Down percentage

the higher the filling power – the more exclusive the product!

Duvet
The finest duvets with the most exclusive cases are normally combined with a down percentage right up to 100%. All other components, especially small feathers, are sorted away in a very time-consuming process. Down percentages of 80-90% are more common and also give a very good and airy product. 

Pillow
On the other hand, there has to be a certain quantity of feathers for pillows. Feathers have a much greater suspension than down, as they have a fixed shaft, which on selected qualities has a strong, natural bend. The support to the head is obtained via the springiness of the feathers. It is often a matter of taste whether a firm pillow with a low down percentage (typically 15%) is preferred, or a more airy and softer pillow with typically 50% down.
