Why Choose an Alpaca Duvet Inner?

When choosing a duvet inner, it’s always best to choose natural fibres over man-made alternatives. Alpaca wool is the perfect choice as it offers excellent temperature regulating properties and can help to maintain your body’s optimal internal temperature whilst you sleep.

It’s also naturally hypo-allergenic and dust mite resistant. This is because alpaca wool does not contain lanolin and it does not attract dust and dirt like down and feathers do.

Thermoregulating

Alpaca wool has exceptional thermoregulatory properties, keeping you warm and comfortable throughout the night. This is a natural therapeutic feature that helps you sleep better, regardless of your individual sleeping needs.

Unlike other wools, which are saturated by moisture and unable to regulate temperature, the hollow core follicle in the alpaca fibre has excellent moisture wicking properties to promote even body temperature. It also lacks body oils that are typically found in sheep’s wool which creates an odourless and naturally hypoallergenic product.

Lastly, alpaca duvets are dust mite resistant and do not contain lanolin like sheep’s wool which is a major allergen. This is important for allergy sufferers.

Hypo-allergenic

Alpaca duvet inners are naturally hypo-allergenic and breathable, with the hollow fibre of the duvet wicking moisture away from the skin. This helps keep your body temperature and comfort levels constant throughout the night, without having to constantly change blankets.

This makes it ideal for those who have a history of allergies or suffer from respiratory issues. They are also a great option for people who suffer from frequent night sweats.

Another natural fibre that is often used for duvet inners is wool. It is a great natural insulator, which regulates temperature and offers excellent durability, making it a popular choice for many people.

When choosing a duvet inner look for an alternative to down that has been responsibly sourced, such as GOTS certified wool or an EU kfB certificated wool product. This will help you reduce the amount of cruelty that goes into the production of your duvet.

Lightweight

Our alpaca duvet inners are made from natural, eco-friendly fiber that is incredibly light. The hollow fibre make up of alpaca enables air to get trapped inside the strands, insulating extremely well.

In addition, the strands of the natural fiber are breathable and moisture absorbent, so they will keep you warm during winter, but cool in summer. The material is also hypoallergenic, so it is perfect for sensitive skin types.

We have a wide range of lightweight duvets in stock that are filled with wool or alpaca. Some of them are also breathable, making them ideal for hot sleepers or people who tend to sweat a lot during the night.

These duvets can be machine-washed if you want to. However, they’re best left to air regularly if you’re not using them. They are also odour-free, so you won’t have to worry about them attracting dust mites or other insects. They can last a long time, and are easy to maintain.

Breathable

An alpaca duvet inner will wick away sweat throughout the night, keeping you dry and comfortable. This is especially important if you suffer from night sweats.

This is because the hollow fibres of alpaca wool allow moisture to move freely, allowing your body to regulate its temperature. This keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer, as well as making sure you don’t overheat during the night.

Alpaca wool is also hypoallergenic. Unlike sheep’s wool, it does not contain lanolin which can cause itchiness.

These breathable and cosy comforters are a perfect choice for anyone who suffers from allergies or who prefers to sleep with natural fibres. It is also a great cruelty-free alternative to down, which attracts dust mites and other allergens.
