Fill Power - one of the most important parameters for down pillows.
One of the most important parameters of goose and duck pillows is the fill power. It is a key factor in determining their quality, comfort and warmth. It refers to the volume that one ounce of down can fill. Essentially, the higher the fill power, the larger and fluffier the down clusters, which means that the final product offers greater softness and insulating properties.
In goose and duck down pillows, the fill power usually ranges from about 450 to over 850 cuin (cubic inches). Pillows with a lower FP, such as around 450-600 cuin, contain less volume and will feel less high, although they still provide comfort and head support.
Down pillows with less fill power are generally more affordable and are suitable for people who prefer to sleep on a softer, lower pillow or live in an area with a warmer climate where extra insulation is not required. Both types of product offer good ventilation, preventing night-time sweating of the head.
Type of down and fill power.
Goose down generally has a higher fill power than duck down, because goose down clusters are usually larger, providing superior volume and insulation. This makes goose down pillows particularly attractive to consumers who want an extremely soft, luxurious pillow. Duck down, although often more affordable, usually has a lower fill power, providing good comfort but less softness than goose down. This is the general understanding but in practice a good duck down may be of higher quality than average goose down.
The "Fill Power" parameter also affects the durability of the down pillow. A higher fill power means that the pillow will retain its volume capacity and structure for a longer time, as the larger down clusters are more elastic and less prone to compression over time. For people seeking long-term comfort and stable support, choosing a pillow with a higher fill power is a smart investment.
Cleanliness of the down - a guarantee of the absence of allergic reactions
An indisputable certificate of quality of a pillow with down or with down and feathers is the cleanliness of the down filling. Many people still believe that down products (duvets and pillows) cause allergies due to the growth of dust mites in the birds' feathers. We hasten to clarify that if this statement was true in the past, today it is generally not valid and certainly does not apply to our products.
The purity of the down is guaranteed by many factors. First of all, it is the environment in which the birds are raised and the way in which the raw material is collected. The down and feathers we use to fill our luxurious pillows are produced in a way that meets hygiene and ethical standards.
The down incorporated into our products passes through multiple stages of cleaning and disinfection. The raw materials are washed 8 times and then sterilised at high temperature to remove any organic residues and dust. The anti-mite fabric of the cover additionally makes the pillow absolutely safe, including for people with allergies and small children.
The hypoallergenic nature of our pillows is proven by certificate. All our fillings and cases are certified according to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1 for the absence of harmful substances!
What is Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1?
The cases of pillows with down and feathers are made of high-quality cotton fabrics woven with a fine thread so that the filling does not escape. The fabrics are classified as down-proof, but most importantly they are certified according to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1.
Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1 is a certificate that ensures that the fabrics have been tested for harmful substances and are safe even for the most sensitive users, including babies and small children. The standard is divided into four product categories, with Class 1 being the strictest.
Products that receive this certificate do not contain chemicals known to cause allergies, irritations or endanger health. This includes testing for heavy metals, pesticides, formaldehyde and other toxic substances.
In the context of down pillows, this certificate is a decisive parameter, especially for people with allergies, sensitive skin or for families with small children. Pillows come into direct contact with our skin for prolonged periods, so it is essential that they do not contain harmful substances.
