Caring for Feather and Down
Caring for feather and down
Cocoon yourself in a cloud of comfort with luxurious and lofty layers from our Downtime collection. Our Downtime bedding essentials of duvet inners, pillow inners and mattress toppers are made from duck and goose feather and down. We source the feather and down from carefully chosen suppliers who hold a current DOWNPASS certification. This means the feather and down is ethically harvested; supply chains are regularly audited and stringent hygiene requirements are met.
Purchasing good quality duvet inners, mattress toppers and pillows is an investment, so it’s worth taking the time to care for your feather and down correctly.
Care instructions for feather and down
Dry clean only – make sure your drycleaner knows how to handle feather and down products correctly.
Do not bleach, iron or steam.
Air duvet inner and pillow inners before first use and every 2-3 weeks thereafter.
Top Tip – feathers are a natural product and naturally attract moisture. To help maintain loft and reduce moisture, air your feather inners and pillows in regular doses of sunshine. If the sun is absent, spin your feather inner or pillow in a warm dryer for 5 mins maximum instead. Or if you have a heated floor, lay your feather bedding on it to loft it up beautifully.
