People of all ages can experience issues with bedwetting or be bothered by nocturnal incontinence, and there's no denying that accidents in bed are disruptive for both young and old. Here, a mattress protector can be the solution.
At Cocoon Company, we have developed mattress protectors consisting of two soft layers of heavy cotton flannel, enclosing a biodegradable membrane that makes it completely waterproof. This combination ensures that the body can breathe throughout the night – a feature often missing in traditional mattress protectors. Our mattress protectors are also OEKO-TEX®-certified and are 100% free from harmful substances.
A mattress protector is a waterproof sheet that you place in the bed between the sheet and the (top)mattress. The mattress protector (also commonly called a pee sheet) ensures that nocturnal urination and accidents do not seep into the mattress. The liquid remains in the pee sheet, which can then be easily washed and replaced with a dry one if an accident occurs.
Our Cocoon Company mattress protectors are a fantastic aid in everyday life with small children in the house. Or for people with nocturnal incontinence, where you want a comfortable, breathable, and waterproof underlay in the bed.
It is common for babies and small children to spit up or have accidents from the diaper, which can make the night difficult for parents. With a pee sheet from Cocoon Company, you can create a barrier between the mattress and the child, so you don't have to spend a lot of time cleaning a soaked mattress. The sheet is soft, waterproof, and allows the skin to breathe, so the child can sleep safely and comfortably.
However, Cocoon Company mattress protectors are not just for the little ones. They come in various sizes, including for adult beds, and are a good solution for people who experience nocturnal incontinence or sweat a lot. The sheets function as a discreet and practical aid that protects the mattress from moisture and odors without compromising the comfort of the sleeper.
Cocoon Company's mattress protectors are available in many different sizes, so you can always find the right protection for the mattress, no matter where the need arises – whether you need a mattress protector in 60 x 120 or 180 x 200:
Baby carrycot 31 x 75 cm
Prams 37 x 96 cm and 34 x 78 cm
Baby beds 60 x 120 cm etc.
Junior beds 70 x 160 cm and 90 x 200 cm
Adult beds 180 x 200 cm
Thus, it is a product that can be used in many different contexts depending on the situation you face at home. And one thing is certain: A mattress protector from Cocoon Company will become your new best friend if you have previously been disturbed by nocturnal awakenings due to a wet bed somewhere in the house.
The unique thing about the mattress protectors from Cocoon Company is that they are breathable and comfortable to sleep on. This has been the core of our development of the mattress protectors we can offer today for both children and adults.
The reason for this is that we wanted to differentiate ourselves from many of the mattress protectors we see on the market today, which consist of artificial, plastic-containing materials. It can obviously be extremely disruptive to our sleep if we sleep on a synthetic underlay with a layer of plastic that does not allow the body to breathe. Therefore, choose a mattress protector that allows your body to release heat when you lie on it and does not give you the experience of sleeping on a piece of crackling plastic. Our mattress protectors feel and look like a regular sheet and make no noise when you move on it in your sleep.
You use a mattress protector in your child's sleeping environments to avoid accidents that seep into the mattress. It gives you and your child a calmer night's sleep without major disturbances because you avoid the entire mattress getting wet.
You can start using our mattress protectors right from birth. Small children will often both spit up and have accidents from the diaper that seep into the bed. When your child gets older and practices becoming diaper-free, it can occasionally happen that the child involuntarily wets the bed at night. In these situations, it's just super nice that the child sleeps on a waterproof underlay.
The mattress protector is incredibly easy to use because it can simply be thrown in the washing machine if it gets wet. This is different from if an accident happens on a mattress – such a mattress can be extremely difficult to wash thoroughly if urine has penetrated the filling.
Our mattress protectors are equipped with a wide elastic in all four corners, which is pulled down around your mattress or mattress topper before the sheet is finally placed on the bed. However, there are no elastics on the smallest mattress protectors for carrycot, pram, crib, etc., as these are so small. Here you simply place the mattress protector on top of, for example, your crib mattress and then pull a fitted sheet over it.
You can also choose to buy our larger mattress protectors and use them as a cross sheet across the mattress, so the waterproof surface only covers the area in the middle of the body.
Whether you place the mattress protector over or under your mattress pad is a matter of taste. Both are possible. But if you place your mattress protector under our kapok mattress pads, you get even better breathability for the bed.
Children of all ages can experience bedwetting at night. Most children become dry and diaper-free between the ages of 2-4 years, but about 10% experience that bedwetting continues. And it can be a great nuisance, both for the child and for the parents.
When the child becomes aware of it, it can also impose some social limitations on the child. Perhaps they feel they cannot sleep over at friends' houses or go on trips where there is overnight accommodation because it is "embarrassing" if the bed is wet in the morning. In such cases, the child may need to sleep with a night diaper, alarm device, or incontinence underwear. But by placing our discreet mattress protectors in the bed under the regular sheet, your child can easily have friends over for sleepovers without anyone noticing the bedwetting. At the same time, it gives the whole family a better night's sleep, as you don't have to make major bed changes during the night. A new pee sheet on the bed, and everyone is ready to sleep again.

Involuntary urination in bed and nocturnal incontinence can unfortunately often be associated with much shame and frustration. Our comfortable and breathable mattress protectors help to remove some of the worries that may fill your everyday life and ensure you a calm and undisturbed night's sleep. The sheets are very discreet and look mostly like an extra small mattress pad. So you can confidently have our mattress protectors in your bed.
We have the mattress protectors in stock up to size 90 x 200 cm. If you wish to use our mattress protector as a cross sheet across the bed, we recommend our 90 x 160 cm mattress protector.
The quality of our mattress protectors is really good. They can easily be used as a positioning aid in connection with bed baths, diaper changes in bed, etc., for bedridden and immobilized people who need a little extra help.

Fortunately, it is quite easy to wash Cocoon Company's mattress protectors. We always recommend that you only wash the pee sheet when necessary. By washing less and at lower temperatures, we protect the environment. Therefore, we recommend washing at 40 degrees or a maximum of 60 degrees if needed.
It can be a good idea to choose a program on the machine for heavy laundry, as the mattress protectors become relatively heavy when soaked in the washing machine. If necessary, you can give the sheet an extra spin.
The mattress protector is best hung to dry, so it stretches a bit back to its original shape and size. Do not use a tumble dryer. Also note that the mattress protectors shrink about 8-10% when washed. Therefore, gently stretch them a bit in a wet state before hanging them up.
