Mulberry Park Silks , a leading provider of premium 100% pure mulberry silk bedding, is proud to announce its inclusion in a recent USA TODAY feature exploring how consumers can sleep cooler during extreme summer heat.
The article, " Cooling sheets that actually keep you from overheating, " highlights practical ways to create a cooler, more comfortable sleep environment and features expert commentary from Kendra Cosenza, Brand Manager at Mulberry Park Silks.
"As temperatures rise, many people assume they need to rely on air conditioning or expensive cooling gadgets," said Cosenza. "Sometimes sleeping cool is as simple as choosing lightweight, natural fiber, breathable bedding. While cotton is a natural fiber, it is quite absorbent—think cotton towel—which can create a clammy, damp environment by morning."
In the article, Cosenza also explains that many commonly used bedding materials can contribute to overheating.
“Synthetic comforters and polyester sheets can trap heat and prevent proper airflow, leading to overheating and night sweats. Bedding weight is also a contributing factor. Lightweight covers and top sheets are a quick fix for hot sleepers.”

The USA TODAY feature recommends breathable natural fibers such as linen, cotton percale, and bamboo for their cooling properties. Mulberry Park Silks also believes that high-quality silk bedding deserves a place in the conversation. Naturally temperature regulating, silk helps maintain a comfortable sleep environment by promoting airflow while efficiently managing moisture throughout the night.
Unlike synthetic fabrics that trap heat, premium mulberry silk adapts to changing body temperatures, helping sleepers stay cool during warm weather and comfortably insulated during cooler months. Combined with its luxurious softness and skin- and hair-friendly benefits, silk has become a preferred choice for consumers seeking a healthier, more restorative night's sleep.
"We're honored to be recognized by USA TODAY as a trusted resource for sleep and bedding expertise," said Cosenza. "Helping customers understand how different bedding materials affect sleep quality is an important part of our mission."
Mulberry Park Silks offers an extensive collection of luxury silk pillowcases, sheet sets, duvet covers, sleep accessories, robes, and bedding designed to deliver exceptional comfort while showcasing the natural benefits of Grade 6A, 100% pure mulberry silk.
