These certifications mean that the wool used for this comforter is pure wool, the product doesn't contain any harsh chemicals and is approved for use for infants. Fast shipping (disregard 's estimate).
- THERMOREGULATORY: Helps regulate child's body temperature & allows the skin to breathe. Recommended for those who experience night sweats. Thermostatic properties of camel hair regulate temperature under all thermal conditions. It makes child's body warmer in cold temperatures and cooler in warm temperatures. This is how Mongolian camels got adapted to extreme temperature fluctuations in the desert where the temperature ranges from 100 degrees in summer to minus 40 degrees in winter.
- HYPOALLERGENIC: Ideal solution for those who are allergic to polyester or other artificial fibers. Wool sanitized with non-toxic detergent. Dust-mite resistant. Encased in dense fabric that prevents shedding. Not treated with fire retardant or any harsh chemicals. ANTIBACTERIAL: Wool is naturally antibacterial and doesn't have to be cleaned as often. MOISTURE WICKING: Wool absorbs liquid without feeling damp or losing its insulating properties. It wicks sweat keeping the skin dry and warm.
- WOOL SUPERIOR TO SYNTHETICS: Camel wool is more durable and lighter than lambswool. Compared to goose down, wool comforters regulate temperature, have no poking/flying feathers and fill doesn't shift like it does in feather filled comforters. Unlike polyester/down alternative bedding, wool comforters are antistatic (don't cling to the skin), lighter, temperature regulating, don't harbor dust mites, safer (wool is fire proof), biodegradable (synthetics clutter landfills for decades).
ECO-FRIENDLY. Manufacturing of polyester/down alternative bedding releases air pollutants while wool is self-renewable resource that doesn't affect the environment. Moreover, wool is biodegradable and decomposes into natural fertilizer when discarded at the end of the product's useful life. Synthetics are full of chemicals and clutter landfills for many decades. CARE: Machine washable but can't be dried in a dryer. Stains can be removed with soap & water. Can be dry cleaned. Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry in the sun or a warm place, can place towels underneath to soak up the water. Recommended to use with a duvet cover to keep it clean, protect from pet hair and extend the life of the comforter. It is easier to wash a duvet cover than a comforter. Heavy loads can damage your washer and comforters usually take a long time to dry. No washing required before using. PERFECT FOR ALL SEASONS: Due to wool's temperature regulating properties this comforter can be used all year long. Camel wool is one of the most expensive kinds of wool and is generally considered superior to other types of wool. The wool is collected by hand, plucked, combed or shorn away during the molting season. Camel wool is known for its thermostatic properties. It stabilizes the temperature by insulating the animal from the extreme cold conditions in the desert at night and keeping it cool from the heat in the day. Camel hair is lightweight because it is hollow. The hollow space in the center acts as a vacuum making the wool super insulating without added weight. Camel hair provides the best insulation of all the types of wool, which is why it is used for comforters, coats & Mongolian yurts (tents). Camels produce longer fibers than sheep which results in a more durable & longer lasting product. Research shows that if a child sleeps on/under wool he/she will fall asleep faster & will have more very important deep sleep.
