The recipe for sound, healthy sleep


Why does your choice of bedding affect the way you sleep?


Natural down and feathers are among the finest and most popular fillings for bedding products. This should come as no surprise. To the present day, we have never found or invented a better climate regulation system than down with its fine branched structure and the millions of tiny air chambers.A natural down duvet spends the night absorbing the moisture released by the body (anything up to half a litre) and then re-releasing it when it is aired in the morning. It also ensures the temperature in bed remains constant without creating a build up of heat – a necessity considering that the body temperature drops by around half a degree when you sleep and that the room temperature may vary during the night.
