both indoor and outdoor furniture.If you live in an area where winters bring snow and rain, you must store your outdoor furniture to ensure it stays protected. As you prepare to store this type of furniture, make sure you clean everything. Any dirt or moisture left on your outdoor furniture will grow during winter, thus leaving it damaged when you bring it out for the summer. Most plastic, mesh, iron, and wicker furniture can be cleaned with a dish soap and water solution. For metal furniture, use detergent and water. Wipe every surface of your furniture and let it dry completely before storing it. Further, remove all cushions and wipe the areas that those cushions covered. If these cushions have removable covers, wash and dry the covers according to the manufacturer labels. Then stack the dry cushions and covers off the floor in a dry and clean space.It’s also a good idea for you to add a protective coating to your furniture so it stays clean throughout winter. A thin coat of car wax protects most plastic and aluminum pieces, while paste wax protects wicker furniture. With metal furniture, make sure there are no signs of rust anywhere on it and then spray it with a silicone sealant.Finally, you should protect your furniture from the weather by placing it in a storage shed or garage. Alternately, if you don’t have enough indoor space, you can use a tarp or furniture covers. Furniture covers should fit around your outdoor furniture tight enough that they stay put in windy weather, but tarps need to be tied down to ensure they don’t blow away during the season.
