Description
Protects all sides of the mattress. Mattress encasements protect against allergens, dust mites, bed bugs, bacteria and fluids. The best way to protect your mattress and bedding from bed bug infestation is to put on the encasement before any threat of bed bugs occurs in your home. If you have an existing bed bug problem, do not remove the encasement for at least 18 months. Bed bugs are able to lie dormant for up to 18 months, and they will again be a problem and feed off of you if the encasement is removed too early.
Mattress encasements protect your mattress and reduce potential hiding places but they are not the sole treatment for bed bugs as they can be all over your room including walls, furniture, cracks and crevices. Encasements are used as part of an integrated pest management approach, which should also include powders, sprays, steaming, interceptors and multiple treatments. Signs of infestation may include: itchy skin welts on your body; tiny dark spots on your sheets, mattress or box spring which are their fecal droppings; dried remains of shed bed bug skins.
Our mattress encasements are especially recommended for:
- homes with existing or potential bed bug infestation,
- families with small children,
- pet owners, people with certain medical conditions (incontinence, asthma, allergies),
- women nursing in bed,
- women pregnant in the last trimester,
- those who purchased a new mattress and don’t want to void its warranty.
Waterproof. These mattress covers are made of a smooth, stretchable and soft polyester fabric with 0.02mm breathable waterproof membrane underneath. The waterproof membrane allows circulation of air but stops moisture from reaching the mattress. The encasements protect your mattress from perspiration, urine, blood, oil from skin & makeup, accidental spills, nursing leaks and helps protect warranty of your mattress. The cost of this protector is inconsequential compared to the cost of replacement of your mattress. Our mattress encasements are thin and they do not change the feel of your mattress or the comfort of your bed. They do not feel slippery if used with a fitted sheet. Color. White.
Hypoallergenic. Mattress encasements block dust mites, allergens (eg pollen), bacteria, mildew, mold, dirt, pet dander and dead skin cells from getting into the mattress. Dust mites feed on dead skin cells and animal dander. They usually stay in the mattress and their feces are the main cause of allergies and asthma. Mattress protectors (5 sided protection) or mattress encasements (6 sided protection) help control dust mites.
No toxic chemicals. Our mattress encasements are free from Vinyl, PVC, Phthalates, fire retardants and other toxic chemicals.
Breathable. Encasements allow air to pass through keeping you nice & cool. You won’t wake up drenched in sweat. Recommended to use with a breathable fitted sheet (made of cotton, linen or silk but not of microfiber/polyester)
Heavy duty. All our mattress and box spring encasements are made of a durable stain resistant knitted polyester fabric. The seams are double stitched and there is a strong zipper.
Easy to remove & clean. The zipper is on three sides for easy installation and removal. Machine washable and dryable. Wrinkle resistant.
Noiseless. No crackling sound when moving. If the encasement feels loud, please wash it.
Care. It is best to wash before using. Wash with the zipper open. Wash with cold or hot water using normal household detergents that do not contain bleach. Do not dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat together with bed sheets, towels or clothing. Before putting the mattress encasement always ensure the mattress is fully dry. The encasement is 100% waterproof so naturally it will stop any wetness from escaping the encasement and can cause mold to grow inside your mattress.
Installation:
- 1. Remove the mattress from the bed and hold it upright.
- 2. Unzip the mattress encasement on all three sides and wrap the short, unzippered side over the top of the standing mattress.
- 3. Slowly pull the encasement down so that both sides of the mattress are covered and begin closing the zipper.
- 4. Place the mattress on the bed to finish closing the zipper.
Warranty. We offer 10 year guarantee against manufacturing and fabric defects.
