The Snugnights Allergon Pillow Protector

A Waterproof & Dust Mite Proof Zipped Pillow Cover

Every pillow should have a removable cover fitted underneath your usual pillowcase and over the pillow itself. There a number of reasons for this.

Hygiene

Without some form of waterproof protector on your pillow it will soon become marked and stained by perspiration and saliva. It is quite difficult to wash most pillows and even more difficult to dry them so a removable waterproof cover is the easiest and most sensible solution to the problem.

Dust Mites

Dust Mites are present in all of homes, regardless of cleanliness and the place you are virtually guaranteed to find them is in your mattress and pillow. It is said that 20% of the weight of a 2 year old pillow is made up of dust mites and their waste products. Dust mites live off skin particles and congregate where a supply of these particles and moisture can be found. What better place than your pillow. It's not a pleasant thought but at least you can do something about it. Dust mites can also bring on allergies often seen as coughing and wheezing in bed or runny eyes and nose. The Allergon pillow protector solves the problem by encasing the mattress in a waterproof membrane that stops the dust mites and their waste products from reaching you and stops moisture and skin particles from getting to them. fitting this cover effectively starves them.

What about comfort

The Allergon Pillow Protector has a soft cotton terry outer surface, on the inside of the pillow cover is the waterproof membrane, this is made from polyurethane and unlike plastic or pvc is soft to the touch, doesn't make any noise and will not make you feel hot, sweaty or uncomfortable.

Care

To clean the pillow protector just unzip it and wash in your machine at any temperature from 56c to 95c. The higher the better as high temperatures kill dust mites. Then either line dry or tumble dry and replace back on your pillows, it could not be easier.
