Furniture / Household Appliances
English term or phrase: Down and blowable
CONTEXT:
"The Licensee is a supplier of down and blowable synthetic filling, and a manufacturer of home furnishings of various kinds."

Ho trovato una precedente entry su Proz per un prodotto simile, quindi "blowable synthetic filling" => "riempimento in materiale sintetico soffiabile". Il problema me lo dà quel "down" infilato lì: cosa mi rappresenta?

Grazie a tutti per l'aiuto!

Notes to answerer
Asker: In un altro punto del testo avevo usato "piumino" per tradurre "comforter"... sono sinonimi, o è proprio tutt'altra cosa?


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Pompeo Lattanzi: "Down" è esattamente "piumino" mentre "feather" è "piuma" (molto meno efficace e quindi molto meno pregiata...)
