Monarch Hypodown Hypoallergenic Down Comforter

The Monarch's long staple Egyptian cotton fabric makes it the perfect choice for a sumptuous yet affordable night's sleep. These comforters are edged with satin piping and stitched with a simple yet elegant 12 inch square baffled box design. The comforters are filled with Hypodown - a clean blend of pure Hungarian goose down and syriaca clusters (the soft hollow fibers of the milkweed plant). The resulting blend of fill wicks moisture away from your body far more quickly than either down or synthetics. It is lightweight to encourage circulation and makes very cozy comforters. These value priced Hypodown hypo-allergenic Hungarian goose down comforters have a thread count of 300. Thread count is the number of threads per inch of a fabric. The higher the count, the smoother and silkier the fabric feels. The higher thread count also provides a stronger barrier to any of the fill escaping from the comforter.

Hypodown is Hypoallergenic: Goose down can cause allergic reactions in some people. It is not the down that does this, however, but rather it is the dust particles remaining on the down after washing and processing. Our comforters and pillows are guaranteed by the manufacturer to be hypoallergenic. This is accomplished by combining syriaca clusters (commonly known as milkweed) with the down. The syriaca clusters enhance the natural properties of the down as well as stabilize the components that cause people to suffer down allergies from their comforters. Note: Hypodown has been tested in the offices of Allergy and Asthma Doctors in the United States and Europe. These tests prove that most people who are allergic to down can use Hypodown without reactions.

Syriaca clusters

Syriaca clusters are hypoallergenic and stabilize the components in down that cause allergic reactions when used as fill in comforters. Syriaca floss is a natural hollow fiber that is hypo-allergenic by itself. When syriaca floss and goose down are combined, the floss traps and suppresses the dust and dander to which some people have allergic reactions to. These clusters actually enhance the natural properties of down and make a fantastic fill for comforters and pillows. Syriaca clusters are cleaned and separated from the pods through mechanical action and air. No chemicals are used. It takes 800 pods to make one pound of Syriaca clusters.
