What is a thermoregulatory duvet?
If you suffer from night sweats or if you don't have the same sensitivity to heat as your partner, the thermoregulated duvet is the ideal solution.
Definition
A thermoregulatory duvet is a bed covering that adapts to variations in body temperature with the aim of creating an optimal sleeping environment. It is often made from breathable fabrics and fillings that trap heat effectively, while wicking away moisture to prevent feelings of cold or excessive heat.
Why choose a thermoregulating duvet?
Opting for a temperature-regulating duvet has many advantages. First of all, it guarantees a more peaceful sleep by automatically adjusting the temperature according to the sleeper's needs. Whether in winter or summer, it maintains a cozy feeling of warmth without causing overheating.
Additionally, these duvets are ideal for couples with different thermal preferences. They allow everyone to enjoy the level of heat that suits them best. Its manufacturing materials contribute to moisture regulation, which helps prevent excessive sweating and maintain a feeling of freshness.
What is the difference between an anti-sweat duvet and a temperature-controlled duvet?
A sweat-wicking comforter is designed specifically to help manage excessive sweating while sleeping. It is made from materials that have the ability to absorb moisture generated by perspiration and disperse it effectively. These duvets aim to maintain a feeling of freshness despite sweating. In summary, the main difference lies in the primary purpose of each type of comforter. An anti-sweat duvet limits excessive perspiration, while a thermoregulated duvet acts on the general regulation of body temperature .
The different models of thermoregulatory duvets and their properties
The choice of filling is essential to determine the properties of a temperature-regulating duvet. To help you choose the best duvet, here is an overview of the different existing models as well as their associated properties.
Down duvets
Down duvets offer unparalleled comfort thanks to their natural filling from goose or duck feathers. Down is light and insulating. It allows the duvet to maintain an ideal temperature while adapting to seasonal changes. At Bonsoirs, we work with high-end materials and 100% natural down that has not undergone any treatment. The quilting of the down duvet guarantees uniform distribution of the filling to avoid cold spots. The models are often classified by weight to suit everyone's needs.
Wool duvets
Wool duvets are appreciated for their natural thermoregulatory properties. Wool breathes and absorbs moisture. It thus helps to maintain a healthy atmosphere around the mattress, and offers gentle warmth and increased comfort. These duvets are ideal for mid-season.
Cotton duvets
Cotton duvets are light and breathable. They are perfect for hot nights and ideal for people suffering from night sweats. In addition, they are pleasant to the touch and easy to maintain. Machine wash at 40°C is usually sufficient.
Duvets made of synthetic materials
Synthetic duvets , such as those made from silicone microfibers, offer an affordable and hypoallergenic alternative. They are ideal for people sensitive to allergies or for children. Their weight and grammage vary to meet the needs of different seasons. The only downside is that its lifespan is generally shorter than that of natural duvets. At Bonsoirs, we offer lightweight duvets whose filling is 100% recycled.
