Dust Mite- and Allergen-Proof Comforter; "DreamFill / Premium Microfiber"
The MISSION: ALLERGY Premium Microfiber Fabric on the outside of these comforters is the ultimate allergen-barrier: totally effective, silky soft, and lightweight. With a mean pore size of 2 microns it blocks all allergens, yet is air-permeable, making it completely comfortable. It does not allow any allergen escape, as do many cotton barrier-fabrics. These MISSION: ALLERGY Allergen-Proof Comforters are filled with luxurious DreamFill, ultra-fine fibers that are as soft as silk, with superior lofting quality and a light, down-like feeling, providing softness, resilience, comfort, and warmth. These medical-grade comforters are suitable for adults or children with allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, or allergic eczema-or simply for good hygiene. They are the ultimate allergen-proof comforters for protection, comfort, and durability. 10" quilted box pattern. Available in White, Natural and Blue-Gray; color-coordinated Shams and Bedskirts are also available. 100% Woven Polyester Microfiber shell; 100% polyester filling. Note: These allergen-proof comforters are available exclusively from MISSION: ALLERGY. Do not confuse them with other comforters sold as "hypoallergenic". The term "hypoallergenic" refers only to the fact that the interior filling of the comforter does not itself cause allergy-not to whether it can become colonized with dust mites! Our comforters have a Premium Microfiber allergen-barrier exterior, and thus cannot become colonized with mites (or bedbugs). They therefore do not require encasing or hot water washing."Be sure you get ... from a reputable company, like Mission: Allergy..."
