Kapok is a soft, silky fibre similar to cotton. This naturally renewable raw material only grows wild in Central and South America and Asia, never on plantations – meaning no monocultures and no use of fertilisers or pesticides. We source our kapok from a supplier in southern Germany.
- The hollow fibre structure makes kapok especially lightweight while staying springy and shape-stable – ideal for gently opening the chest and shoulders, for example placed lengthways under the spine or crossways under the shoulder blades
- Tested for harmful substances and certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100
- Cover washable at max. 40°C, not suitable for tumble drying
- Storage tip: keep in a dry, well-ventilated place; avoid prolonged dampness (e.g. from sweat)
