Silicone blankets

 

— synthetic material in the form of polyester fibers treated with silicone. By properties, such blankets are similar to woolen ones: they turn out to be warm and at the same time light, “breathe” well and pass moisture. At the same time, an important advantage of silicone is hypoallergenicity: this material is suitable even for allergy sufferers who do not tolerate natural wool. Also, one of the advantages of such blankets is the ability to instantly restore shape after compression, and this elasticity is practically not lost even after prolonged use.

Note that silicone should not be confused with another synthetic filler — synthetic winterizer: synthetic winterizer products are somewhat cheaper, but less durable and prone to the formation of lumps as they wear out.
