Why choose a kapok pillow?

Most people can relate to the experience of a feather or down pillow becoming very warm during the night. You get so warm that you need to flip the pillow during the night to get the cool side. This is because feathers and down are both fantastic at insulating. The good insulation provides a really nice feeling during the cold months when we want to retain as much heat as possible. It's really nice until you've warmed the pillow and the duvet to body temperature. After this, the body needs to get rid of the excess heat and moisture. Unfortunately, this is where feathers and down often fall short. A kapok pillow is fantastic at regulating heat due to the lightness and structure of the kapok fiber, which allows heat and moisture to be transported away from the body. A kapok pillow is therefore especially suitable for you if you tend to feel too hot at night.

Kapok is a natural fiber that grows on the kapok tree Cebia pentandra in the tropical rainforests of southern and central America, India, and the western part of Africa. You can partially compare kapok to cotton, but kapok differs by being much airier than cotton. The kapok fiber contains 80% air and is thus 8 times lighter than cotton, making it the world's lightest natural fiber. The high air content in the kapok fiber is what makes it incredibly temperature-regulating and breathable.

When you sleep with a kapok pillow, you will experience that the pillow adapts to your body temperature. A kapok pillow is therefore one of the best things to sleep with if you have problems with night sweats or simply find a regular down pillow too warm and insulating. A kapok pillow also stands out by being water-repellent. The kapok fiber contains a natural layer of wax around each silky-soft fiber. This means that the kapok pillow will not absorb the moisture and sweat that the body releases during the night. Instead, the moisture is transported away from the body through the fiber's many airy cavities. You will therefore find that a kapok pillow remains wonderfully dry throughout the night.
