Where would you be without pillows on your bed? Needless to say, it wouldn’t be the most comfortable night’s sleep.
Second to a comfortable mattress, pillows are one of the most important purchases we can make to improve our sleep. You could have the most optimal mattress, but, without the right pillow, your sleep quality becomes seriously compromised. Acknowledging this, it is very much in your best interest to keep your pillows in tip-top shape.
With pillows being such an important asset, you may already have a set of pillow protectors cocooning your pillow, but you may not be aware of the benefits a pillow protector can offer both your wallet and your health.
At Mattressman, we’ve compiled a list of benefits of pillow protectors that you might not have considered:
As implied by their name, pillow protectors serve one main purpose: to defend our pillows against damage and dirt. Not only do pillow protectors keep our beloved pillows clean, but they are a pivotal tool in helping defend against both bed bugs and dust mites.
If you’re wondering how to use a pillow protector, don’t fret; pillow protectors are applied much in the same way as pillowcases, except they often come with thicker material for increased protection and, sometimes, comfort.
When it comes to their operation, pillow protectors are incredibly simple. Applying is as simple as placing your pillow inside, allowing the protector to do the rest.
The very best pillow protectors are often made from a synthetic polyester material that is more durable and less susceptible to accidents than bare pillows. This means that, in the unfortunate event of a night-time accident, your pillow remains free of stains and odours.
As we sleep, our bodies produce excess sweat that can find its way onto our pillows. A protector can help to keep this away from your pillows, preventing odours and stains from developing. Most pillow protectors are machine-washable and can be easily maintained and kept at their best.
Protectors are a great way to prolong the lifespan of your pillows, helping to prevent regular wear and tear. If you are able to maintain the cleanliness of your pillows by using a protector, the less frequently you will need to replace them.
Pillows are a great home for dust, which can be a problem if you suffer from allergies or asthma. Using a pillow protector can prevent the build-up of dust mites and other allergens that can trigger symptoms.
Pillow protectors can also add comfort. S, so, if your pillows are in need of a refresh, protectors are a great way of giving them a new lease of life, as well as adding an extra layer of plushness.
Now we’re getting into the chillier seasons, it’s the time of year that you may consider refreshing and replacing your current bedding – and now you know the benefits of pillow protectors, you can include them in your shop. If you fancy some plump new pillows too, our range can be found right here.
