Why Kapok Is One of Our Favorite Natural Fibers
Kapok has a soft, airy feel that people often compare to down, but it comes entirely from plants. The fiber grows inside the seed pods of the Ceiba tree and falls naturally when the pods open, so there’s no cutting, machinery, or harm to the tree. Local communities simply gather the fallen pods, clean the fiber by hand, and prepare it for use. It’s one of the most sustainable pillow fills you can choose.
Kapok is naturally fluffy, lightweight, and easy to shape, which makes it perfect for anyone who loves a soft pillow with gentle support. Since it’s a plant-based fiber, it’s also a great option for those looking for a vegan alternative to down.
