More about Sleeping pillow
Organic pillows made from natural materials such as kapok, virgin wool and natural latex combine comfortable support with a pleasantly dry sleeping environment. This selection includes pillows, cervical support pillows and quilted pillows from Prolana and KOMA schlafgut — from the LENA cotton baby pillow to the premium camel-hair quilted pillow. They use natural fillings instead of synthetic fibres.
How to recognise a good organic pillow
- The filling determines how it feels: Kapok feels light and airy, while sheep's wool and camel hair balance temperature and moisture. Natural latex provides resilient, stable support. Quilted pillows filled with wool balls or latex flakes combine a soft cotton cover with a springy core.
- The pillow type should suit your sleeping position: A cervical support pillow such as the sheep's wool model keeps the cervical spine aligned. A classic pillow or quilted pillow can be shaped more freely, while the VARIO comfort pillow made from natural latex offers even, stable support.
- The little ones are catered for too: The LENA cotton baby pillow gives children a pillow of their own.
Our brands: why these in particular
All the pillows in this selection come from two brands: Prolana and KOMA schlafgut. Both use natural materials such as kapok, virgin wool, camel hair, natural latex and cotton in their pillows instead of foam and polyester wadding. The range extends from the Schurwollkügelchen Kissen BOBO and premium quilted pillows filled with wool balls or latex flakes to ergonomic cervical support pillows: a suitable option for every type of sleeper, curated by Taiga.
Which filling is right for you?
Kapok is a lightweight plant fibre from the seeds of the kapok tree: breathable and naturally inhospitable to dust mites, making it a good choice for allergy sufferers. Virgin wool regulates moisture and temperature, creating a dry, comfortable sleeping environment. Natural latex, made from the sap of the rubber tree, adapts to your head and neck while retaining its shape — ideal if you need noticeable support. Cotton, meanwhile, is soft, breathable and easy to care for.
Which organic pillow is suitable for allergy sufferers?
Pillows filled with kapok are a tried-and-tested choice: the fibre is naturally resistant to dust mites. Regular airing also helps keep the pillow fresh and dry.
What is the difference between a cervical support pillow and a classic pillow?
A cervical support pillow has a firmer, ergonomic shape and keeps the cervical spine in a straight line while you sleep. A classic pillow or quilted pillow is softer and can be shaped to suit you — many people find this more comfortable, but it provides less targeted support.
How should you care for a natural pillow?
Fluff it up daily, air it regularly in the fresh air and avoid direct sunlight — this keeps the filling loose and dry. Many natural fillings are not suitable for machine washing, so check your pillow's care label before washing it.
