Simba Duvet
In recent years I’ve really come to fully value sleep and all the aspects of it. I have often been someone who maybe doesn’t tend to get enough sleep, or doesn’t spend much money when it comes to beds, duvets and mattresses. It used to seem to me like a big expense for something that maybe doesn’t make much difference, but believe me when I tell you it actually makes a world of difference! My most recent addition to my sleep routine is the luxurious Simba Hybrid® Duvet.
This luxurious 10.5 Tog duvet is suitable for year-round use. Perfect if you don’t want to keep swapping out or adding extra layers for winter. The Simba Renew Bio™ fill ensures wonderful, down-like softness and warmth, as well as superb breathability for a non-clammy feel; the fresh, cotton outer features our ingenious Stratos® temperature control tech to help dissipate excess heat.
5 Ingenious things about the Simba Hybrid® Duvet
Simba Renew Bio™ – Exceptional comfort
Offering superbly light and gentle warmth, Simba Renew Bio™ forms the soothingly down-like centre of our Hybrid duvets. It’s made from recycled PET bottle fibres gently combed into soft, airy layers, which offers a good, if not better, feel compared with traditional luxury down.
Being superbly breathable, it also allows plenty of airflow through the duvet fill for perfect, non–clammy warmth, and is an ideal alternative to other synthetic or natural fillers.
Stratos® temperature control – AKA your duvet thermostat
Getting too hot at night is a common and disruptive sleep problem, especially during warmer months.
That’s why all Simba Hybrid® duvets feature our ingenious Stratos® technology on one side; this makes the fabric feel instantly cool to the touch, as well as enabling it to react to your body temperature, dissipating any excess heat to keep you cool and dry (yes, even when it has a cover on it). For optimum temperature control, make sure this side is closest to your body as you sleep.
Responsible materials – Sustainable comfort
Simba Renew Bio™ is key to the superb comfort and quality of our pillows and duvets. It’s made from recycled PET bottle fibres. But it also biodegrades at end of life and almost totally dissolves in about two years when deposited in a landfill environment.
We also use natural, breathable cotton in our duvets, but we’re careful where it comes from. We’re delighted to be part of the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI), a not-for-profit organisation which makes global cotton production better for the people who produce it and the environment it grows in. Better Cotton is not physically traceable to end products, but BCI farmers benefit from the demand for Better Cotton in equivalent volumes to those we source.
Practical makes perfect – User-friendly, thoughtful design
There’s no point having all this ingenious tech if you forget the practical stuff. So of course – we haven’t. Our Hybrid duvet is stitched into squares to prevent clumping, it’s machine washable (in a large enough machine) and dries more quickly due to the lightness and nature of the fill fibres.
We’ve also added a QR code to a label on the duvet for easy access to recycling or care advice – and we’ve popped another label at the foot end of the duvet, so you’ll always know which way round it goes.
A recipe for a sustainable sleep
To Celebrate B Corp Month Simba are working with EveryYouth, the national charity for young people experiencing homelessness.
Throughout March, EveryYouth are running Put Youth Homelessness to Bed, to raise vital funds for those who need it the most and to celebrate the value of good sleep. To support Put Youth Homelessness to Bed, for every Simba Hybrid® Pillow purchased in March, £2 will be donated.
All of Simba’s deliveries are 100% carbon neutral. They have worked hard to measure all of the emissions they create and as a result have offset all greenhouse gas emissions for customer deliveries.
Review
Honestly, the tens of thousands of 5-star reviews speak for themselves really. And I have been enjoying the Simba duvet just as much as everyone else seems to be! When it arrived I was surprised at how small it was, but they say great things come in small packages! It is super lightweight and comfortable. I am always a cold person, but this duvet definitely does an incredible job of temperature control. Coming out of winter, I haven’t been cold at all. I’m looking forward to using it in summer, since my old duvet was definitely too hot.
Honestly I would whole-heartedly recommend investing in a Simba Duvet. It has made such a difference to my sleep routine. I haven’t woken up once due to either being too hot or cold which is amazing as I often experienced this before. I’m really impressed with the quality, and I’ve definitely noticed that I’ve been more comfortable and had better sleeps. So whether its a Standard single mattress, mattress topper or pillows, Simba have a huge range to help with every sleepers needs!
