The benefits of a natural materials duvet

Transform your sleep with a duvet made from natural materials. These duvets offer more than just comfort, they bring a range of benefits to your bedtime routine. 

 

  • Personalised comfort: Natural fillings like down and feather adapt to your body, providing tailored comfort that responds to your movements and sleeping position.
  • Moisture management: They naturally wick away moisture, keeping you dry and comfortable throughout the night, which is beneficial for those who tend to sweat while sleeping.
  • Easy care: These duvets are machine-washable, ensuring hassle-free cleaning and maintaining their quality over time.

The benefits of a polyester duvet

Our polyester duvets, blended with natural materials such as cotton and lyocell, combine comfort with convenience, making them a popular choice for many. They are machine washable and easy to care for. Here are some other key benefits:

 

  • Allergy-friendly: A great option for allergy sufferers, as synthetic fibers are less prone to attract dust mites and other allergens.
  • Lightweight warmth: Enjoy better sleep without the heaviness of traditional duvets, perfect for those who prefer a lighter cover.
  • Durability: Polyester fibers are resilient and maintain their shape over time, ensuring long-term use and value.

How to choose your perfect duvet size

Picking the right duvet size is more than matching it to your bed, it’s about your personal sleep comfort too. Whether you sleep solo or with a partner, there’s a duvet size for everyone. Have you heard about the Scandinavian style of using individual duvets for each person? It might just be the cosy solution you’re looking for.

 

  • Match duvet size to bed and body: Consider both the size of your bed and your own body size. A larger duvet can offer more coverage and comfort, especially if you’re tall or prefer extra space.
  • Individual vs shared duvets: If you share a bed, think about whether you’d prefer a single large duvet or the Scandinavian approach of two separate duvets. This can cater to different warmth and space preferences.
  • Factor in sleep habits: Your duvet size should accommodate how you sleep. If you tend to move a lot, a larger size might be better to prevent drafts. For those who stay still, a snugger fit might be ideal.

Caring for your duvet

A well-cared-for duvet is a key to cosy nights and quality sleep comfort. Follow these simple steps to ensure your duvet stays clean, comfortable, and long-lasting.

 

  • Go for detergents without harsh chemicals or bleach. This protects the duvet’s fibres and filling, ensuring it stays soft and comfortable, enhancing your sleep comfort.
  • Shaking out your duvet regularly helps redistribute the filling and prevent clumps, maintaining an even and comfortable thickness throughout.
  • Do you forget to make the bed sometimes? It’s actually a good thing! By airing out your bed linen, you help eliminate dust mites and other allergens, promoting a healthier sleeping environment.
