A 60x60 cm pillowcase fits a square pillow measuring 60 × 60 cm. 60 × 60 cm is a common square pillow size in Switzerland, slightly more compact than the equally common 65 × 65 cm. Zizzz 60x60 cm pillowcases come in percale made of GOTS-certified organic cotton and in satin made of certified organic cotton. All are made in Portugal.
Does a 60x60 cm pillowcase fit my pillow?
Measure your pillow lying flat from seam to seam, or check the label.
Watch out for the difference from 65x65 cm: a 60x60 pillowcase is 5 cm smaller in both directions and therefore does not fit a 65x65 cm pillow. For that size, choose the 65x65 cm pillowcase.

Percale or satin in 60x60 cm?
Percale is woven in a plain weave and feels matte and cool. In satin, the threads float over longer stretches on the surface. This means fewer interlacing points, so the fabric feels smoother and gets its subtle sheen. You'll find the full comparison on our pillowcases page.

Frequently asked questions about 60x60 cm pillowcases
Is 60x60 cm a common pillow size in Switzerland?
Yes. 60 × 60 cm is a common square pillow size in Switzerland, slightly more compact than the equally common 65 × 65 cm. Other common sizes include 50x70, 60x90 and the large traditional Swiss size of 65x100 cm.
Does a 60x60 pillowcase fit a 65x65 cm pillow?
No. The pillowcase is 5 cm smaller than the pillow in both directions. For 65x65 cm pillows, Zizzz offers pillowcases in 65x65 cm.
Is the 60x60 pillowcase available in percale and satin?
Yes. Percale in GOTS-certified organic cotton comes in several designs with an envelope closure. Satin in certified organic cotton comes in undyed ecru with wood-look buttons.
Is cotton satin the same as silk?
No. Satin is a weave, not a fibre. Zizzz satin pillowcases are made of organic cotton, not silk. The satin weave is what gives the fabric its smooth surface with a subtle sheen.
Can I use the 60x60 pillowcase for a sofa or decorative cushion?
Yes, if the cushion measures 60 × 60 cm. However, Zizzz pillowcases are made as bed linen for pillows, not as decorative cushion covers.
