HISTORY OF TICKING FABRIC: This type of fabric was used to make mattress covers since 1880. It is a very durable and resistant fabric but at the same time absorbent and breathable. The motifs used are very varied: floral, oriental, country, palatial, or striped and the colors very bright. These fabrics were produced from 1882 to 1980 in the Area of Igualada, known for its textile industry.
