What is Shredded Memory Foam?
Memory Foams were first used by NASA inside aircrafts to make 
them comfortable. However, the secret was soon discovered and 
use of memory foam became not only commercial but widely 
acceptable and liked. The foam used within the pillows aren’t 
recycled and are always made fresh. 
The foam inside the shredded memory foam pillows are in 
chunks, also known as shredded. This keeps the pillow super 
malleable as well as extremely flexible. 
Shredded memory foam is known to be highly durable, i.e., 
they can be used for a very long time without any wear and 
tear. The bamboo pillowcases are also organic. What’s more, 
these pillows are all Certi-Pur US Certified which means they 
are certified to be non-toxic, chemical-free, and without any 
fatal elements. 
These fillings are not only the healthiest kind, but they are also 
used for healing several sleep and chronic pain related issues 
such as but not limited to cervical, spondylosis, and sore 
muscles.
What are some of the other types of fillings? 
Even though shredded memory foam used in Bamboo pillowcases are the best 
kind of fillings that you could get, it is always good to be aware of some of the 
other materials that pillows can be made of. 
• Cotton filling – 100% cotton is great, but it can clump together after a while
• Buckwheat kernels – Durable but would make sound when you shift or turn
• Ceiba Pentandra (Kapok) – Natural but flammable
• Polyester Fiberfill – Affordable but retains heat and loses shape over time
• Feathers – Geese and duck feathers are very comfortable but very 
expensive. Also, they can cause allergies and aren’t recommended for 
heavy sleepers
