What is a mattress protector?
Both adults and children can have accidents in bed, and here the mattress protector is a good discreet solution. Cocoon's mattress protector is placed on top of the mattress and under the regular bed sheet to provide the best comfort for the child. Mattress protectors for larger mattresses are secured with elastics around the corners of the mattress. This way, the protector stays well in place throughout the night. Mattress protectors for smaller mattresses, where the child does not move much, such as in a crib, pram, and carrycot, are without elastics.

The challenge with regular mattress protectors is that the body cannot breathe through the waterproof layer. Many therefore find it not very comfortable to sleep on a mattress protector. In the development of Cocoon's mattress protector, it was crucial that the layer should be breathable and comfortable to lie on. This has been achieved by coating our unique breathable membrane with the finest fabric of 100% untreated cotton flannel. The unique membrane prevents liquid from penetrating to the mattress while allowing the body to breathe through the protector.

Washing the mattress protector
It is easy and simple to wash Cocoon's mattress protector. However, we recommend that you only wash your protector if necessary, to protect the environment. The mattress protector is 100% OEKO-TEX certified, which means that the protector does not contain residues of harmful chemicals that need to be washed away before use.

We recommend washing the protector at 40 degrees, or a maximum of 60 degrees in case of accidents. Preferably choose a wash program for heavy laundry, as the protector can become heavy when washed, and therefore some washing machines may have difficulty spinning the protector. If it has not been possible to spin out the water during the first spin cycle, we recommend an extra spin. Note that the protector can shrink by up to 8-10%.

The mattress protector should be air-dried and must not be tumble dried.

Breathable Mattress Protector for Juniors and Adults

When your child grows older and transitions from a crib to a junior bed, it doesn't necessarily mean the end of accidents. Juniors can also have accidents in bed during the night, making a mattress protector relevant for the junior bed as well.
