Why Eucalyptus Silk Is the Best Material for Dust‑Mite Allergy

Eucalyptus silk (TENCEL™) is made from eucalyptus tree wood pulp. It feels silky soft and is very breathable and moisture‑wicking – excellent for allergy sufferers. Our Premium bedding is made with 1000 thread organic Eucalyptus Silk.

How It Compares to Cotton, Bamboo, Linen, Silk & Polyester

Material Texture Breathability Moisture‑Wicking Durability (60 °C wash) Cost
Eucalyptus Soft, silky Highest Highest High High
Cotton Soft, fluffy High Moderate Highest Low
Bamboo Soft, smooth High Moderate Moderate High
Linen Crisp, rough High Moderate High Moderate
Silk Smooth, soft Moderate High High Very High
Polyester Smooth, textured Low Low High Lowest

Eucalyptus silk tops the list for both breathability and moisture control which reduces Dust Mites, this makes it the Best Material for Dust Mite Allergy Sufferers.

Why Is Eucalyptus Silk Best for Dust‑Mite Allergy?

  • Naturally hypoallergenic: Smooth eucalyptus fibre resists dust mites and bacteria – it doesn’t give mites a place to hide.
  • Moisture‑wicking excellence: Absorbs and moves sweat 70% more than cotton, keeping bedding drier and less attractive to dust mites.
  • Ultra‑breathable: Prevents humidity build‑up – mites hate dryness.
  • High durability: Can be washed at 60 °C to kill mites and remain in great shape.
  • Eco‑friendly and safe: Sustainable sourcing and chemical‑free production avoid skin irritation or allergens.

Why Silk Alone Isn’t Enough

Pure silk is soft and hypoallergenic but lacks the high breathability and moisture control of eucalyptus silk. It is also more expensive and fragile.

Dust‑Mite Allergy Tips

  • Wash bedding weekly at ≥ 60 °C to kill mites.
  • Use encasements, but fabric still counts: eucalyptus silk gives extra protection next to your skin.
  • Keep bedroom humidity under 50% – eucalyptus silk’s moisture control helps.
