types of pillow

There are many different types of pillows, categorised by their fillings. These fall into two main groups: natural and synthetic pillows.

Natural pillows include feather and down pillows and wool pillows. Feather and down combines duck feather and duck down to create a supremely luxurious and comfy headrest. Wool pillows use thick, yet breathable, wool fibres which are a little firmer than feather and down pillows.

The different types of synthetic pillow include hollowfibre, memory foam, cool and anti-allergy.

memory foam pillows

offer unrivalled support. They respond to the imprint of your body, ensuring maximum support for your head, neck and shoulders.


anti-allergy pillows

are nade from hypoallergenic materials. This makes them great for those who suffer from allergies as they help to prevent build-up of dust, pollen and other nasty allergens.


hollow fibre

are a type of pillow which provide excellent bounce back. They're super springy and known to offer high levels of support, making them great for those who suffer with neck or back pain.

Choosing the best pillow for you

While pillows differ depending on their fillings, they can also be graded by their comfort. This is similar to mattress comfort grades and can range from a soft/medium pillow, such as a feather and down, to a firm pillow such as memory foam. Choosing the best comfort grade for you depends largely on your sleeping position.

Pillows for side sleepers

Pillows for side sleepers are typically a medium to medium-firm comfort grade. This is to offer optimum support to your head and neck while cusioned.

Pillows for back sleepers

Pillows for back sleepers are most often a medium comfort grade. They help to avoid craning your neck yet at the same time keep you gently cushioned.

Pillows for front sleepers

Pillows for front sleepers are generally a soft/medium comfort level. This is again to keep the natural alignment of the spine without raising your head too much. The soft natural fillings ensure your head sinks into the pillow as opposed to remaining in an unnatural angle through the night.

Additionally, for those that overheat during the night, we offer pillows with cooling properties. Our range of cool pillows are there to help keep you cool during the night due to their innovative technology and advanced materials. They can absorb heat and help to regulate body temperature, which will help you achive a good night's sleep.

Frequently Asked Questions

When shopping around for pillows, there are a few key things to keep in mind:
• Pillow Loft: This is the compressed height of the pillow when your head is resting on it. You’ll typically find low, or medium loft options.
• Firmness of pillow material: Different materials will vary in firmness. How firm you prefer your pillow can play a role in your personal comfort level.
• The firmness of your mattress: This is a very important factor that shouldn’t be overlooked. The softer your mattress is, the lower your pillow should be.
• Your normal sleeping position: Your go-to sleeping position will determine the ideal pillow loft for you. Typically, you will need a higher loft pillow when you sleep more on your side compared to on your back.
• Your weight and shoulder width: The width of your shoulders and your weight can help you determine the pillow loft you should be looking for. The wider your shoulders, the higher your pillow should be. Likewise, the heavier you are, the more likely you are to sink into the mattress which will leave you needing a lower pillow.

Our research shows nearly everyone shifts around during the night, so Silentnight set out to design pillows that can accommodate all sleep positions. Whether you like to sleep on your side, back, or front, you’ll feel supported by our our pillows.

If you’re prone to side sleeping:
Firmer fill and material: Having a pillow with soft fill will make your head sink in and put pressure back on your shoulder — giving you a stiff neck in the morning. Firm material can be anything from foam to a heavy-duty down alternative.

Low or Mid loft: The most important thing for side sleepers to look for is a pillow loft that will align your head, neck, and spine, and take some pressure off the shoulder.

If you’re prone to back sleeping:
Mid loft: Medium-firm material paired with a low or medium loft is perfect for back sleepers. One important thing to keep in mind is sleeping high enough on the pillow to support your neck fully.

If you’re prone to front sleeping:
Soft & compressible fill: Feather or down pillows will give you a cushy feel while not being too firm. Sleeping on a foam or other firm pillow will prop your head higher than it should be, which can lead to aches.

Low loft: The higher loft you have, the more craned your head can become which also pushes the rest of your body out of a neutral alignment.

Cleaning our pillows is easy! The Silentnight Pillows are machine washable and can be tumble dried on low with dryer balls or clean tennis balls. The Foam Pillow has a machine washable outer pillow cover, and the foam can be spot cleaned. We recommend you wash your pillows every 3-6 months.

Ideally, you should replace your pillows every one to two years, but this time frame can vary based on several factors. Below are some reasons why you may need to replace your pillow:

Pillows can get pretty dirty: While we sleep, the oils and debris from our skin become embedded in our pillow (and not just the pillowcase—the actual pillow).

Your pillow has lost its shape: As our pillows age, they tend to lose their shape. This goes double if you fold, bend, or squeeze your pillows at night.

Your pillow just isn’t comfy anymore: Your pillow’s purpose is to provide comfort and support as you drift off to dreamland. No matter what anyone says about how long pillows last, if your pillow’s not fulfilling the reason for its existence, it’s time to retire it.
