ECO & SUSTAINABILITY

What is GRS?

GRS stands for Global Recycling Standard. This is the recycling, sustainability and environmentally friendly standard we have been awarded. You can read more about this here.

Are your down and feather products ethical?

All of our feather and down products are sourced with our down commitment in mind. We promise to always guarantee quality products, that they have been tested and verified to meet our claims and are made of responsibly and ethically sourced components. Not only that, but we promise to never incur any feather or down live plucking, that these have all been sourced as by-products of the food industry, much like leather and wool, and that these products can be fully traceable back to the source and further.

Can I have further information on 'ethical sourcing'?

By advertising our duvets as ‘ethnically sourced’ means that we can trace the filling materials in each of our Down and Feather and Down filled products back to the farm area – ensuring that the animals involved were raised following good animal husbandry and were not subject to any cruel practices such as live plucking or force feeding. As we use animal by-products, animal welfare is something we are very mindful of. To guarantee this we only work with partners who share our stringent standards and total commitment to animal welfare. We annually audit all of our supply partners to ensure compliance. The audits are done through the independently recognised IDFL (International Down and Feather testing Laboratory).

Why is Smartdown vegan?

Using silky soft fibres made out of recycled PET plastic bottles, we’ve created a new generation of luxury bedding. The fibres are transformed from the plastic bottles using a pioneering fibre-blowing technique and spun to create small individual down-like clusters which trap air in between one another to ensure insulation and warmth similar to goose down and feathers. Where normal duvet fibres are layered, the unique structure of the Smartdown® fibres means they can be blown like feather and down in to the cotton duvet casings and then sewn in a square cassette pattern to create volume and make the duvet plump and lofty.

Not only that, but the Smartdown® clusters are more durable than feather and down, so they will keep their structure and performance for longer.


MY ORDER & ORDERING

I've made a mistake on my order, can I amend this?

If you have already paid for your order, only delivery details can be amended. If you wish to amend items purchased your original order will need to be refunded and you will need to place a new order.

PRODUCTS

What is a tog?

A duvet’s tog rating indicates the amount of warmth it provides; the higher the tog, the warmer the duvet.

What season for what tog?

An adult winter duvet is usually between 10.5tog (the most popular option) and a 13.5tog, with a summer duvet around 4.5tog. It is recommended that duvets for babies and young children should be no more than 4.5tog.

Why do you not use fill power?

Fill power was originally introduced in the manufacturing of feather filled outdoor jackets and is used as a measurement to determine weight and insulating ability of down & feather. We have removed the fill power point from the description as it isn’t necessarily applicable to natural duvets as it can be confusing and doesn’t explain the duvet specification.

Is Four Seasons the same as All Seasons?

Yes, both descriptions are used to detail the combination duvet option.

Which duvets are all seasons/four seasons?

In The Fine Bedding Company natural range the Goose Down duvet & the Goose Feather & down duvet are available in Four Seasons. If you prefer a fibre filled duvet the combination is available in Boutique Silk, Breathe and the Spundown ranges. In our Nimbus Emporium collection we have our Gold, Silver and Bronze ranges - the 4.5 tog and 9.0 tog are bought individually but have buttons and button holes respectively so that they can be used together as a four season (13.5 tog) luxury combination duvet.

How does a four seasons/all seasons duvet clip together?

Nimbus emporium duvets have buttons and button holes. The duvets from The Fine Bedding Company range use press studs to attach.

What do you mean by synthetic and natural?

Synthetic means man-made fibres and natural is feather/down filling with cotton covers.

My natural product really smells! Is there something wrong with it? How do I remove this?

We can assure you, there is nothing wrong with your product. Natural products to tend to have a particular ‘smell’ to them, which is generally attributed to natural products. We do find that in the heat, this smell becomes stronger. This could be down to you being hot as well and potentially sweating during your sleep.

We advise regular airing of products during this time and potentially washing your products, however please read all product washing instructions before you do this! If a product is washed, please ensure that the product is completely dry before you put it back on the bed, shaking the product thoroughly to avoid clumping. Where a product can’t be washed, airing in a well ventilated room or even the garden is just as good.

In some instances, such as with pillows, these may fit in our tumble dryer. As above, please read all product washing instructions before you do this! We do not usually advise to tumble dry natural products, however in desperate situations you could potentially put your pillows in the tumble dryer on a cool, low, reduced temperature spin for a very short time with a tumble drying fragrance cloth. Please check your products repeatedly to make sure they are ok and that there is no scorching to the feathers.

Is a product coming back in stock? When will this be?

Many of our products are core lines and should be in stock. However, we do from time to time discontinue our products. So if you do see a line that is out of stock and would like to enquire about availability, please contact us here.

What is the difference between a mattress topper and a mattress enhancer?

Mattress toppers tend to be of a higher thickness than an enhancer – both add an additional layer of padding and extra comfort. They are especially good for providing extra softness to a mattress that is maybe a little too hard or for extending the life of an ageing mattress.

I stayed at a hotel that featured your bedding and I'd like to buy it. Where can I find it?

Please email hospitality@finebeddingcompany.co.uk with what hotel you stayed at and when and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

I suffer neck problems, which pillow should I buy?

We have a variety of neck supprt products, including the Head and Neck Pillow, Dual Support Memory Foam Pillow and the Traditional Memory Foam Pillow, along with various V-shaped back support pillows. You can view the full range here.

Although our products have been designed with these particular ailments in mind, we recommend that you consult your doctor or medical professional before purchase if you are specifically using the product as a tool to reduce pain.

Dual Layer Topper – 8cm depth with 35 cm straps

Spundown Enhancer – 3cm depth with 35cm straps

What is modal?

Modal is a natural fibre derived from wood pulp, which is very soft and beathable. It’s used in fabrics and fillings mixed with cotton or polyester to provide softness or temperature and moisture regulation. You can find modal in our Breathe range.

What makes your Nimbus Hungarian products so special?

Hungarian goose feather and down is one of the highest grades of feather currently on the market. They are graded so highly due to their softness, warmth and durability, meaning that they will keep their luxury properties for longer, drape beautifully on the bed and will keep you warm and cosy. We pride ourselves on our ability to guarantee that all our natural filled products are made to the highest quality, using responsibly sourced fillings. We sustainably and responsibly source all of our natural down and feather fill.

Which of your products comply with Fire & Furnishing Regulations?

Fire & Furnishing Regulations only apply to pillows and toppers and all our pillows and toppers comply with Fire & Furnishing Regulations. If it doesn’t pass the test, then we won’t sell it to you.

How do I wash my duvet/pillow/mattress topper/enhancer?

If you have already purchased your product the washing instructions are printed on the sewn in sash label. All washing instructions are also listed on our website on the product information page. PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK THE PRODUCT LABEL BEFORE YOU WASH OR LAUNDER YOUR PRODUCTS.

How do I dry my products after washing?

Generally speaking, we recommend any synthetic duvet that has been washed to be air dried thoroughly to ensure the filling is completely dry. To ensure the synthetic duvet or pillow is completely dry, we would suggest weighing the product before and after you wash and dry the item – if the product is heavier after drying, this implies there’s still water in the product and has therefore not been dried thoroughly. PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK THE PRODUCT LABEL BEFORE YOU WASH OR LAUNDER YOUR PRODUCTS.

Where does the fine bedding source its materials?

We source our materials worldwide and we select our suppliers carefully with careful consideration taking to working conditions. We are members of Sedex – the supplier ethical data exchange and all our tier 1 suppliers are audited annually by third paries to ensure compliance.

What is the lowest tog you do?

The lowest tog we offer is a 3.0 tog in our Spundown range.

Why do your Junior duvets only go up to 4.0 tog?

Young children cannot regulate their body temperature like adults, which means that they would be warmer under the same duvet than an adult. It is recommended that children 12+ months sleep under no more than a 4.0 tog duvet. Please do not use a duvet for children less than 12 months old to prevent risk of overheating.

Why should children under 12 months not have a pillow?

We don’t recommend that children under the age of 12 months sleep with a pillow due to the risk of suffocation. Children between the ages of 12 months and two years should sleep with a small, lightly filled pillow to prevent neck strain.

I have night sweats. What products do you recommend?

To keep cool in the evening we recommend using a lower tog and selecting a duvet with a breathable fabric or filling which can be washed frequently to be kept fresh. Our Breathe duvet contains modal and can help temperature regulate, search for it in our duvet section.

What size washing machine drum will fit my duvet in?

Because of our specially designed siliconised fibres, our duvets will scruntch down quite small. We recommend that a standard 7kg washing machine will fit our king size duvet or smaller, while 5kg will fit a double or single in. You can see a guide on how to wash your duvet here. PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK THE PRODUCT LABEL BEFORE YOU WASH OR LAUNDER YOUR PRODUCTS.
