Introduction to Pristine® Dust Mite Mattress and Pillow Covers
The term "pristine" implies clean, pure, and uncontaminated. By encasing your pillows, mattress, boxspring and comforter in our Pristine® dust mite covers you will help keep your bed clean and uncontaminated from dust mites and their associated allergens. Designed to offer rest and relief to those who suffer from severe allergies, night sweats and skin conditions, our Pristine® dust mite covers feature patented fabric technology. They are soft and breathable made from a 260 thread count, very tightly woven 100% polyester. This fabric has a very small pore size of 2.6 microns that creates a barrier to dust mites and allergy-causing particles without using a membrane. These dust mite encasings also have an antimicrobial treatment to help control the growth of odor causing bacteria and fungi. Our Pristine® dust mite covers offer performance and comfort at a reasonable price.
Features of Pristine® Dust Mite Mattress and Pillow Covers
100% polyester with tightly woven construction
Anti-microbial protection: AEGIS Microbe Shield™ is applied during manufacturing. This treatment permanently bonds to the fiber surface to help control the growth of odor causing bacteria and fungi on the fabric. The antimicrobial treatment does not come off in laundering or during use.
Pristine fabric has been awarded the only two patents in the allergen barrier cover category (U.S. Patent Nos. 6,277,770 & 7,290,381)
Tested by independent labs to ensure allergen barrier performance
Extra small average pore size of 2.6 microns
The small pore size of the Pristine fabric is possible due to a special finishing process known as calendaring - the polyester fabric is subjected to extreme heat and pressure which shrinks the space between the threads of the fabric
Combines total allergen protection with a extraordinarily high level of comfort
Very breathable, as it is permeable to air and water vapor
Easy to launder and maintain – machine washable
Secure anti-rust zipper enclosures
Durable construction and finished seams
Plain weave
260 thread count, 3.3 oz per square yard
Available for comforters, duvets, mattresses, box springs, and pillows
How it Works — Pristine® Dust Mite Mattress and Pillow Covers
If
you wake up in the morning with itchy, watery eyes, nasal stuffiness,
runny nose, and in some cases asthma you may be allergic to dust
mites and their allergens. These allergic reactions to mite allergens
can be a year round problem.
Dust
mites live in mattresses, comforters, carpeting and upholstery.
These encasings
provide a barrier for up to 99.95% of mites and their allergens.
They also protect you from mold spores that may exist in your camp
or vacation home mattress.
Pristine® Dust Mite Encasings for Mattresses, Boxsprings, Pillows and Comforters
Pristine
encasings are cool, comfortable and are air and moisture permeable. There
is no noisy, hot, sticky plastic layer attached to the back of this fabric.
Since we spend almost one third of our lives in our bedroom it makes sense to make it a healthy enjoyable place to be. One of the easiest, most economical solutions is to encase your mattress and pillow with zippered tightly woven encasings.
For optimal protection,
an effective antimicrobial treatment, AEGIS Microbe Shield™, is added
to the Pristine Cotton Plus. This EPA approved protective finish inhibits
the growth of microorganisms on the fabric as well as controls mold and
mildew odors, soiling, staining, and deterioration. Bonded directly to
the fabric, this antimicrobial shield is permanent and cannot be destroyed
by repeated washings.
