How Our Dust Free Frame Works
Protectors seal your mattress, pillows and duvet. Underneath them sits a divan box, an upholstered frame or wooden slats: a mattress-sized dust mite habitat that is never washed and never sealed. This frame replaces it with smooth, sealed steel that mites cannot live on and dust cannot cling to.
➤ Dust Mite Proof Clean-Coat Steel Finish™ — four-stage surface preparation, then sealed. No fibres, no moisture, no foothold for mites
➤ Zero fabric, zero foam, zero divan box — the three places mites breed under a bed, all removed
➤ 35 cm under-bed clearance — vacuum the reservoir under the bed instead of pushing dust around it
➤ Wipe-clean in 30 seconds — cloth around each bar, end to end. Nothing to wash, nothing to dry
➤ Welded steel, slatted base — no loose joints to creak, no flex, your mattress feels exactly as it should
➤ Tool-free assembly in 15 minutes — all fixings included, light enough for one person to move when cleaning
Dust mites need three things: fibres to burrow into, moisture in the material, and undisturbed dust to feed on. Every conventional bed base gives them all three.
Their allergens rise straight up through the mattress. That is why some people encase everything and still wake up blocked. Sealed steel gives mites none of the three, so the reservoir is removed rather than covered. It is step four of our priority stack: seal the bed, control humidity, then take away the fabric and carpet mites live in.
Most metal beds are sprayed over raw steel. The paint chips, the surface pits, and those rough patches hold dust and moisture the same way fabric does, only smaller.
Ours goes through four stages before the coat is applied — pickling, phosphating, degreasing and dust removal — so the coating bonds to clean steel and cures to a smooth, non-porous, sealed surface. The result:
Mattress, protectors and bedding are not included. Add the Protector Set to seal the mattress, pillows and duvet that sit on top.

Everything you need to know about dust mite protection.
Most solutions treat the symptoms, not the cause. Dust mites live inside your mattress, pillow and duvet, and sprays or antihistamines can't reach them there. Our encasements physically seal your bedding with a precision zip, blocking 99.97% of allergens from reaching you every night. It is a permanent fix, not a workaround.
Yes. Those symptoms are caused by allergens you breathe in while you sleep. By sealing your mattress, pillows and duvet, you cut off that exposure completely. Most customers notice a real difference within two to four weeks. Many tell us it is the first thing that has actually worked.
No chemicals at all. Our eucalyptus silk fabric is woven so tightly that the pores measure around 5 microns, which is small enough to stop dust mites and their allergen particles from getting through. It works purely through the fabric structure, so it never washes out. All materials are OEKO-TEX certified and safe for sensitive skin.
Not at all. Once you encase your mattress, the allergens inside are sealed away from you. Your existing mattress, pillow and duvet are all fine to use. No need to throw anything out or buy new bedding first.
Nothing like those. Our eucalyptus silk is genuinely soft, breathable and silent. Once your normal bedding is on top you will forget they are there. A lot of customers are surprised by how comfortable they are.
Absolutely. All materials are OEKO-TEX certified and safe for children, including those with eczema or asthma. We include a Cot Bed size in this set. Encasing your child's bed is one of the most recommended steps by allergists for reducing symptoms without relying on medication.
The barrier works from night one. Most people start noticing less congestion and irritation within one to two weeks, with a clearer improvement by the end of the first month. The more of your sleeping area you protect, the faster you tend to feel it.
Wash them once a month at 60 degrees and let them air dry. Do not tumble dry. The barrier does not degrade with washing because it is built into the fabric structure. Your bedding on top should be washed weekly at 60 degrees as part of your normal routine.
We offer Cot Bed, Single, Double, King and Super King. If your mattress falls between sizes, go up to the next one. It still gives you full protection and is easier to fit. Our standard encasement suits mattresses between 10 and 30cm deep. For mattresses between 30 and 45cm, you will need our deep fit version which is listed separately on the site.
