We think it is important that children are given the best conditions to achieve a comfortable and uninterrupted night's sleep. A kapok baby duvet is a cool, breathable and temperature-regulating all-season duvet that can help create the right environment for the child. Our own story with kapok started back when our youngest son, Phillip, was little. Like many other children, Phillip was a hot child and he often woke up several times during the night, hot and humid. We tried all the traditional sleeping products, such as down, feathers and foam, but nothing really helped.
In our search for alternative materials, we came across the natural fiber kapok, which proved to be fantastic for regulating heat and moisture. It is through our development of these kapok products that we found the solution for our son. The Kapok duvet gave our son the sleep we had been looking for for so long. Finally he could sleep through a whole night without waking up drenched in sweat and having to look for a new dry spot on the duvet. It is this reassurance that we now try to pass on to other parents, who experience the same situation with their child as we did.
Our kapok duvet is filled with 100% untreated and organic kapok and covered with a spring of certified organic cotton. No chemicals or synthetic materials are used during either the cultivation or the production of our kapok quilt. What makes our Cocoon kapok baby duvet special:
Why choose a kapok duvet?
Most people can nod in recognition to the experience of a feather or down duvet getting really warm during the night. You get so hot that you have to stick your leg out or lift up the duvet a bit during the night, just to cool off a little. This is because feathers and down are both incredibly good at insulating. The ability to insulate really well is perfect during the cold months, when we want to retain the heat as much as possible. It's really nice, right up to the point where you've warmed up the duvet and mattress to body temperature. After this, the body needs to be able to get rid of the excess heat and moisture that the body creates. Unfortunately, this is where feathers and down often fall short, due to their great insulating properties.
The lightness of the kapok fiber means that it regulates the heat around the body and transports the excess moisture and heat away from the body, so that the child gets a nice, regulated and dry night's sleep. This is especially important for infants, as small children can have difficulty regulating their own body temperature. This can lead to small children becoming too hot and sweating. Therefore, it is incredibly important that the baby duvet is good enough to help the child regulate heat and moisture. And this is where the kapok fiber really makes a difference.
Kapok is a natural fiber that grows on the kapok tree Cebia pentranda in the tropical rainforests of South and Central America, India and in the western part of Africa. You can partially compare kapok with 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 lightest natural fiber in the world. The high air content in the kapok fiber is what makes it incredibly temperature regulating and breathable.
When you sleep with a kapok quilt, you will experience that the quilt adapts to your body temperature. A kapok duvet is therefore one of the best things to sleep with if you have problems with sweating or simply find a normal down duvet too warm and insulating. A kapok quilt is also distinguished by being water-resistant. Kapok contains a natural layer of wax around each individual silky fiber. This means that the kapok duvet will not absorb the moisture and sweat that the body emits 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 duvet remains pleasantly dry throughout the night.
Kapok is a unique natural fibre with exceptional properties that deserve proper care. Read our instructions and prolong the life of your kapok product!
To preserve the fibre structure and its properties as best as possible, we recommend only washing your kapok product if absolutely necessary. Your Cocoon kapok products have not been dyed or treated with chemicals, so there is no need to wash your new kapok product before use.
Kapok also contains a natural bitter substance, which makes the fibre, and therefore the products, naturally resistant to house dust mites and many bacteria. For this reason, it is rarely necessary to wash your kapok product unless a major accident has occurred in bed. For minor stains, we recommend spot cleaning only.
We recommend airing your kapok product from time to time to maintain a healthy and fresh sleeping environment.

How to dry your Cocoon kapok product:
As a natural fibre, kapok will naturally soften and lose volume over time as it is used. This is completely normal. The lifespan of your kapok product depends on external factors such as use, care, and wear.
