How to wash your down pillow

A soft, fluffy down pillow makes every night a little more comfortable. With the right care, you can preserve its fullness and luxurious, airy feel for years to come

PROTECT AND AIR
Use a pillow protector to keep your pillow fresh for longer and reduce the need for washing. Shake and plump it regularly to distribute the down evenly and maintain its fullness. Air it from time to time, too.

WASH WHEN NEEDED
Down pillows do not need to be washed often. When it is time, we recommend machine washing your pillow at 60°C. Always follow the care instructions on the label, and consider an extra rinse to remove any detergent residue.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT DETERGENT
Use a detergent formulated for down and follow the dosage instructions on the packaging. Avoid fabric conditioner. We recommend Five Oceans down detergent.

TUMBLE DRY ON A LOW HEAT
Drying is essential for restoring your pillow’s soft, fluffy feel. Tumble dry on a low heat with a few dryer balls or clean tennis balls to help distribute the down.

Pause the cycle from time to time, take out the pillow and plump it before continuing.

TAKE YOUR TIME
A down pillow can feel dry on the outside while still retaining moisture inside. Take it out, shake it and check carefully. Continue tumble drying until the down is completely dry – this can take time.
