Baby duvet - Kapok - nature white

Our premium duvet for babies with a filling of 100% kapok helps you to create a healthy and allergy-free sleeping environment for your little one. 

The outer fabric of the duvet is produced in 100% organic cotton. 

Kapok fibres contain a natural bitter substance that makes kapok resistant to dust mites, bacteria and fungal spores.

In addition, kapok fibres are insulating, temperature-regulating and breathable. Since it is very difficult for small children to control their own body temperature, the materials’ unique properties make our kapok baby duvet the perfect choice for your little one.

Kapok comes from trees that grow on plantations in Asia and South America. In contrast to other natural fibres like e.g. cotton, kapok can be harvested year after year without felling the trees.

How to care for your kapok duvet

Please note: When you receive your kapok duvet, it will feel very compact, but when you snuggle with it, the kapok fibres unfold and your duvet becomes softer and fluffier! This gives your duvet the lightness and fluffiness that is characterising for the kapok fibres. 

Since the kapok fibres contain natural bitter substances, dust mites, fungal spores and bacteria cannot live in the duvet. Therefore, you do not have to wash your kapok duvet as often as a down duvet. We recommend that you wash your duvet only when necessary and ideally only after the kapok fibres have become light and fluffy.

To keep your kapok duvet fluffy, we recommend that you air it in the tumble dryer for 30 minutes every three months.

If you need to wash your kapok duvet, please follow these instructions:

• Wash your kapok duvet at 40 degrees. Use only enzyme-free detergent and never fabric softener.
• Choose a programme with a high spin cycle to remove as much water as possible from the kapok before drying.
• It is very important that you tumble dry your kapok duvet immediately after washing since the kapok fibres can be damaged if left wet for too long.
• Dry your kapok duvet for 30 minutes at a high temperature and then let it air cool.
• Finally, gently shake your kapok duvet and gently spread out the kapok fibres by hand.
• Repeat the last two steps until your kapok duvet is completely dry.
