Living with asthma means more than managing symptoms—it’s about creating a clean, breathable environment that supports your well-being, especially during sleep. Unfortunately, standard pillows can harbor dust mites, mold, and allergens that worsen asthma symptoms and cause restless nights.
At SmartSilk, we believe your pillow should work with your body, not against it. Our asthma and allergy friendly™ certified Silk Lined Pillows are crafted from naturally hypoallergenic materials that reduce irritants, enhance air quality, and provide luxurious comfort—so you can breathe easier and sleep better.
Why the Right Pillow Matters for Asthma Sufferers
Minimize Nighttime Triggers
Many asthma flare-ups are triggered by airborne irritants like dust mites and mold, both of which thrive in traditional pillow materials. SmartSilk’s natural silk lining and tightly woven cotton shell form a barrier that keeps allergens out, helping prevent inflammation and wheezing during the night.
Certified Asthma & Allergy Friendly™
SmartSilk Silk Lined Pillows have been tested and certified by the Asthma Society of Canada, meeting strict standards for allergen control, airflow, and durability. This certification ensures that our pillows are suitable for asthma sufferers looking for proven, reliable solutions.
Breathable, Moisture-Wicking Materials
Asthma symptoms can worsen in a humid environment. That’s why SmartSilk pillows are made from breathable silk and cotton that regulate moisture and temperature, reducing the conditions where allergens and bacteria thrive.
No Harsh Chemicals
SmartSilk pillows are free from synthetic additives like formaldehyde, bleach, and flame retardants. This means you won’t be inhaling irritants that could trigger asthma or skin reactions while you sleep.
