December 17, 2025

Millions of people suffer from allergic rhinitis and asthma caused by house dust mites. These mites thrive in warm, humid environments such as the bed, where they feed on dead skin cells. More than the mites themselves, their droppings and dead mite debris are the main triggers for allergic reactions. The allergenic particles can be as small as 2 microns.
To minimize contact with allergens, mattresses, comforters, and pillows should be enclosed in dust- and allergen-proof encasings.

What allergy sufferers should look for in mite-proof covers

If you suffer from a dust mite allergy, you know how important restful sleep is. But not every mite-proof cover delivers what it promises. Experts have established that high-quality protective covers should meet several criteria.
A fully zipped cover with tight seams and flaps or tabs is essential to ensure that allergens remain securely enclosed in the mattress, pillow or duvet. It is important that the protection is provided not by chemical biocides, but exclusively by the dense structure of the material – this is healthier and more skin-friendly. At the same time, the material should be breathable despite its protective density, as moisture not only impairs restful sleep, but also creates ideal living conditions for mites. Equally important is the combination of washability at high temperatures and long service life: your cover remains hygienically clean for years without losing its protective effect – a sustainable investment in your health.

Evolon® meets all the fabric-related requirements, feel pleasantly soft, 
do not cause any annoying rustling and offer you the allergen barrier effect you need for a restful sleep.
