Islamorada Kapok Pillow

Our Islamorada Kapok pillow is crafted in Canada in a BSCI factory. BSCI provides a system that helps companies gradually improve working conditions in their supply chain. The outer fabric is  233 thread count 100% cotton and Oeko-tex 100 – certified.  This cloud-like pillow is filled with Grade A silky kapok fiber making it lightweight, soft, and pure. Sold in a drawstring bag that is made from the same fabric as the pillow ticking. Like silk, kapok is temperature regulating and wicks off moisture. So, it is warm in winter and cool in summer.

Not familiar with kapok? Kapok is a cellulosic fiber that comes from the soft, fluffy seed covering of the kapok tree, which grows in rainforests and tropical climates. The tree produces pods, and the kapok fiber is in the pods. The trees continue to produce pods year after year. The pods are harvested without cutting down the tree. Insects are not attracted to the trees, so no pesticides or insecticides are needed for the trees — our kapok fiber is grown naturally.  Kapok fiber is the lightest natural fiber in the world, is composed of 80% air, is 8 times lighter than cotton, and is hydrophobic, vegan, and completely natural. Kapok fiber is breathable, clean, and sustainable. 

Care Instructions: Spot clean only.
