What Kind of Pillows Are Recommended by Allergists?
- Allergy free pillows are made of a hypoallergenic down material in a tight micro-weave that keeps dust mites out of the material. This pillow type eliminates the need for a separate allergy casing.
- Hypoallergenic pillows are affordable and machine washable. Filled with polyester and having a softness similar to a down material, the pillow must be replaced every few years for continuous allergy relief.
- Microfiber pillows are made of a highly compressed synthetic fiber. Pumped into each fiber during the spinning process, an air pocket makes the pillow as comfortable as a traditional goose down pillow and is a good choice for allergy sufferers.
- Hollow fiber pillows are man-made pillows constructed of a siliconized hypoallergenic material that allows them to hold their shape more efficiently than a natural fill pillow.
- Latex pillows are made from natural latex or with both synthetic and natural latex. This hypoallergenic pillow has a firm feel and durability.
