About Napoon

At Napoon, our mission can be summed up in one sentence: to make deep sleep accessible to everyone. We create handcrafted weighted blankets from cotton. No glass beads. Just cotton, weight, and science to help you sleep better. But why do we do this? Let me tell you.

Why I created Napoon

My name is Dorian, founder of Napoon. For years, I suffered from poor sleep due to an intense pace in Paris.

1

A typical day in Paris

Wake up at 5:45 am. One-hour walk with Marley, my Belgian Malinois. Work from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm. Another one-hour walk with Marley. Exercise, personal projects, then bed at 11:30 pm.

2

On paper it looked good

A great vegan diet, regular exercise, discipline. But my body was stagnating. I felt exhausted.

3

The turning point

I came across a video that showed two things: muscle only rebuilds itself during deep sleep. And, from the age of 30, we lose 1% of muscle mass per year.

4

Sleep tracking

I downloaded Rise, a sleep tracking app. Result: chronic sleep debt. My body never really recovered.

5

I discovered weighted blankets...

Not just another wellness gadget. A genuine therapeutic tool, validated by science. The first night with a weighted blanket, I knew I was going to create Napoon.

OUR BEGINNINGS

Starting from scratch

In the beginning, it was truly artisanal. We searched for suppliers capable of braiding, created prototypes, and designed sizes...

The first sales and customer feedback... immense pride mixed with sleepless nights (ironic for a sleep company).

Each order was prepared with care. Each customer received a little note. I ran to the post office like a madman.

Today, Napoon is growing. We have delivered to hundreds of customers and our adoption rate is over 98%.

OUR EXPERTISE

Science first

We don't design covers "because they're pretty." We design them because they work. We collaborate with several experts, including:

  • Sleep doctors
  • Wellness therapists
  • Naturopaths

Their mission? To help us continuously improve Napoon on solid scientific foundations.

We're not selling you a dream. We're selling you sleep.

OUR INDUSTRY

The sleep industry

Over 60% of French people sleep poorly. Our mission is to help people rediscover the joy of sleep, thanks to weighted blankets.

To create them, we had to make a choice: manufacture in China. Why? Knitting is no longer practiced in France. Our key choices:

  • No overproduction → Only reasonable quantities
  • No glass beads → Only organic cotton
  • No greenwashing → We stand by our choices

The result: exceptional coverage with unique expertise.

OUR BELIEFS

Our promises

☁︎ Proven effectiveness : Our blankets follow the 10% of your body weight rule. A scientifically validated ratio. No guesswork involved.

☁︎ Transparency: We tell you where our cotton comes from, how we braid it, the ideal weight, the studies cited...

☁︎ 100% handcrafted : Each blanket is hand-braided for 5 hours. Yes, it takes time. Artisanal craftsmanship is part of our DNA.

AND NOW ?

Let's build together!

Our ambition? To educate on the importance of sleep, so that every bedroom houses Napoon products: soothing, scientifically proven and sustainable.

We want to go further, and above all, do it with you!

Greetings from Provence.

Dorian and the entire Napoon team

Do you have any questions?

How are we different?

The market covers the bed with glass beads that move and make noise at night. Napoon covers your body with braided organic cotton that stays in place.

Our secret? We found the therapeutic efficacy zone: 3.1 to 4.6 kg/m² . What matters is the weight exerted per cm² on your body, not just the total weight.

Finally, our open-mesh braided design creates optimal airflow. Unlike synthetic blankets that trap moisture, Napoon remains breathable even in summer.

Is this scientifically proven?

Yes. Weighted blankets reduce insomnia by 50% after one month of use (Journal of Sleep Medicine, 2015).

Deep pressure stimulation decreases cortisol (stress) by 31% and increases serotonin by 28% (American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2011).

This isn't marketing, it's science. See the studies

What weight of blanket should I choose?

Approximately 10% of your body weight (e.g., 60kg = 6kg Napoon). If you are between two weights, choose the lighter one.

How long before I feel the effects?

  • Week 1 : Beginning of adaptation, slight improvement
  • 2 weeks : Fewer nighttime awakenings, faster sleep onset
  • 4 weeks : Objective improvement in sleep quality, measurable reduction in stress

What if it doesn't suit me?

You have 30 nights to try it out after receiving it. If it doesn't suit you, return it free of charge with no shipping costs. Zero risk, zero stress.
