Bed Bug Mattress Protector Guide

Over 10 Years of Manufacturing Experience

We have been manufacturing and supplying fully enclosed bed bug mattress encasements and mattress protectors for over 10 years.

Our focus has always been simple: manufacture a bed bug mattress encasement designed to help protect mattresses from bed bugs. Every aspect of the product, from the fabric selection to the zip construction and protective zip guard, has been developed with that objective in mind.

During that time, we have supplied thousands of bed bug mattress encasements to UK consumers, landlords, hotels, accommodation providers and businesses.

Unlike a standard mattress protector, a bed bug mattress encasement completely surrounds the mattress and is designed specifically for applications where complete mattress coverage is required.


What Is a Bed Bug Mattress Encasement?

A bed bug mattress encasement is designed to completely cover the mattress and close securely with a zip.

Unlike a standard mattress protector, a bed bug mattress encasement surrounds all sides of the mattress, providing complete mattress coverage.


Why Use a Bed Bug Mattress Encasement?

Helps Protect Your Mattress

A mattress is one of the largest and most expensive items in the bedroom. A fully enclosed bed bug mattress encasement helps keep the mattress covered during everyday use.

Fully Enclosed Design

Unlike standard fitted mattress protectors, a bed bug mattress encasement completely surrounds the mattress, covering the top, bottom and all four sides.


The Importance of Zip Design

A bed bug mattress encasement is only as good as its closure system.

Our bed bug mattress encasements incorporate a heavy-duty fabric zip guard positioned at the end of the zip closure. This additional fabric section is designed to cover the zip termination point once the encasement has been fully closed.

The zip guard forms an integral part of the overall encasement design and has been included in our products for many years.


Choosing the Right Bed Bug Mattress Encasement

When selecting a bed bug mattress encasement, consider the following features:

  • Fully enclosed design

  • Secure zip closure

  • Heavy-duty fabric zip guard

  • Durable construction

  • Appropriate fabric weight

  • Breathable fabric

  • Machine washable material

  • Correct mattress sizing

A bed bug mattress encasement should fit securely around the mattress without excessive stretching or loose fabric.


Frequently Asked Questions

Is a bed bug mattress encasement the same as a standard mattress protector?

No. A standard mattress protector usually covers only the top and sides of the mattress, whereas a bed bug mattress encasement is designed to surround the entire mattress.

Can I sleep on a bed bug mattress encasement?

Yes. Bed bug mattress encasements are designed to remain on the mattress during normal use.

How often should I wash a bed bug mattress encasement?

Always follow the care instructions supplied with the product.

Does a bed bug mattress encasement replace professional pest control treatment?

No. If you suspect a bed bug infestation, a mattress encasement should be considered as part of a wider approach and does not replace professional advice or treatment where required.
