For people with dust mite allergies, quality sleep can be difficult to achieve (Berson et al. 2020).  Dust mites thrive in bedding, feeding on dead skin cells and producing allergens that trigger sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, and respiratory discomfort (asthma). A set of 100% cotton anti-allergy bedding encasements—including covers for pillows, quilts, and mattresses—provides an effective solution by creating a barrier between the sleeper and allergens, leading to a sounder night’s sleep.

Using a full set of anti-allergy bedding encasements — including a mattress cover, quilt (duvet) cover, and pillow cover — is important for effectively managing allergies, especially if you’re allergic to dust mites, pet dander, or mould. Here’s why a complete set is recommended:

Protection from Allergens

Dust mites, the most common trigger for indoor allergies, thrive in mattresses, pillows, and quilts. A full encasement system encloses all the areas where mites live and reproduce, reducing your exposure to allergens while you sleep.

Improved Sleep Quality

By reducing allergen exposure, you will experience fewer symptoms like sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, and asthma flare-ups, leading to better sleep.

More Effective than Single Covers Alone

Using only a pillow cover, for example, leaves the mattress and quilt as unprotected sources of allergens. Allergens can still circulate in the air or transfer between unprotected items — partial coverage gives partial protection.

Allergy Australia’s encasements are made from tightly woven cotton that is then steam treated to shrink the pores to a size too tight for the passage of allergens, and are zippered for full enclosure.
