Hex Valley Down Offer Goose Down Duvets and Pillows for a Better Sleep

Pillows made from goose down feather are extremely soft and comfortable. Hex Valley Down offers another reason to purchase goose down feathers- they offer a lifetime warranty on their goose down and goose feather products.

De Doorns, Western Cape (wooeb) August 13, 2014 - There are several reasons that may trigger insomnia, but a major reason could probably be the bedroom environment. An inviting bed with comfortable pillows and duvets are absolutely essential in creating the right atmosphere to sleep.

Goose down and goose feathers are very soft, extremely light and hence trap air well. This allows them to change shape and do not bunch when washed. The light weight also offers excellent insulation against cold. "But comfort does not come cheap. To offer better value for money, we offer lifetime guarantee on all our products including goose down duvets and goose feather duvets. Although the outer cotton casing may need replacement, the feathers can be preserved for several generations," says a spokesperson for Hex Valley Down.

A common complaint against the use of geese feathers and downs is the alleged cruelty against the animals. Unlike other animal products like leather or meat, the goose is not killed for its feather.

Only animals that have reached their full size can produce feathers that offer better insulation. These feathers can be collected by hand from mature geese and do not need over processing. But clusters collected from small animals are inferior and have to be processed harshly to render themselves usable. "Unlike others we humanely harvest these feathers without torturing or killing the animal. Our products are unprocessed and hence last for several years," adds the spokesperson.
