What Is a Cooling Pillow?
A cooling pillow is designed to draw heat away from your head and neck, helping you stay cool and dry while you sleep. Unlike regular pillows that can trap heat and sweat, cooling pillows use breathable materials and innovative designs to promote airflow and temperature regulation.
At Jason, our cooling pillows typically include:
- Gel-infused memory foam for temperature control
- Bamboo or moisture-wicking covers for airflow and freshness
- Ventilated designs that improve breathability
They’re perfect for hot Australian nights or year-round use by anyone who struggles with heat retention in bed.
Benefits of Cooling Pillows
Cooling pillows offer far more than just a refreshing feel. Here are the key benefits that make them a game-changer for many sleepers:
1. Temperature Regulation
Stay cool even on hot nights. Our cooling pillows help dissipate heat and maintain a stable, comfortable sleeping temperature.
2. Improved Sleep Quality
Overheating can lead to restlessness and disrupted sleep cycles. A cooling pillow helps you stay in deep sleep longer by keeping you comfortable throughout the night.
3. Moisture-Wicking
Sweaty sleepers benefit from moisture-wicking materials like bamboo, which absorb and evaporate sweat to keep you dry.
4. Odour Resistance
Antibacterial and breathable fabrics prevent the build-up of sweat-related odours, keeping your pillow fresh for longer.
5. Hypoallergenic
Most cooling pillows are made from hypoallergenic materials, helping to reduce exposure to allergens, dust mites, and bacteria.
Who Should Use a Cooling Pillow?
Cooling pillows are ideal for anyone who:
- Sleeps hot or experiences night sweats
- Lives in a warm or humid climate
- Shares a bed and needs independent temperature regulation
- Is going through hormonal changes (e.g. menopause)
- Wants better support and a fresher sleep experience
- Has sensitive skin or allergies
They're also a fantastic choice for children, teens, and older adults, anyone who prefers a cooler, more breathable sleep surface.
Cooling Pillow Types at Jason
Jason offers a variety of cooling pillow designs to suit different sleep styles and budgets. Each one is made to enhance airflow, manage temperature, and improve comfort.
1. Gel Memory Foam Cooling Pillow
Our gel-infused memory foam pillows feature advanced cooling gel particles that draw heat away from the head and neck. The contoured foam supports proper spinal alignment while helping regulate temperature.
2. Bamboo Cooling Pillow
Made with a bamboo viscose blend cover, these pillows are incredibly breathable and naturally hypoallergenic. Bamboo helps wick moisture away, reduce heat retention, and feels cool to the touch.
3. Ventilated Cooling Pillows
With open-cell foam or ventilation channels built into the design, these pillows promote continuous airflow, preventing trapped heat and increasing breathability.
4. Shredded Memory Foam Cooling Pillow
For those who prefer adjustability, our shredded memory foam pillows let you shape and shift the fill as needed, while the breathable structure encourages airflow and cooling comfort.
How Cooling Pillows Work
Cooling pillows use a combination of materials and construction techniques to regulate heat and promote better sleep:
- Cooling gel absorbs body heat and disperses it evenly
- Ventilation holes in memory foam encourage airflow
- Bamboo or TENCEL™ covers wick moisture and stay cooler to the touch
- Shredded foam fillings improve breathability compared to solid foam cores
Together, these elements create a cooler sleeping environment especially helpful for summer nights or those who overheat year-round.
