Silk Medium Duvet

Why choose a Sanodor Silk Duvet made with Silk Padding?

We are using segments of 5-7 cm of silk yarns, that are perfectly individualized (stick one fiber to the other). These are mechanically laid in a pad that has volume and a lot of air trapped inside; that means in the end - very effective moisture management and very effective thermoregulating capabilities of each Sanodor silk product.
The pad is 100% natural silk, no artificial substances.

Our Sanodor Silk Collection is totally different than the silk bedding products made with mass of long silk fibers which are migrating and agglomerating and have a very low index of comfort.

More than that, discontinuous silk production (pad silk) does not need an intact cocoon to start from.
In partnership with selected local manufacturers, it has been created and developed a particular kind of production in which the moth is set free and is able to leave the cocoon. Such cocoon, is used as a source of raw material of discontinuous silk (100% CRUELTY FREE).
Instead, the continuous silk production process requires larvae killing before they pierce out the cocoon once the mutation has taken place, through the secretion of a corrosive liquid that damages the continuous wire.

Silk. The incredible fibre

Silk is a unique and exclusive fibre.
It isolates from heat and cold, makes an excellent thermal insulation, absorbs excess of humidity and quickly releases into the environment.
It does an excellent job of thermoregulating, and it is exceptional in its breathability.

Silk is a light, elastic, resistant material, not prone to pilling, and it can adapt its own structure to the morphology of the human body. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, antibacterial, perfectly compatible with the human skin, antioxidant and anti-aging.

The delicious sense of comfort offered by products made with Carded Silk Pad derives from the unique characteristics of the silk raw material potentiated by cutting-edge technological processing.

Its advantages include:

• Health benefits
• Durability
• Extraordinary thermoregulation
• Excellent breathability
• Excellent water and water-vapor absorption capacity without causing a “wet” sensation
• Capacity to release excess moisture to the environment
• Excellent ability to adapt structurally to the morphology of the human body and to the design of the product
• Perfect compatibility with human skin naturally hypoallergenic and antibacterial
• Anti-oxidant and anti-aging properties
• Naturalness and eco-sustainability of the raw materials and production process
• Low flammability no flame-propagating, does not melt and stick to skin when exposed to fire.

The multi-layer structure

We are using bates of carded silk that are wave-shaped and multi-layer arranged. This way, we are able to prevent the overcrowding or the migration of the silk inside the product. The silk layers present a density of 100g/sqm, the winter duvets containing three layers. 

Fiber-proof cotton fabric

The oxygen-bleached cotton fabric means less allergies

The cotton fabric is not coated (no polymer layer is applied) in order to prevent the migration of the fibers. The cotton fabric we are using prevents the fibers to migrate inside the fabric (dense fabric made out of very fine yarns). Moreover, mechanical processes are also prevented. The lack of this coating enables the air and moisture flow, significantly minimizing the perspiration.

Benefits:

• Lightweight 
• Non-allergic and anti-mites 
• Naturally insulating material 
• High in air-permeability 
• Helps regulate body temperature, achieving a peaceful, good night sleep through the night, in all seasons

Caring for your silk duvet:

We would recommend gentle dry cleaning - spot cleaning only. Do not tumble dry. Use the duvet only with a duvet cover. Hygienically we would also recommend, when the weather is appropriate, expose the products to sunlight in order to wick away the natural moisture appeared overnight. Furthermore, it should be taken into account that the UV light is a high-power disinfectant.
