Holofiber blankets

There is an opinion among people that natural insulation, as a filler for products, prevails over synthetic substitutes. According to numerous consumer reviews, this is a misconception. Holofiber blankets have become very popular as comfortable and functional products.

Manufacturers offer a wide variety of bed linen, but the modern filler - holofiber has appeared quite recently. It is gradually gaining more popularity. The holofiber filler is a synthetic polyester fiber. This material has excellent insulating properties due to its hollow structure. It creates a good air gap, which is designed to isolate the human body from the external environment.

The main feature of the material is the method of its manufacture. The filler elements do not stick together, making the blanket soft and light. According to the new technology, all filler fibers are soldered at high temperatures. The canvas of modern filler is created from a large number of microscopic springs, which makes the blanket weightless and resilient. Holofiber products are great for sleeping, they are practical and have many positive characteristics.

Each holofiber model has its own thermal level. It is formed according to the density of the insulation itself.

On each blanket package, the density parameter is indicated by dots:

• Five dots means extra-warm winter blankets with a filling weight of 900 grams per square meter.
• Four points - a warm blanket weighing 500 grams per square meter.
• Three dots represent an all-season product of 350 grams per square meter.
• A lightweight blanket weighing 220 grams per square meter has two dots on the package.
• One dot is the thinnest summer blanket. The filler weighs 180 grams per square meter.

The new development of manufacturers is an all-season blanket, it is universal. In this version, with the help of buttons and buttons, two types are connected - a light and a summer product. Both models are used in the winter, and on hot summer days they are disconnected.

There are several options for distributing modern filler in a blanket:

• The quilted filling is connected to the upper case of the product. It has a big drawback - the service life is minimal. After a short period of time, the filler begins to move away from the cover and stray in the middle of the blanket. The product has a low price.
• The karostep method has a stitch of patterns and designs. The insulation is securely fixed to the cover.
• The most reliable is the cassette filling of blankets. The method is the most expensive. Due to the fact that the holofiber filler is evenly distributed in the product, its movement under the cover is impossible. The entire product is divided into separate sections.

Like all products, models filled with holofiber insulation have their pros and cons, the latter properties are much less.

Positive characteristics:

• High temperature regulation. Thanks to its hollow structure, the insulation adapts to the environment. On cool days, the blanket will warm up and keep the warmth inside, and on hot days it will not allow a person to overheat, creating coolness.
• Good air circulation. Holofiber fibers are air permeable. The product is breathable and the surrounding air circulates inside.
• Due to the increased wear resistance, the product does not crumple and quickly restores its original shape.
• The product, the filler of which is holofiber, absorbs all excess moisture.
• The synthetic fiber has a hollow structure. Products made from such material are light and airy.

• The filler is hypoallergenic and suitable for people with an increased allergic reaction or asthma. In such a blanket, there is no smell at all, and it is not able to absorb foreign odors. Dust mites in synthetic filler are not capable of vital activity.
• No glue components are used for holofiber blankets, making them environmentally friendly and safe for health.
• It is possible to wash the product in an automatic washing machine, without adding special detergents. The blanket dries quickly and does not require special storage conditions.
• The material has good fire resistance. The insulation is not flammable and is not capable of spreading smoldering.
• A variety of models for any bed. The product can be: for children; 1.5 bedroom or double.
• Static stress does not accumulate, so dust does not settle on the product.
• Affordable price range.

Two main disadvantages: not everyone will be comfortable using the blanket, it is too warm; after frequent washes, the filler loses its shape. There is also a possibility that such a blanket will lose its lightness and elasticity due to frequent use.

Each person buys a blanket based on their preferences and desires.

If you choose holofiber insulation, pay attention to some features:

• A variety of materials are used to make the blanket cover. The best option is to purchase a product with a natural top layer and high strength characteristics.
• Sewing must be of high quality. Protruding ends of threads, crooked stitches, unstitched sections of the cover with visible filler are not allowed in the product.
• The blanket should be odorless. If there is an unpleasant odor from the product, it means that synthetic glued fibers or other unacceptable additives have been added to the filler.
• Purchase a holofiber blanket only in trusted stores and from well-known manufacturers.
• Well-made packaging speaks of a good manufacturer. The cheapest items are put in bad bags. All the characteristics of the blanket and filler are prescribed on the package.
• Do not lose sight of the attractive appearance of the presented models.

If the model has a low price, which buyers pay attention to first of all, then the product has flaws. You should not skimp on quality, because the additives can be toxic and cause allergic reactions in the consumer. When you don't know which one is better to buy a holofiber blanket, customer reviews will help you decide. Based on the recommendations of experts, it is better to choose a product based on breathable materials.

Each material and product must be cared for, and some of them require special care methods, in order for the blanket to keep warm for many years. Models with holofiber also need to be treated especially.

When using, you must follow a few simple rules:

1. In the process of washing the product, you should not use chlorine-containing detergents.
2. You can wash it by hand or in an automatic machine at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees.
3. Dry the blanket away from direct sunlight.
4. Ventilate the product twice a year.
5. Choose natural cotton bedding to avoid the build-up of static electricity.

During long-term use, the blanket may deform and become unusable. It will lose its positive characteristics, become less elastic and heavier.

To restore its original appearance, it is required to open the cover and remove all insulation. Treat it with a brush specially designed for wool fibers. It should be borne in mind that the original state cannot be completely returned, but the blanket will return its weightlessness and restore thermoregulation. Returning the holofiber to the product, give it its original shape.

The holofiber blanket is very warm, weightless and practical. If properly operated and looked after, then it will delight the owner for many years and warm in the cold seasons. In comparison with synthetic winterizer, models with holofiber are more natural, because no adhesive components are used in the manufacture. Synthepon blankets are not intended for shelter during the winter seasons. Also, synthetic winterizer can emit harmful substances.
