Are Down Pillows Hypoallergenic?

Down pillows are not automatically hypoallergenic, but high-quality down pillows can be suitable for many allergy-sensitive sleepers. Properly cleaned and purified down removes dust, allergens, and impurities. When combined with a tightly woven cotton shell, a well-made down pillow can help reduce allergen exposure and remain comfortable for everyday use. Certifications such as OEKO-TEX® and NOMITE® indicate controlled materials and suitability for allergy-sensitive sleepers when used as intended.
