TENCEL™ Lyocell Duvet

Tog
Tog refers to the degree of warmth and insulation you will feel when you’re under your Duvet. The tog scale ranges from a cool 1.5 tog to a very snug 15 tog, essentially the higher the tog, the warmer the Duvet. Your sleeping style and preference should guide you into choosing the best Duvet for yourself - if you prefer to feel cooler from the breeze of the air conditioner, you may consider purchasing a Duvet on the lower end of the tog scale.

Material
The filling of a Duvet can determine the quality of your experience. Those who have accustomed themselves to natural filled Duvets swear by them and claim that there is no better way to stay warm and cozy all night long. Natural fillings like goose down and feather are soft and warm. They also tend to be heavier and larger to give you that added pressure that feels like a hug when you sleep at night. However, this depends on its down to feather ratio - the higher the ratio, the lighter and warmer the Duvet. On the other hand, if you have sensitive skin or allergies you may want to consider exploring synthetic or semi-synthetic fillings. These duvet are hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking, hence more breathable and gentle on skin than natural Duvets.

Hypoallergenic
A Duvet that is synthetic is a safe bet as they are manufactured to be hypoallergenic and anti dust mite. This makes it suitable for all skin types. An example of a semi-synthetic material is TENCEL™ fibres. TENCEL™ fibres’ hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking abilities make it the best sheets for people with sensitive skin or skin disorders, such as eczema or psoriasis.

Fill Power & Weight
Fill power is a measurement of the volume taken up by the filling in a Duvet which accounts for its insulating ability. The higher the fill power, the lighter, more breathable and more durable the duvet will be. Fill weight is the weight of the fill inside a Duvet per square metre. As the fill weight increases, so does the weight of the Duvet. It also determines the softness of a Duvet. Generally, a Duvet with high fill power will have a low fill weight so as to suit the needs of users in warmer weather.

Duvet / Quilt Recommendation for Fill Power/ Fill Weight based on preferences:
Lightweight, summer use - 400 and below Fill Power, 150 - 250 GSM
Snug and cozy - 600 to 800 Fill Power, 300 - 400 GSM
Extra warmth - 800 and above Fill Power, 450 GSM and above

Some people prefer sleeping with something much lighter, and just use the fan. Light covers like Weavve's  Waffle Knit Blanket  may be more suitable for you than a heavier duvet or comforter.
If you have insomnia or other sleep related issues, try out a  weighted blanket, which utilizes deep pressure therapy to induce calm sleep.

The Smoothest, Most Comfortable Duvet – inside and out
Weavve’s TENCEL Duvet is constructed using Lenzing’s TENCEL™ fibres. The TENCEL™ we use contains 100% Lyocell fibres, the most advanced, comfortable and durable generation of TENCEL™ fibres.
The use of 100% TENCEL™ Lyocell for our duvet exterior and filing gives the duvet an extremely luxurious feel - smooth, soft and cool. The high but authentic 350 thread count fabric is very breathable but prevents leaking of the filling, resulting in higher durability without sacrificing comfort. TENCEL™ Lyocell is naturally gentle and hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for people with sensitive skin.
From a design perspective, the pocketed construction keeps the filling evenly distributed and loop ties ensures the duvet stays in place in the duvet cover especially for larger sizes.

Sleep Fresh and Safe every night

TENCEL™ Lyocell has great moisture management which gives it anti-bacterial and anti-odour properties.

Our TENCEL Lyocell Duvet Insert is treated with DuPont’s SILVADUR™ Advanced Microbial Control technology, eliminating bacteria, fights mould and fungi that cause odour, discoloration and degradation of the duvet (tested to be effective up to 50 washes)

Our duvet (and bed sheets) are labelled with the  STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEK®, certifying that our duvet is toxin-free, making it safe for everyone, including babies and those with sensitive skin. As duvets are not washed as frequently as bedsheets, Weavve’s Lyocell Duvet is designed and tested to stay safe and fresh for longer, added with the ability to fight bacteria, mould & fungi, and odour.

Keeping the environment in mind
TENCEL™ lyocell fibres originate from 100% sustainably sourced Eucalyptus wood. Its closed loop production process recycles water and solvents at a recovery rate of more than 99%. These fibres are also certified as compostable and biodegradable, and can fully revert back to nature.

The Sleep Council advises that duvets should be replaced every 5 years but higher quality duvets also tend to last a little longer than others. Here are some tell-tale signs that your duvets need to be swapped out for a new one:
-Feels thin and limp
-Feels lump and uneven
-Filling is leaking out
It is important to always protect it with a duvet cover to maximise its lifespan.

Since most duvets are used on a regular basis, if not every night, it is inevitable that it will need to be cleaned periodically. Because Weavve’s Lyocell duvet is designed differently as compared to typical blankets and duvet inserts, they require different care. To preserve the quality of the fabric and extend the life of your TENCEL duvet, utmost care should be taken when laundering them. You may also want to try airing your Lyocell duvet out on a sunny day in between washes.

How Often To Wash a Duvet
Generally, duvets are used with a duvet cover hence the duvet itself does not need to be washed as frequently as your other bed sheets or bedding. We recommend washing it every 3 to 4 months a year, or at least twice a year.

How to Wash a Duvet
When washing the TENCEL Duvet, always use cool water (below 20°C). Our duvet is machine washable but best to hand wash. Do not soak. Use a gentle laundry detergent free of bleach and fabric softener so as to not destroy the Lyocell fibres.

How to Dry a Duvet
Taking proper precautions when drying the TENCEL duvet will keep it in good, usable condition for longer. For best results, line (hang) or flat dry it naturally, away from direct sunlight. When line drying, be sure that it hangs evenly so that the Lyocell fibre is proportionately distributed and it does not lose its shape. Consider draping the damp duvet over a drying rack or chair.

What to Avoid
Avoid soaking your duvet in water over time. Avoid using detergent that contains bleach or fabric softener. As fabric softeners can build up in the material of the Lyocell blanket, causing it to feel scratchy or stiff. Avoid using a dryer as the filling may fall out and high temperatures may damage the Lyocell fibre. Lastly, avoid ironing your Lyocell Duvet.
