SnugSleep Wool Duvets & Pillows: WOOL- the miracle fibre, has long been recognised for its ability to insulate and to absorb moisture without feeling wet. WOOL in a duvet ensures that you stay warm and dry for a good night's sleep- every night. WOOL duvets or comforters provide the environment that helps you to sleep soundly and wake more refreshed..naturally! WOOL is recommended because it: is naturally non-allergenic absorbs and dissipates body moisture without feeling wet creates a comfortable even body temperature for a restful sleep,  year round. fire resistant SnugSleep WOOL duvets are puffy, light  and warm...what more could you want from a duvet? They contain only the highest quality wool. Inside the 100% unbleached cotton cover you will find long wool fibres that are arranged in a "bird nest" orientation-  producing a low weight, high loft, sleep enhancing comforter. Other manufacturers use more wool to create the same level of insulation. Maximum loft or puffiness, is enhanced by the use of minimum quilting. SnugSleep has found that extra stitch lines restrict comforter puffiness and  the level of insulation. Have a good nights sleep every night under a SnugSleep Wool Duvet..naturally!   Sizes: Twin:      64" x 88"-   40oz  -       US  $130 Double:  78" x 88"-   47 oz -       US  $150 Queen:   89" x 90"-   53 oz -       US  $180 King:      106" x 90"-  63 oz -       US  $230     The high-bulk carded wool used in a SnugSleep duvet produces a superior loft for greater air entrapment and better insulation. Trapped still air is an excellent insulator. Other manufacturers use parallel wool fibres and more wool to achieve the same results. The "birds nest" arrangement of long wool fibres in SnugsSleep duvets increases air entrapment for greater insulation. This means SnugSleep duvets are puffier, lighter and warmer..a great recipe for a good night's sleep every night...naturally! 100% unbleached cotton covers enhance the performance of the SnugSleep™ high-bulk wool duvet. These SnugSleep duvet covers have at least 40% air permeability. This allows for air flow to and from the wool so that moisture can be wicked away from the body and released from the wool efficiently. In contrast, the very high count percale covers used for down and feather duvets are airtight. This is necessary in feather duvets so that dander and dust does not escape. Many people are allergic to dust mites that feed on this dander. Airtight covers create an impervious barrier to body moisture release, resulting in body temperature changes and restless sleep. SnugSleep 100% unbleached cotton covers enhance the ability of  SnugSleep™ wool to absorb moisture while maintaining a constant body temperature.

Duvet Care:

SnugSleep duvets are " Dry Clean" only. Washing a SnugSleep duvet is not recommended because the wool may clump and loft will be reduced. When you get out of bed each morning, shake the comforter to restore the wool loft. You should also air the comforter regularly on dry breezy days. This will give the wool a chance to dissipate any water in the wool fibres.

With good day to day care, however, a wool duvet can last years without needing to be dry cleaned. It is best to keep a duvet in a duvet cover, which is like a big pillowcase with ties, buttons or Velcro at the open end. A duvet cover looks good and protects the comforter from dirt and dust. If a spill does reach the duvet, spot-clean the area with a dilute Woolskin solution ( 1 Woolskin :10 water).

If dry cleaning becomes necessary, make sure that  you alert the cleaner to the fact that this is a wool product. To order, click: Duvet

.SnugSleep Wool Pillows

SnugSleep™ Wool Pillows are designed to support your neck in a warming and dry environment. If body moisture is not absorbed by a pillow, evaporation and the resultant skin cooling may cause neck stiffness. Sleeping on the wrong pillow can also lead to neck pain, headaches, shoulder and back pain.

With the Snugsleep Wool Pillow, moisture is absorbed, and comfort is maintained. The Snugsleep Pillow is 100% washable. Mould your SnugSleep Pillow to the shape that you find best and enjoy a good nights sleep- every night.

Soft wool knops are an exciting new concept in wool fill material.  SnugSleep™ wool filled pillows are filled with wool knops. Wool knops are little balls of soft pure new wool- the size of a pill. These spherical clusters of pure New Zealand wool, are ideally suited for use in pillows because of their superior bulk and resilience.

Wool Knops used in SnugSleep Pillows

Soft Wool Knops were developed by the Wool Research Organisation of New Zealand ( WRONZ).

• The Process : 33 to 37 micron wool, selected for its good colour and natural resilience, is formed into small, airy clusters of pure wool fibre using purpose built machinery. An anti-felting and softening treatment is applied, which give the knops a soft handle and improves their  performance without affecting the wool’s natural comfort and insulating properties.
  
  

• Performance : The construction of the soft wool knop enhances the comfort properties of wool. The natural bulk and resilience of wool is increased;  which means that pillows will maintain their thickness and loft much longer. Comparative user trials which measured thickness loss in pillows confirm the high resilience of soft wool knop fill.
  
  
  

• Care and cleaning : Soft knop pillows can be dry-cleaned in a moisture free system with slight loss of filling bulk. Alternatively, pillows can be machine-washed on a  "gentle" or  “wool cycle”. Machine washing tends to cause some bulk loss, which can be partially restored by tumble-drying. See below for more detailed laundry instructions.

SnugSleep Wool Knop Pillows have a Natural Advantage because:

• Wool is warm

• Wool is the comforting natural fibre

• Wool is safe

• Wool wicks moisture away from your skin; keeping you dry

SnugSleep™ pillows provide excellent malleability, resilience and the special moisture control advantage that only wool can provide. This latter property is a major benefit for those with arthritis and chronic neck pain.

SnugSleep zippered unbleached cotton covers provide for easy laundering and further addition of wool knops as required.  SnugSleep's Wool Knop Pillows are available in 2 sizes- Regular and  Queen.

Regular:  17" x 24"  -  23oz-  US $55.00    

Queen:   17" X 27" - 28oz   US $68.00

 

 

Pillow Care:

Re-fluffing or Restoring :

Place pillow or pillows( max. 2) in dryer with a wet ( wrung out ) towel. Tumble for 5 - 8 minutes using the "Hot" setting. Remove and allow to cool. The steam released will re-fluff the wool knops.

Laundry:

• Cover Only: Unzip cover and pour loose knops into a large plastic bag. Launder cotton cover with other bedding articles. Refill and use. You should be aware that the cotton cover will shrink when washed. This means that you will probably not need all of the wool knops you previously used for your ideally shaped pillow. Store these for later use.

• Whole pillows can be hand washed if necessary. Fill laundry tub with lukewarm water and add Woolskin:- 20mL per pillow. Woolskin contains Tea Tree Oil and is effective against dust mites. Push pillow into the water and leave for 10 minutes. Drain tub and refill with cool water to rinse the pillow.. Do not agitate. Drain again and spin in washing machine to remove excess water. Place in dryer for up to 5 minutes using the HOT setting.  Remove and air dry.
