FAQs

How to choose the right size for your mattress protector?
Measure the length, width and especially the thickness of your mattress. Choose the exact dimension (e.g. 140×190, 160×200) and check the cup height: 25 to 30 cm are suitable for the majority of mattresses, 35 cm and more for thick mattresses or with Uppermattress.

An elasticated cap ensures wrinkle-free support. If you are unsure between two heights, choose the larger one to facilitate installation and preserve elasticity. The mattress protector slips under the fitted sheet and should not compress it.
What materials should you choose for a quality mattress protector?
Organic cotton fleece (or flannel) offers softness, absorption and breathability, ideal for natural everyday comfort. Cotton terry is also very absorbent and easy to maintain.

For protection against liquids, choose a thin and breathable polyurethane (PU) membrane, quieter and durable than PVC. Look for demanding labels (e.g. GOTS, OEKO-TEX®) and avoid unnecessary treatments if you have sensitive skin.
Is a waterproof mattress protector noisy or uncomfortable?
Modern models use a thin polyurethane membrane laminated to cotton jersey or flannel. Result: effective protection, textile feel and almost no noise when moving.

Avoid thick plastic films (PVC type) which can crack and become hot. Check the weight of the fabric, the quality of the assembly and the presence of peripheral elastics for a clean fit and discreet comfort.
Can we use a mattress pad for a baby or child's bed?
Yes, it is even recommended to protect the mattress from small accidents and maintain impeccable hygiene. Choose the right size (cradle, 60×120, 70×140) with suitable cap for a secure fit.

Choose breathable materials (organic cotton, PU membrane) and recognized certifications. Wash frequently, without fabric softener for waterproof models, to maintain absorbency and breathability.
Mattress protector or Uppermattress : what to choose?
The mattress protector has a hygiene and protection function (stains, humidity, mites). The Uppermattress modifies the feel of the bed (softer, more enveloping or firmer).

The two can be combined: if you use a Uppermattress on a daily basis, place the mattress protector on top to protect the whole thing. Always finish with a fitted sheet the size of the mattress + duo Uppermattress.
How to maintain and maintain the effectiveness of a mattress protector over time?
Wash every 2 to 4 weeks (more often in case of allergies). Follow the label: 40–60°C for cotton, gentle cycle for PU membranes. Avoid fabric softener which reduces absorption and can alter waterproofing.

Dry completely (in the open air or in a gentle tumble dryer). Treat stains quickly with a delicate pre-wash. The average lifespan is 2 to 3 years depending on use: replace if the surface fluffs, if the elastics loosen or if the waterproofness drops.
