Buckwheat hulls offer many benefits. They have anti-dust mite and antibacterial properties and emit a pleasant, soothing scent that promotes relaxation. Additionally, the shape of the hulls helps regulate temperature, providing extra comfort. They are also ergonomic, offering good support, and the amount of hulls can be adjusted to suit the sleeper's needs. Unlike other types of filling materials that need to be replaced quickly over time, buckwheat hulls last much longer. A simple wash is enough to refresh them! When they reach the end of their lifespan (which can be around ten years or more), the hulls can be composted. Our pillows are, therefore, a smart choice for the planet.
