Why Buy A Mattress Protector or Topper?
Mattress protectors extend the life of your mattress by acting as a protective, hygienic layer, keeping it free from stains, bacteria, dust mites, and general wear and tear.
Mattress toppers protect your mattress in the same way as a protector. They are substantially thicker than protectors. They also add a luxurious extra layer for improved comfort and heightened support while you sleep.
Mattress protectors and toppers do not require special care. They can be machine washed at home, with no need for dry cleaning. It is also recommended that you air your mattress topper regularly.
What To Look For When buying a mattress protector/topper?
- Anti-Allergy: Those who suffer from allergies or sensitive skin should look for protectors and toppers made from hypoallergenic materials such as cotton, microfibre & fleece.
- Waterproof: A waterproof mattress protector or topper will protect against spillages or accidents, keeping your mattress clean and dry
- Breathability:A good mattress protector and topper should be thermo-regulating. This means that it should be breathable. Cotton is the perfect fabric for this purpose, as it is naturally moisture-wicking.
- Memory Foam Support (Toppers): When buying a Mattress Topper, consider one made from memory foam. Memory Foam will adapt to your body shape, ideal for those looking to relieve pressure in their joints and avoid the development of aches & pains.
