It's used a lot in Germany and considered safe by many there, but personally I wouldn't recommend it when there are safer options, like paper and tissue.

Very interesting that you say it is used a lot in Germany as the only use of Kapok that I've ever known was as the stuffing for German WW2 lifejackets.
