Since 1797, when United Feather 's38; Down was founded, eight generations of owners within the same family have witnessed more than 200 years of economic fluctuations. Consistently during
that time, the company has cultivated relationships with the finest raw materials suppliers in the industry. No one knows how to source, procure and combine the best raw materials to
create a bedding masterpiece fit for any economy, than United Feather 's38; Down.
It'ss that feeling of luxury every consumer desires, and the true feeling of luxury is found in the finish of a chosen fabric and the right blend of filling materials, says Bob Hickman,
Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, United Feather 's38; Down. But it goes so far beyond fabric and fill. Our entire process of innovation that leads to proprietary, patented
bedding products, the long-standing relationships we have with our suppliers to source the finest quality raw materials adds up to a reputation for providing true value, true quality that
lasts over the long term.
The product focus for market week centers on collections United Feather 's38; Down has assembled that provide high value without sacrificing luxury and performance. Of special interest
are the value-oriented retails on United Feather 's38; Down'ss award winning personal comfort pillow collection, most recently featured in the May 2009 issue of Ladies's Home Journal. The
new designs are made from 300 thread count damask stripe cotton and Eco-Harmony's8482; an extra-fine denier down alternative fill made from recycled poly. Styles include:
The Personal Comfort collection includes a Side Sleeper's8482;, Back Sleeper's8482;, or Stomach Sleeper's8482; Bed Pillows designed specifically for proper neck alignment and comfort for
the different sleeping styles. Delivering versatility, functionality and choice, the Voyager Bed 's38; Body pillow is a dual chamber pillow that converts to a 56-inch body
