Oreillers duvet de canard

Does the duck down filling offer ergonomic comfort?

A night spent with a duck down pillow is unforgettable. Its structure naturally inflates with air, creating thermal bridges with a high calorific potential. But it also offers a soft, airy comfort that is perfect for providing ergonomic comfort for the head. Feathers offer just the right amount of resistance to support the head, while feathers are not used because they are uncomfortable. The blend that makes up this natural filling offers support and a welcome that goes beyond even that offered by a memory foam pillow. Its comfort adapts to the sleeper's morphology and sleeping habits and follows every movement of the head during the night. As a result, the head remains perfectly aligned with the neck, nape, shoulders and back.

Quels sont les différents conforts des oreillers en duvet de canard ?

Duck down is a particularly soft and plump filling. Its lightness can be seen when a flake is thrown into the air. Its incredibly light weight defies gravity, almost allowing it to float. This suppleness is reflected in the comfort it offers duck down pillows. To allow for different levels of comfort, a certain amount of feathers is mixed with the pure down, offering a higher level of resistance. The Luxe natural firm pillow is filled with 50% down and 50% feathers. This subtle blend gives this range the thermoregulating properties of down with a firmer level of comfort, thanks to the structure of the feathers. The white goose down pillow offers a softer comfort option, ideal for people sleeping in the prone position.

How do I choose the right size duck down pillow?

Choosing the right size pillow is essential to ensure ergonomic comfort and quality sleep. The rectangular duck down pillow is recommended for side sleepers. It only supports the head by nestling in the hollow of the shoulder. Sleeping on your stomach or back, on the other hand, requires a square duck down pillow. It also supports the top of the shoulders and prevents the head from moving out of alignment with the nape of the neck, which can cause neck strain. On the other hand, people who fall asleep on their stomachs should prefer a soft pillow, which is thinner and therefore less likely to arch their lumbar vertebrae.

How do I wash a duck down pillow?

It's important to look after your duck down pillow properly to ensure that it remains comfortable throughout its lifespan of 1001 nights. Down is a filling that settles each night under the weight of the head, and needs to be cared for daily, by tapping it vigorously so that it regains its fullness. It should be washed at least once a year in a high-capacity washing machine. The temperature limit is 40 degrees and the spin cycle is the maximum. Drying must be done in a tumble dryer, on repeated gentle cycles until all traces of moisture have disappeared.
