Hypoallergenic duvet

Do you experience a runny or blocked nose, watery eyes or difficulty breathing at night – or when you wake up in the morning? These symptoms may be caused by an allergic reaction, often triggered by house dust mites living in and around your bed, duvets and pillows. With allergy‑friendly duvets, you can create the best possible conditions for a calm, uninterrupted night’s sleep.

What are allergy‑friendly duvets?

Allergy‑friendly duvets are designed to be washed regularly, helping to reduce the build‑up of house dust mites inside the duvet. This creates a more hygienic sleep environment and minimises the risk of allergic reactions. While it’s not possible to eliminate house dust mites completely, good hygiene and regular washing can significantly reduce their numbers.

Sleep better with an allergy‑friendly duvet

If you live with a house dust mite allergy, you may recognise the frustration of waking during the night or in the morning with puffy eyes, a blocked nose or laboured breathing. House dust mites are a natural part of most sleep environments because they thrive in warm, humid conditions and feed on shed hair and skin cells from people and animals.

Although that may sound unpleasant, it happens without us noticing. House dust mites are typically less than one millimetre in size and can’t be seen with the naked eye. Despite their tiny size, however, they can have a significant impact on people with allergies.

House dust mites will always be present in duvets, pillows and bedding – and unfortunately, this is also where they’re most likely to cause discomfort, as we sleep with our faces close to these surfaces and inhale the allergens they produce. That said, there are steps you can take to reduce their presence. Allergy‑friendly duvets and pillows are an effective way to create conditions that make it difficult for dust mites to survive. By choosing the right materials and maintaining good sleep hygiene, you can greatly improve your sleep environment.

If you also air and wash your allergy‑friendly duvet regularly, change your bed linen frequently and maintain good hygiene in and around your bed – including regular ventilation of the bedroom – you’ll create strong foundations for a cleaner, more comfortable and restful night’s sleep.

A wide range of allergy‑friendly duvets at Nordic Sleep

At Nordic Sleep by Fossflakes, you’ll find a wide selection of allergy‑friendly duvets – in fact, all of our duvets are allergy‑friendly. This is because they are filled with our patented and unique Fossflakes fibres, which create a breathable, quick‑drying duvet. These properties make it far more difficult for house dust mites to thrive.
With Nordic Sleep, you get an allergy‑friendly duvet that feels much like a traditional down duvet. You can fluff it up easily, and the filling will always redistribute evenly. The difference is that our duvets are significantly more suitable for people with allergies than down duvets and many other alternatives.

All our duvets are also Oeko‑Tex certified, ensuring they are produced responsibly and free from substances that may be harmful to health or the environment, including allergens and hormone‑disrupting chemicals. This makes them an excellent choice for children and young people, who deserve the very best conditions for a healthy sleep environment.

An additional benefit of choosing an allergy‑friendly duvet from Nordic Sleep – especially if you are sensitive to allergens – is that it can be washed repeatedly without losing its shape or comfort. If allergies affect you significantly, you can wash your duvet frequently without compromising its quality.
