How to choose an anti-dust mite mattress?

Choosing a mattress that works against dust mites is an investment in health and sleep comfort. The best material for combating dust mites is HR foam, which provides excellent air circulation and maintains mattress hygiene. Although latex is also resistant to dust mites, it has numerous drawbacks, such as poor breathability and fragility.

It is worth opting for the Osaka Air mattress, which we currently offer in two versions. It standardly includes a Premium version mattress cover, which is stretchable in every direction and made from hypoallergenic materials. There is also a version with a Purotex version mattress cover, which actively fights dust mites and other allergens. This technology works on the surface of the mattress, neutralizing allergens and improving sleep hygiene. Additionally, the cover can be washed at high temperatures, ensuring long-lasting protection and cleanliness.
