From down to quilt
Selecting the raw material The manufacture of high quality duvets or pillows with down and feather filling starts with the selection of the raw feathers. Polar Dun’s producer DYKON has many years of experience in selecting best goose down, where the suppliers make the well-being of the animals a priority.
Washing Process Washing the raw feathers creates the basis for obtaining a fluffy, no disease or smell and allergy friendly filling product for the quilt or pillow. This is crucial for the comfort and heat insulating qualities which the product will have later. Sorting After the washing process, the washed product is sorted mechanically into down and feathers, so that by mixing it is possible to produce different down/feather mixes for the different types of duvets and pillows which the market demands. Making up the case The case itself, which is used for the duvet or pillow, is made of 100% cotton. The textile quality is especially closely woven and finished, so that it is down and feather proof.
During the making of the case there are strict requirements with regard to complying with stitch lengths and needle types, so that the sewing thread can fill the sewing hole. This prevents the down and feather from passing through the sewing. Filling After a thorough inspection the case is filled with the required down/feather mixture. The filling is done by the fastest and most state-of-the art machinery to be found on the market.
How to choose a right duvet
It is important to take advice on the choice of the right quilt. Quilts can be light, heavy, hot, warm, cool, short, long, cheap, expensive etc. Listen to the advice of the sales person and choose the product that suits your needs best.
However, a down quilt can be many things. The most expensive and finest products contain fully mature down from large grey geese. In quilts with this huge down it is only necessary to fill relatively few grams in the quilt bolster.
When the bolster is also woven of the finest, combed cotton yarns, the quilt will weigh almost nothing. The down has a maximum life span, as it is much tougher and breaks down more slowly, which means that the quilt feels fluffy and voluminous even after many years of use.
Polar Dun Duvets from DYKON are allergy-neutral and are tested continuously. Furthermore, the bolsters are Oeco-Tex certified.
