What are the end uses of Recron Fibrefill?
Recron Fibrefill is used as filling for pillows, decorative pillows, cushions, bolsters, quilts & comforters, mattresses, mattress toppers, mattress pads, sleeping bags, furniture cushions, furniture backs, insulated garments and soft toys.

How does Recron Fibrefill compare vis-à-vis Cotton?
Due to its outstanding loft, Recron Fibrefill can give the same support level of cotton with 30-35% less filling quantity. So products made out of Recron Fibrefill are far lighter and softer than products filled with cotton.

Unlike cotton, Recron Fibrefill is highly resilient and durable and does not form lumps in a short time. Recron Fibrefill is fully washable. Products filled with Recron Fibrefill are far more hygienic than cotton as moisture, dust and germs do not affect them.

How does Recron Fibrefill compare vis-à-vis recycled fibres?
Recycled fibres are solid (non-hollow) fibres, generally produced by crude methods. Recron Fibrefill, being hollow in nature, can give the same support level of recycled fibres with 15-20% less filling quantity.

Unlike recycled fibres, Recron Fibrefill is highly resilient, durable, bulky, lofty and soft. It also gives long and consistent performance and is more hygienic than recycled fibres since moisture, dust and germs do not affect it.

Will Recron Fibrefill being synthetic, be hot & uncomfortable?
As Recron Fibrefill is hollow in nature, the products filled with it have better air circulation. This ensures that no heat is generated, resulting in better comfort.

Is Recron Fibrefill hygienic?
Recron Fibrefill is very high on hygiene. It is fully washable and non-allergic, thus, being safe even for infants. Recron Fibrefill is inherently moisture and dust mite resistant and avoids infestation. Recron Fibrefill filled pillows is also orthopedically recommended. Due to the high resilience property, they can readily adjust to the shape of the body and recover immediately after use and retain this property for repeated use. It meets the requirements of Oeko-Tex standard 100 (product class 1), indicating the absence of harmful substances.

Is Recron Fibrefill washable?
Products made of Recron Fibrefill can be easily washed using normal detergents and left to dry. However, these products should not be wrung during washing and drying as the physical shape of the products may get deformed. It is also recommended to use gentle washing method (preferably hand washing)
