Description
Premium Microfibre Performance, Made in Germany
Traumina engineers the Novis Faser WK2 as a high-performance spring and autumn duvet for sleepers who want the lightness and loft of natural down without using any animal materials. Since 1921, Traumina has built duvets that stand apart from mass-market alternatives — and the Novis Faser is one of their clearest demonstrations of that standard.
What Is Novis Faser?
Novis Faser is Traumina’s proprietary high-performance microfibre. Each fibre is finer than a human hair, engineered to interlock and trap air in a way that closely mimics the cluster structure of natural goose down.
Unlike standard polyester filling, Novis Faser springs back to full loft quickly after compression and maintains consistent warmth distribution across the entire duvet surface — wash after wash, year after year. It also outperforms natural down in humid conditions, where natural down can clump and lose loft. The result is a duvet that feels genuinely light and lofty rather than dense and heavy.
Heat Class WK2
At heat class WK2 (medium warmth), this duvet balances warmth and lightness for spring and autumn nights. It also suits year-round use in well-heated bedrooms for those who sleep warm.
If you frequently overheat at night, a WK1 may suit you better. For cold winters or cold sleepers, a WK3 is the stronger choice. Explore our natural bamboo WK2 alternative → Traumina Exclusive Bambus WK2. Our sleep experts are happy to advise at 596 14 9977.
Down-Allergy Friendly & Easy Care
Novis Faser contains no animal proteins whatsoever — no down, no feathers, no wool. This makes it intrinsically suitable for people with down or feather allergies. Machine wash at the temperature shown on the care label using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low with a couple of clean tennis balls to restore loft during drying. Avoid long-term compressed storage, which reduces loft over time.

Traumina Novis Faser WK2 — FAQ
Q: What exactly is Novis Faser and how does it compare to natural down or bamboo fillings?
Novis Faser is Traumina’s proprietary high-performance microfibre — engineered to replicate the loft, lightness, and warmth distribution of natural down without using any animal materials.
Each fibre is finer than a human hair. This allows the fibres to interlock and trap air in a way that closely mimics the cluster structure of goose down — producing a duvet that feels light and lofty rather than dense and heavy.
Compared to natural down, Novis Faser is fully washable at home, dries more quickly, and maintains consistent performance even in humid conditions where natural down can clump. Compared to bamboo, Novis Faser is purely synthetic and lacks bamboo’s natural moisture-wicking and antimicrobial properties — but compensates with exceptional resilience, springing back to full loft quickly after compression, and very consistent warmth distribution across the whole duvet surface.
Q: Is Novis Faser suitable for people with down allergies?
Yes — the Traumina Novis Faser WK2 is intrinsically suitable for anyone with a down or feather allergy.
Novis Faser contains no animal proteins whatsoever — no down, no feathers, no wool. For people who have been unable to enjoy the lightness and loft of a traditional duvet due to allergies, a high-quality microfibre like Novis Faser is the closest practical alternative available.
It also resists dust mite colonisation compared to some natural materials — though regular washing remains the most effective measure for managing dust mite presence in any duvet.
Q: How long will a Novis Faser duvet last, and how do I maintain its loft over time?
A well-maintained Traumina Novis Faser duvet performs consistently for seven to ten years — significantly longer than basic synthetic duvets.
The key to maintaining loft is regular washing. Unlike natural down, which can be damaged by frequent washing, Novis Faser actually benefits from regular laundering — it redistributes the fibres and restores loft. Wash at the temperature shown on the care label using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with a couple of clean tennis balls added to break up any clumped fibres and help restore volume during drying.
Avoid storing the duvet compressed for long periods — this permanently reduces loft over time. Learn more about Traumina → https://www.traumina.de
Q: Why does the Traumina Novis Faser WK2 cost more than basic synthetic duvets?
The price difference reflects three specific and verifiable distinctions — not branding.
First, the fibre quality: Novis Faser uses fibres finer than a human hair, engineered for loft, resilience, and warmth distribution. Producing fibres of this specification consistently is technically more demanding and more expensive than producing standard polyester filling.
Second, the construction: Traumina has been a specialist bedding manufactory since 1921. Their baffle construction, fill weight precision, and outer fabric quality are materially better than mass-market alternatives.
Third, longevity: a Traumina Novis Faser duvet that performs consistently for seven to ten years represents better long-term value than a cheaper duvet replaced every two to three years. When you calculate cost per year of use rather than comparing sticker prices, the Traumina frequently offers comparable or better value — while delivering a meaningfully superior sleeping experience throughout.
