Products
Protect-A-Bed offers a premium line of bedding and health protection products for pillows, mattresses and box springs. Protect-A-Bed’s mattress protector was originally developed and introduced in South Africa in 1980. Until the introduction of mattress protectors by Protect-A-Bed in 2000, the United States market was only familiar with mattress pads. Mattress pads were originally conceptualized when mattresses became thinner and less padded during the depression years.
Today, the only necessary top-of-bed product is a protector that will protect the mattress from contaminants, and the sleeper from allergens – a Protect-A-Bed product. A mattress represents a considerable financial investment worthy of protection against accidents, allergens, and early deterioration. The success of the Protect-A-Bed mattress protectors with consumers is based on the fact that a mattress is in close personal use daily and demands hygienic protection.
In keeping with its culture of innovation, Protect-A-Bed has invested heavily in research and development for mattress encasements that address allergy sufferers, as well as the worldwide emerging bed bug problem. Protect-A-Bed was the first company to commission and successfully complete independent research on its products to prove that it is bed bug escape, entry and bite proof (US Patent No. 7,552,489). Most recently, new fabric technology is being introduced, along with an ergonomics certified pillow.
