25 Bedding Design Innovations

These bedding design innovations include snore-preventing pillows to antimicrobial bed linen sets.

With consumers continuing to social distance in the comfort of their own home for the long term -- a result of the ongoing, global COVID-19 pandemic -- comfort and self care are more of a priority than ever. In addition to refocusing on aesthetically pleasing bedding, functional and high-tech elements are also a huge factor for those investing in new home accessories.

Some notable bedding design innovations include The Fine Life Weighted Blanket with Sleeves, "a health-focused bedding solution" providing a sense of comfort for consumers experiencing stress and anxiety. The blanket resembles a duvet-style parka and boasts a microbead filling weighing seven pounds. The filling is distributed evenly to apply a calming pressure effect and promotes a calming feeling.

Other standouts include Energy Textiles' Radiance™ Far-Infrared Textile. The innovative fabric "contains special infrared-emitting ceramic particles that enable the garment to recycle your body's energy," ultimately resulting in increased blood flow -- something that bedding manufacturers can take advantage of.
