The importance of sleep duration and sleep quality for health is underestimated by most people. Sleep is not an interruption of our lives, but an essential part of the day. Only with optimal sleep are we mentally and physically fully capable and able to remain healthy in the long term. 

Negative factors

Good sleep is a fundamental prerequisite for both physical and mental health. Stressful life circumstances, an unhealthy diet, and a hectic daily routine can negatively affect sleep quality. Insufficient or disturbed sleep is often the cause of emotional imbalance, physical complaints, and even serious illnesses. 

A widespread condition

It is estimated that more than a quarter of adults in the Western world suffer from sleep deprivation. Changes in lifestyle habits and targeted measures for evening relaxation promote restful sleep and increase physical and mental resilience into old age. 

Positive factors

Undisturbed and restorative sleep depends on various factors. Physical and mental condition plays just as important a role as the right sleep environment. Those who do not feel comfortable at night cannot sleep well. In addition to the mattress, the choice of the right pillow, duvet, and bed linen is crucial. A high-quality duvet made from breathable materials of natural origin, adapted to the season, prevents sweating and ensures a pleasant and hygienic sleep climate. 

The Dauny® range offers a wide selection of duvets and pillows with different filling materials. Bed linen and pyjamas should be made from natural fibres in order to positively influence skin comfort as well.
