Materials & Care
Our Materials
Weighted Blankets
Outer layer: OEKO-TEX 100 certified cotton outer layer.
Filled with BPA and lead free glass beads within a thin microfibre polyester layer to protect and prevent beads from pooling.
OEKO-TEX certified for chemical safety. For more information about what this means, see question below.
Bamboo Bedding
100% organic Bamboo Lyocell
This silky smooth fabric is as light as a feather against your skin, highly breathable and is moisture wicking. The fabric is also naturally durable, antibacterial and anti fungal. These properties makes it the ideal fabric to sleep with, including for hot sleepers.
The fabric is not only ultra functional & comfortable to sleep with but unlike most bamboo fabrics, which are usually produced using the viscose method, bamboo lyocell is produced using a closed-loop system making it completely eco-friendly. See the next question for more details on how this innovative material is so sustainable.
The covers come in our Glacier colour, which is a soft grey blue with a lustrous finish and a calming tone.
The cover is also OEKO-TEX certified for chemical safety.

Weighted Blanket Cover Tips
We recommend using with the cover on for general protection of your weighted blanket and easy washing, similar to a duvet cover.
Putting The Cover On
The cover has a full side opening with a zipper. This allows for wide open access to the interior of the cover where there are 8 ties to attach to the blanket.
1. Open zip & flip the cover inside out and lay it flat on the floor or bed.
2 Lay the blanket out on top of the cover, and tie all the pieces together.
3. Turn the cover the right-side-out and voilà your weighted blanket will be perfectly aligned inside the cover and anchored in place.
