How to choose the right size of your ProtecSom anti-dust mite cover for your mattress?

Step 1: Measure your mattress

  1. Remove all bedding from your bed (pillow, duvet, etc.)
  2. Bring a tape measure
  3. Measure the length and then the width of your mattress to the ends (see diagram)
  4. Measure the height of your mattress. To do this, stand at one of the four corners, where it is thickest (see diagram)

Step 2: Choose your ProtecSom cover

After measuring your mattress, we advise you to add 2 cm to the measured height for safety.

Among the ranges offered, we invite you to choose the next highest one.

Example: If your mattress is 21 cm thick (19 cm + 2 cm safety margin), we recommend choosing a cover with a thickness closest to 21 cm (available thicknesses vary depending on the range). For the Noxaalon® , choose a 27 cm cover, and for the Texaal® , choose a 28 cm cover. For the length and width, simply choose the dimensions of your mattress.

Regardless of size, the effectiveness of our covers remains the same !

If your mattress cover seems a little too big, don't worry: it won't affect its protective effectiveness. The important thing is that the mattress is completely covered to isolate you from dust mite allergens.

Information – Texaal® Cotton: To account for the natural shrinkage of cotton, an extra margin is added during the manufacturing of anti-mites (1.5% to 6% depending on the fabric batch). Upon receipt, these covers will be larger than the ordered size; they will reach their final size after a few washes.
