1 Promotes sleep. The silk gel component contains 18 kinds of amino acids; these amino acids emit delicate molecules, also called “sleep factors, ” making people’s nerves more stable. Covering the silk quilt can promote sleep, enhance human vitality and slow down the ageing process.
2 It has good cold-keeping power and constant temperature. Silk has the reputation of being the “Queen of Fibres” and contains the highest “silk volume gap” in fibers, which reduces the heat transfer rate when it is cold and keeps you warmer better than leather or cotton. It also discharges excess heat when it is hot, maintaining the temperature inside comfortable.
3 Skin-friendly fit. The silk quilt itself is strong and stretchy and has a warp and weft mesh structure, which avoids shifting or holes in the quilt during use and allows for long-term use, maintaining comfort and fluffiness.
4 Anti-mite, anti-bacterial, and anti-allergy. Silk’s silk glue content not only gives a delicate and shiny skin but also can prevent the growth of mites and molds, making it even more beneficial to allergic individuals.
5 Moisture absorption and drainage. Silk is 1:5 times more absorbent than cotton and can automatically adjust the humidity inside the quilt. When the human skin is dry, the moisture in the silk replenishes, and when the quilt is more humid, the silk can quickly absorb and dissipate. Therefore, silk quilts are helpful for people with dry skin, rheumatism, and arthritis.
6 Light and soft. The fabric is light in weight and does not add to the body’s burden. Silk fibers are less dense and lighter in texture due to their porous interior.
7 Health. Baby silkworms are so delicate that during silkworm rearing, it is required that no chemical pesticides are used around a 5 km radius and no smoke from chimneys; otherwise, the babies cannot spit silk or even survive. Therefore, mulberry silk is an entirely non-polluting fiber.
8 Durable. Pure and natural, the silk is long and tough, protected by silk glue. With proper care, the highest grade silk quilts can generally be covered for more than 25 years and ordinary filament for more than 10-15 years.
