Why this Thermoregulating Graphene Blanket is a Must-Have for Every Home

Rising electricity costs, power outages, extreme weather, these aren’t a distant figment of fiction anymore. Regardless of where you live, all of these are a reality, and sure, we can adopt new forms of energy and build more reliable power systems for ensuring our sustenance… or, we could just be very smart with how we leverage existing technologies to live our lives comfortably in an energy-efficient way. Meet HILU, a thermoregulating blanket that replaces the need for a thermostat or an air-conditioner. Made from graphene, one of the most highly conductive materials known to man, the HILU blanket thermoregulates you while you sleep. In short, if you’re feeling hot, the blanket cools you down. If you’re feeling cold, the blanket warms you up. The HILU blanket doesn’t run on electricity and doesn’t need plugging in. It can be used both indoors and outdoors… and the best part, it can thermoregulate in both directions at the same time, keeping you cool while keeping your partner warm.

HILU graphene-made blanket adjusts to your body temperature so you can sleep all night comfortably, regardless the season.

The way the HILU blanket works is simple science. Given graphene’s highly conductive properties, it does a remarkable job of regulating your body’s temperature, helping you feel warm when it’s cold, and cool when it’s hot. The blanket detects your body’s own temperature, and either lets heat out or traps heat inside to help you reach an optimal temperature so that you feel comfortable all year round.

HILU’s fabric is crafted from pure graphene fiber, which is produced through a unique wet spinning process that dissolves graphite into liquid graphene crystals. These crystals are then dried to form the fibers, which are woven together using Adaptex technology to create a blanket that can sense and regulate body temperature. The blanket is also soft, comfortable, hypoallergenic, and OEKO-TEX100 certified. Additionally, the use of pure graphene fiber makes the HILU blanket highly durable and virtually tear-proof.

Made of genuine graphene fibers, HILU blankets are the strongest and most durable in the market.

The properties of graphene don’t just stop there. Aside from HILU’s borderline magical thermoregulating properties and high durability, the blanket is also hypoallergenic, breathable, and anti-bacterial. This makes it suitable for all skin types, keeping you comfortable through the year. The breathability ensures you don’t work up a sweat while you sleep, and the anti-bacterial nature of the fibers ensure that even if you do, your blanket remains fresh for weeks.

Unlike your cotton or wool blanket that can often get musty with time, the HILU has no such shortcomings, although it’s recommended that you machine wash it on the gentle cycle with cold water and tumble dry on low to make it last for years to come… a promise extended by even HILU’s makers with their staggering 10-year warranty.

The HILU blanket is available in both Queen and King sizes, with its signature satin-grey fabric (and comes with a free luxurious eye mask). You can choose a custom color for the tailoring, with options between grey, blue, or green stitching to give your blanket the perfect accent color. The blanket debuted earlier this year on crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo, gathering over $1 million in sales. The HILU team began delivering the blanket at the beginning of May, and you can grab yours now at a special discounted price (and claim the free eye mask) just for Yanko Design readers using the link below!

Finally, a weighted blanket that’s cosy, breathable, stylish, and machine-washable

There’s something interesting about how weighted blankets play on human psychology. As a child, you’re used to the comfort of having your parents’ arm around you as you sleep. This gentle weight and warmth promote faster, sounder, better sleep, giving you a sense of comfort and protection. This psychological trait lingers on even through adulthood – of feeling safe and protected by warmth and weight, which is why it’s easier to sleep with weighted blankets, and why your quality of sleep is much better with one too!

Traditionally, weighted blankets are a lot like duvets. They’re thick, warm, and do their job okay, except when they don’t. Most weighted blankets are designed to trap body heat, which makes them less breathable and results in you feeling stuffy/sweaty after a few hours. These blankets also come filled with glass beads to give them their weight, and just like a pillow stuffed with cotton, these beads can often relocate and shift around, clustering at one corner and creating uneven weight distribution. They’re also really difficult to wash, considering what’s inside them, and can’t just simply be chucked into a machine on a whim… not to mention the very nightmare of having these beads leak out by accident if your blanket ever springs a leak.

Think of Nuzzie as an oversized sweater, rather than a traditional weighted blanket. Designed to be warm, weighted, yet breathable, Nuzzie uses a loosely knitted technique to ensure you get the effects of a weighted blanket, without the problems of one. With its thick, crocheted design, Nuzzie comes with enough open-spaces to ensure breathability, so you never work up a sweat at night, and the thick tubular fabric offers a more balanced alternative to having a blanket filled with beads that shift around. Moreover, that textured pattern on Nuzzie gives it a stylish edge over traditional blankets. Designed to work as a throw, the Nuzzie can be used in bed, on the couch, or anywhere in the house as a decorative element… and on the off chance that it gets dirty, Nuzzie can easily be washed and dried in the machine, thanks to its proprietary patent-pending DuraFill fabric.

The Nuzzie works as a comforter you can use either in bed or around the house. Its weight gives you a sense of security, helping boost focus, reduce stress, and even calming you down during an anxiety attack. Its textured design even helps provide stimulation around your body’s pressure points, boosting Serotonin to keep you happy while reducing Cortisol, the stress hormone. Moreover, it promotes the body’s natural ability to produce Melatonin too, ensuring you get a long, relaxed, and fitful sleep after a tiring day of work… even if that day ends at 3 am because work-from-home knows no boundaries… *sigh*

Nuzzie Knit: The Most Breathable Weighted Blanket

The Nuzzie Knit is a hand-knitted weighted blanket that targets pressure points all around your body making you calm, fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

Therapeutic Grade – Improves sleep quality and calms stress and anxiety.

Supremely Breathable – Stay warm in winter and cool in summer.

Enhanced Durability – Beadless design won’t leak, fray or pill.

Easy Clean Up – Machine washable and dryable.

What’s Wrong with Traditional Weighted Blankets?

Not familiar with weighted blankets? Traditional weighted blankets are:

– Filled with glass beads which can shift around and even leak (no one likes cleaning thousands of glass beads out of their bed)
– Not very breathable, trapping in excess body heat (sweaty nights, gross)
– Not machine washable or machine dryable
– Not very stylish

Benefits & Science Behind Nuzzie Knit

To the left: Nuzzie Knit and to the Right: the Traditional Weighted Blankets.

No More Pesky Glass Beads – Nuzzie Knit ditches the glass beads for our patent pending high density fabric filling, DuraFill™. By using fabric to add weight to the blanket instead of beads, Nuzzie Knit is more comfortable and durable.

Say Goodbye to Sleepless, Sweaty Nights – The open knit design allows air to circulate, for better temperature regulation—you’ll stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

Fall Asleep Faster, Stay Asleep Longer – Like other weighted blankets, Nuzzie Knit applies gentle weight to pressure points around your body making you feel instantly calm, grounded and stress-free…just like a swaddled baby. (It’s the same science!)

Weighted blankets have been scientifically shown to improve your sleep quality. The gentle weight targets pressure points around your body, in a process called DPS or “Deep Pressure Stimulation”. DPS activates the central nervous system, modulating its hormone production in beneficial ways. Specifically, it boosts serotonin (happy hormone) and melatonin (sleepiness), while reducing cortisol (stress).

The Nuzzie Knit can be of value to anyone in the following groups:

– Anyone looking to improve their sleep quality
– People who have trouble falling asleep
– Remote workers who want to focus and destress during their work day
– Adults and children with ADHD, anxiety, autism, restless leg syndrome, insomnia, and PTSD

Product Details

The Nuzzie Knit is 80″ long and 60″ wide (the surface area of a queen bed) and weighs 15lbs (perfect weight for anyone weighing 120 pounds or more). The fabric material is made of our proprietary patent pending DuraFill™ which is a high density fiber that is long-lasting and ultra durable.

Achieve a deeper sleep and reduce your anxiety with Hush’s new cool-to-the-touch, sweat-wicking weighted blanket.

Why Hush Iced

Hush Iced relaxes the nervous system by simulating deep touch pressure therapy — which increases serotonin and melatonin levels while decreasing cortisol levels — improving your mood and promoting restful sleep at the same time.

Ultra-Cooling Speciality Cover

Did you know that when you’re getting ready to take a snooze, your body temperature decreases to initiate sleep? Science shows that room temperature should be between 68-72 degrees for the optimum sleep benefits.

Hush Iced uses the same advanced weight distribution technology as the classic Hush Blanket, but with a lighter, cool-to-the-touch cover. Hush Iced’s proprietary bamboo and cotton blend helps wick away sweat during hot summer months, while still providing weighted relief.
