All our pillows can be laundered in large capacity machines, but ensure you only wash one pillow at a time. Some of our pillows can be washed at 60C which is the temperature most house dust mites are killed. Pillows typically have a more limited lifespan when compared to duvets. This is because the weight of our heads will deteriorate the level of support over the years. Natural pillows will keep their shape and level of support much longer than synthetic, but will require you to plump up the pillows regularly.  


Getting the best from your pillows requires the use of a pillow protector and a pillowcase. Richard Haworth has a wide choice of quilted polypropylene or our revolutionary Prima plain weave fabric, prolong the life of your pillow with this added layer of protection from marks and stains.

  • Using our revolutionary plain weave, cotton-rich Prima fabric, the prima pillow protector with ties stays white wash after wash

Make sure you have considered your style of sleeping when purchasing your pillows if you sleep on your back or stomach you might prefer a soft or medium pillow that is not too thick and will mould to your head and neck to give you comfortable gentle support. Choose a firm or dense pillow if you sleep on your side, as this will offer the most support for your spine, head and neck in that position. If you have wide shoulders and sleep on your side you may prefer to use two pillows – a popular combination is a firmer bottom pillow and a softer top pillow.
