The PlushDeluxe Bamboo Protector is designed to serve as a high-performance barrier for your mattress. It utilizes a 0.02mm Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) membrane, which provides waterproof protection while maintaining a degree of elasticity. Unlike older PVC-style covers, this TPU film is heat-bonded to the fabric, which significantly reduces the "crinkle" noise when moving in bed.
The surface is a blend of 70% bamboo-derived rayon and 30% polyester. This specific ratio is engineered to leverage the moisture-wicking properties of bamboo while relying on polyester for overall tensile strength. Specifications indicate the deep-pocket skirt can accommodate mattresses up to 18 inches, providing a secure fit that helps prevent the protector from shifting during the night.
Important maintenance tips:
- Wash in cool or warm water; temperatures above 60°C may damage the waterproof layer.
- Air-drying is recommended to prevent the TPU membrane from shrinking.
- The dense knit acts as a physical barrier against dust mites and household allergens.
While the protector is effectively waterproof, the top textile layer is designed to be absorbent. This means that in the event of a significant spill, the bedding should be stripped and laundered immediately to prevent moisture from sitting on the surface. This product is a practical safety feature for homes with children or pets, helping to monitor and maintain the condition of the mattress underneath.
If you require a layer that adds significant cushioning in addition to protection, the Sakurahome extra thick mattress pad provides a much higher loft.
