Down Feathers – Nature’s Little Wonder

Since the beginning of time, the properties of down feathers have allowed geese and ducks to stay warm even in extreme cold and icy waters. On the other hand, their exceptional plumage keeps the birds' bodies pleasantly cool in the heat of summer.

Since the beginning of time, the properties of down feathers have allowed geese and ducks to stay warm even in extreme cold and icy waters. On the other hand, their exceptional plumage keeps the birds’ bodies pleasantly cool in the heat of summer. We borrow this material and wisdom from birds, ensuring that with Norsk Dun products, the bed has just the right temperature for sleeping. The down products are made in Norway, making them suitable for Nordic conditions during every season.

All Norsk Dun down feathers come from waterfowl, whose plumage is a unique insulation layer that conducts moisture exceptionally well. Even in the coldest winter, seabirds dive into the water for food, and it’s crucial that when resurfacing, their plumage would repel water. It’s these properties that make down duvets, pillows, and mattress toppers so body friendly. In addition to being an incredibly soft and comfortable material, down feathers also wick moisture away from our bodies while we rest and provide an optimal temperature – so it’s as if you’re sleeping in a softly padded nest.
