Hypoallergenic Bedding

Hypoallergenic bedding that actually keeps dust mites out

Wake up without itchy skin, puffy eyes or a blocked nose.

iDustMite hypoallergenic bedding set: mattress, pillow and duvet covers that block dust mites

Most bedding sold as "hypoallergenic" only means the filling is synthetic. That does nothing to stop dust mites. Over time they move into your duvet, pillows and mattress, feed on the skin you shed every night, and leave behind the allergens that set off itching, sneezing and streaming eyes. Our bedding is woven so tightly that dust mites can't get through it at all.

Two ways to make your bed hypoallergenic

Dust mites live in three places in your bed: the mattress, the pillows and the duvet. You can either seal what you already own, or replace it with bedding that is dust mite proof and washable at 60°C.

Keep your bedding, seal it: the Protector Set

Full-zip covers for your mattress, pillows and duvet. They go on underneath your normal sheets and covers, so nothing about your bed changes except the dust mites. Put them on once and leave them.

  • Pillow encasements and duvet encasement, full zip
  • 5 micron barrier, blocks 100% of dust mites

Option 2, Replacing your bedding

New hypoallergenic duvet and pillows

If your duvet and pillows are old or can't be washed at 60°C, replace them. Ours are tightly woven, filled without chemicals and built to go in the washing machine at 60°C, the temperature that kills dust mites.

Don't forget the mattress. It holds more dust mites than anything else on the bed and it can't go in the washing machine. Pair new bedding with a mattress encasement.

Protector or bedding: which do I need?

This is the question we're asked most. Protectors (5 micron) are sealed covers that go underneath your normal bedding and stop dust mites reaching the mattress, pillow or duvet inside. Hypoallergenic bedding (40 micron) is the duvet and pillows themselves: tightly woven, and washable at 60°C so you can kill any mites that settle on the surface. For the best result, customers use both: protectors on everything, with our duvet and pillows on top.

What customers say

"After a week I can say my skin has massively improved, really happy."

Adam N.

"Previously I was waking up with swollen eyes every day but this has now stopped."

Jess

"I was expecting it to feel a little bit plasticky, but it feels like silk. It's amazing."

Jonathan G.

Where to start

  1. Encase the mattress on all six sides. This is the single most important step.
  2. Deal with pillows and duvet. Either encase them, or replace them with 60°C washable hypoallergenic bedding and wash weekly.
  3. Keep the bedroom below 50% humidity. Dust mites need moisture to survive. A dehumidifier does this for you.

Which size do I need?

Measure your mattress depth as well as width and length. Deep versions go up to 45cm.

Frequently asked questions

What does hypoallergenic bedding mean?

Strictly, it means bedding that is less likely to cause an allergic reaction. For most people with allergies the trigger is dust mites, so the bedding that helps is bedding dust mites can't get into. That comes down to how tightly the fabric is woven, not what the filling is made of.

Is it good for eczema and sensitive skin?

Itchy skin is the number one reason our customers buy. Dust mite allergen is a common trigger for itching and eczema flare-ups at night, and our barrier keeps it away from your skin. The eucalyptus silk is soft and cool, with no chemical treatments.

Can I keep my own duvet and pillows?

Yes. That's what the Protector Set is for. Zip your existing duvet, pillows and mattress inside and use your normal sheets and covers on top.

How do I wash it?

Wash hypoallergenic duvets, pillows and bedding at 60°C weekly. Protectors only need a vacuum or wash about once a month. Don't tumble dry protectors.

Do I need to clean my mattress first?

No. Just fit the encasement and zip it fully closed. Anything inside is sealed in.

Is it noisy or plasticky?

No. It's eucalyptus silk: soft, breathable and quiet. No crinkle, no crunch.

What sizes do you do?

Cot, single, double, king and super king, plus deep mattress versions up to 45cm. See the size guide above and the full guide on each product page.
