TENCEL™: The Ultimate Fabric for Sensitive Skin

Experiencing itchiness at night can lead to sleepless, uncomfortable evenings. For those with sensitive skin, the choice of bedding fabric is crucial in ensuring a good night's sleep without irritation.

Why Choose TENCEL™?
One fabric that stands out for its skin-friendly properties is TENCEL™. Derived from sustainably sourced wood fibers, TENCEL™ boasts a smooth surface that minimizes skin irritation. It's not only hypoallergenic but also surpasses the softness of silk and the coolness of linen, while outperforming cotton in moisture absorption. This unique combination of features makes TENCEL™ an excellent choice for thermal regulation, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter.

Benefits of TENCEL™ for Sensitive Skin
If you or someone in your family has sensitive skin, incorporating TENCEL™ into your bedding is a wise decision. For optimal protection and comfort, consider using a Protect-A-Bed® TENCEL™ mattress or pillow protector. These products are specifically designed to cater to sensitive skin and have been endorsed by the Eczema Association as tried and tested solutions.

Features of Protect-A-Bed® TENCEL™ Protectors
The Protect-A-Bed® TENCEL™ mattress protectors provide more than just comfort. They are equipped with a breathable, waterproof Miracle Layer® that is soft and quiet—unlike the traditional crinkly and noisy waterproof layers. This advanced layer is virtually imperceptible and ensures that the protector remains discreet while offering robust protection against spills, stains, and allergens such as dust mites, mold, and bacteria.

Certified and Endorsed
All Protect-A-Bed® TENCEL™ products are approved by the National Asthma Council’s Sensitive Choice Program, providing reassurance of their suitability for asthma and allergy sufferers.

Ease of Use
Just like a fitted sheet, the smooth surface of the Protect-A-Bed® TENCEL™ mattress protector can be slept on directly, eliminating the need for an additional sheet. This not only simplifies bedding but also enhances the comfort and effectiveness of the protector.

By choosing TENCEL™ for your bedding, you're opting for a night free from irritation and overheating, ideal for anyone with sensitive skin or allergies. This fabric not only ensures comfort but also contributes to your overall health and well-being by fostering an allergen-free, hygienic sleep environment.

The Essential Benefits of a Waterproof Mattress Protector

We spend about one-third of our lives sleeping, making it crucial to maintain a clean and healthy sleep environment. This not only promotes better rest but also enhances overall well-being. Many people notice their mattresses and pillows yellowing over time and might accept it as an inevitable part of bedding life. However, those stains are typically caused by perspiration (with the average person losing about a litre of water each night), skin flakes, and everyday spills. These not only feed dust mites but also contribute to the growth of mould and bacteria.
