Custom Mattress Toppers From Victoria Linen

Custom Mattress Toppers

At Victoria Linen Company, our goal is to bring you the highest quality premium bed linen in the sizes you need, for all of the bedrooms in your house. Our latest addition to the custom Bedding line is comfortable, cosy Custom Mattress Toppers.

You might ask, what exactly is a mattress topper? Is it the same as a protector? The answer is no. A mattress protector protects (funnily enough) your mattress and is much thinner than a topper. A mattress topper, on the other hand, is designed to enhance the comfort of your mattress and provide you with a better nights sleep. High quality custom mattress toppers can add support or softness depending on your mattress type and needs.

The original mattress toppers were foam “egg crates” and sometimes thin feather toppers. Now mattress toppers come in lots of different forms designed to relieve pressure, equalize body temperature, or lessen tossing and turning – all to provide a deeper, more restful sleep.

The latest range of Custom Mattress Toppers at Victoria Linen Company include Hollow Fibre, Duck Feather & Down and The luxurious Duck Feather and Down Combination with an extra 2cm layer of comfort on the top.

The cluster fibres mold to the shape of your body adding support and comfort wherever you need it. The Hollow Fibre Mattress Topper is 7 cm deep and is available in any size to fit your custom or standard sized bed.

Tencel Fabric – A perfect Anti Allergy Mattress Protector, But What Else Does It Do

Tencel Mattress Protector
Tencel Mattress Protector

Tencel fabric makes the perfect anti allergy mattress protector.

Anti Allergy and waterproof mattress protectors of the past have been hampered by one factor, they can be very uncomfortable! Old mattress protectors were made of plastic derivatives with possibly a cotton layer, the main problem with these is that air cannot move through them. Why does this matter? Well, if air cannot move in the bed once you are in it, it becomes warm. This in turn makes you warm, possibly making you too warm and uncomfortable, affecting your nights sleep.

The TENCEL enhanced mattress protector.

TENCEL fabric’s unique qualities mean it protects from dust mites and other allergens and also repels water. But it does all this while also allowing air to pass through its fibres. The breathable quality of the mattress protector means that no air is trapped and the temperature is regulated. This air movement cools the temperature in the bed, making for a much more comfortable nights sleep.

What else can TENCEL do?

Tencel fabric (also known as Lyocell) is a man made artificial fibre in the same vein as Nylon or Polyester. But the difference with this fabric is it has been manufactured from 100% natural wood based cellulose. Because the protector is manufactured from wood pulp it is 100% biodegradable and is considered a natural fibre. The fabric can be made with short or long fibres, when manufactured with short fibres it feels very cotton like, Tencel made with longer fibres give a smooth and silky feel and can be used in elegant formal wear (see this dress for instance)

TENCEL failures

Tencel falls short against natural fibres however when we come to dying processes. The fabric has a low surface energy meaning that it doesn’t bind well which means coloured Tencel fades over time. Bed linen manufacturers such as Victoria Linen only offer their Tencel Protectors in White due to this.

Anti Allergenic Mattress Protectors – Keeping the Bed Bugs at Bay!

Bed Bugs can be something that may never cross your mind or they may be something that you can’t stop thinking about! Whatever you think they are most certainly something you should at least be aware of when it coes to the cleanliness of your home.

There scientific term is Cimicidae but they are more commonly known as dust mites or bed bugs. Theres no nice way of putting this but these insects are parasitic organisms that feed on the dead skin and blood of warm blooded animals. The term bed bug is probably given as this tends to be the place where the insect is most prelavent in the home, here they have the opportunity to feed and breed here unoticed and if left unchecked bed bug infestations can lead to skin irritations and breathing difficulties.

Control of the bed bug is thankfully not a diffcult task, an effective anti allergenic mattress protector will protect you and the mattress from any type of infestation. More advanced mattress protectors can actually inihibit the growth and reproduction of the bed mite. Check out Victoria Linen Co for mattress protectors that are waterproof, anti-allergenic yet allow air to pass through and so regulate temperature in the bed.
