Babies want to be as comfortable as possible, especially while sleeping. The TOG expression seen on blankets, bedspreads and sleeping wear is a unit of heat insulation measurement used in the textile trade. TOG value is the international standard measurement of the thermal efficiency of such textile products, in short, how warm they are. Baby clothes should not cause overheating.
TOG is an acronym derived from "Thermal Overall Grades" meaning thermal overall grades and is an indication of the insulation value of sleeping bags and blankets. The higher the TOG value, the more heat this product retains. The TOG value is a way to prevent babies and young children from overheating. A baby who is too hot or too cold cannot sleep well.
First and foremost, it is important to maintain a constant room temperature between 16 and 20 degrees Celsius, with 18 degrees Celsius being the ideal temperature. The following shows which TOG (Total Temperature Gap) value can be used at the highest temperature:
At an average room temperature of 16-20 degrees, a TOG value of 2,5 to 3,0 should be maintained.
Babies, unlike adults, are not particularly adept at regulating their body temperature during the night. Babies lack critical thinking skills, such as kicking the blanket if it's too hot or wrapping up more blankets if it's too cold. That's why it's okay to keep them in a TOG-rated sleeping bag.
Briefly, the international standard measurement, TOG rating, describes the temperature or thermal resistance of a fabric and is widely used to describe the temperature levels of duvets and sleeping bags.
Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors, our organization also provides TOG value determination services for sleepwear and bed linens, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment.
