Yak and cashmere: rare fibres for truly premium sleep
In the world of high-end natural mattresses, yak and cashmere are among the rarest and most precious fibres. Long used in luxury clothing, they find an extraordinary application in sleep, offering thermal comfort and exceptional softness.
Yak wool: natural strength and insulation
Yak wool comes from the high plateaus of the Himalayas, where these animals live in extreme climatic conditions. To protect themselves from intense cold, they develop a fibre that is:
- highly insulating
- breathable
- naturally resilient
Inside a mattress, yak wool delivers balanced warmth without overheating, making it ideal for colder climates or for those who love a more enveloping bed.
Cashmere: absolute softness
Cashmere is known for its exceptional fineness and its ability to create a stable microclimate. Placed within the comfort layers of a mattress, it:
- enhances the feeling of welcome and softness
- naturally helps regulate temperature
- offers an incomparable touch
It is a fibre that works quietly, improving sleep night after night.
