SUSTAINABILITY MEETS LUXURY —
AND A BETTER DUVET INSERT
No fiber better moderates your temperature than alpaca. By enclosing the alpaca fiber in GOTS-certified organic cotton percale, we’ve created one of the most breathable and functional duvet inserts in the world. What’s more, the insert won’t shift or bunch up on you. And in using organic, natural, and renewable materials, our Alpaca Duvet Insert marries responsibility with luxury, made with your health — and the planet’s — at the forefront of its design.
THE WONDERS OF ALPACA FIBER
Living in the harsh, wind-swept Andes at elevations above 12,000 feet, alpaca developed a highly sophisticated wool. It’s a natural wonder, prized for its gentle texture and unparalleled performance. It has the delicate feel of cashmere and the functionality of sheep’s wool. It's lightweight, temperature and moisture regulating, flame-resistant, antimicrobial, and hypoallergenic. Once reserved for Incan royalty, alpaca wool is now one of the most sought-after fibers in the world.
ORGANIC COTTON
We craft our Alpaca Duvet Insert with best practices for safe, sustainable, and renewable textile manufacturing in compliance with the Global Organic Textile Standard — the gold environmental and social responsibility standard. The cotton percale encasing the natural alpaca fibers is GOTS-certified organic. Organic certified cotton is more breathable than synthetic alternatives. Our duvet insert is not just high-functioning; it’s also better for you, our farmers, and the planet.
THE MATCH FOR YOUR ORGANIC DUVET COVER
Choose organic, natural materials inside and out. Our Alpaca Duvet Insert fits perfectly inside our Organic Linen Duvet Cover and Organic Cotton Duvet Cover. We make both with certified organic natural materials that are renewable, safe, and highly breathable, like alpaca fiber.
TWO WEIGHTS FOR EVERY SEASON
We craft our Alpaca Duvet Insert in two weights — all season and lightweight. The lightweight version is better suited for warmer months and climates, while we design the thicker, all-season option for year-round snuggling. Remember that alpaca wool and organic cotton are incredibly breathable and thermoregulating — effectively moderating your body temperature so that you’re either cool or warm when you need to be. As a result, both weights will have versatile uses.
SIMPLE CARE
Spot clean only. We recommend a duvet cover — like our Organic Linen Duvet Cover or Organic Cotton Duvet Cover — to avoid everyday wear and stains. Occasionally, hang the insert in direct sun to restore freshness. Frequent fluffing will help retain its loft.
CLIMATE NEUTRAL CERTIFIED
As a Climate Neutral Certified company since 2019, we've measured Avocado's annual cradle-to-consumer emissions, offset them by investing in climate change solutions, and started taking real action to reduce our emissions. We also recognize offsets and reductions aren't enough. Solving climate change will require systemic solutions. That's why, through our partnership with Ceres and the American Sustainable Business Network, we also advocate for state and federal policies that support equitable solutions to the climate crisis.
