Breathable Mattress Protector for Baby

Are you a mom or dad? Then you are surely familiar with the many accidents that can occur in the crib, carrycot, or pram. Pee accidents, spit-up, etc., can make the baby mattress quite dirty. Later, when the child is learning to sleep without a diaper, it's also quite normal for accidents to happen in bed. Here, a mattress protector is a great supplement. At Cocoon Company, we have a wide range of breathable and chemical-free mattress protectors for the pram, crib, cot, changing table, etc. The baby mattress protector is available in several sizes, find them all here.

What is a Mattress Protector?

Both big and small 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 achieve the best comfort for the child. The mattress protector for larger mattresses is secured with elastics around the mattress corners. This way, the sheet stays well in place throughout the night. Mattress protectors for smaller mattresses, where the child doesn't move much, i.e., 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 was achieved by covering our unique breathable membrane with the finest fabric of 100% untreated cotton flannel. The unique membrane prevents liquid from penetrating the mattress while allowing the body to breathe through the sheet.

Washing the Mattress Protector

It's easy and simple to wash Cocoon's mattress protector. However, we recommend only washing your sheet if necessary to protect the environment. The mattress protector is 100% Oeko-tex certified, meaning the sheet does not contain residues of harmful chemicals that need to be washed away before use.

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

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

We believe it's the best sheet in Denmark!

We are so happy and excited about our jersey fitted sheet for carrycot that we dare to claim it's the best fitted sheet in Denmark! Fortunately, we are not the only ones with this opinion, and we have therefore expanded our range several times with more sizes to meet your demand!

Our jersey fitted sheet for carrycot is made in a lovely and sturdy quality, woven from the softest 100% organic jersey cotton. Our sheet is produced and processed without the use of chemicals or synthetic fibers. Complete your child's organic sleeping environment with a duvet and mattress.

We guarantee a 100% organic product that hasn't seen the shadow of synthetic fibers, pesticides, or chemicals!

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS

The fitted sheet is durable and can be washed at 60 degrees. Since we have not used chemicals or synthetic fibers in the production of our sheet, we recommend using a gentle and chemical-free detergent for your sheet. This way, you ensure that your sheet remains 100% organic. You can, for example, use our soapberries, which are a 100% natural detergent.

Create a healthy and safe sleeping environment with kapok

A Cocoon Kapok mattress pad for carrycot 31X75 is the perfect addition to any mattress if you want a soft and temperature-regulating base. A kapok mattress pad is a soft and protective layer between the mattress and the child. The mattress pad can help your child achieve an enchanting sleep. The kapok mattress pad helps to transport excess heat away from the child and ensures that your child will have an undisturbed, temperature-regulated, and dry sleep.

HYPOALLERGENIC

Kapok contains a natural bitter substance, which makes the fiber resistant to bacteria and dust mites.

VEGAN & ORGANIC

Kapok is a fiber collected from kapok trees, which grow wild in the tropical rainforests. Our kapok is untreated, with a cover of 100% organic certified cotton.

TEMPERATURE-REGULATING

Due to the fiber's fantastic breathability and moisture-wicking properties, you will achieve a wonderfully temperature-regulated and dry night's sleep.

GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP WITH A KAPOK MATTRESS PAD

A kapok mattress pad is a great addition to any mattress - whether you have a foam, latex, or kapok mattress. If you tend to get too warm at night, it might be an idea not only to change your duvet but also to use a kapok mattress pad on top of your existing mattress. Foam and latex mattresses are not very breathable or good at temperature regulation, and therefore they can contribute to you getting too warm at night. Therefore, it might be an idea to add a moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating base to your bed.

The mattress pad quickly reaches body temperature, but as soon as the mattress pad becomes warm, it remains body-neutral due to the fiber's airy structure. The airy structure of the kapok fiber is also the reason why the kapok mattress pad can wick moisture and regulate temperature. A kapok mattress pad can therefore ensure that you do not get too warm and remain dry throughout the night.

Due to kapok's airy structure, the fiber does not absorb moisture but instead transports moisture through its fibers. In this way, your mattress pad remains dry all night. Another advantage is that this property makes the kapok fiber resistant to, among other things, dust mites, as mites can only live in a humid environment.

The natural choice for your baby

Our kapok LUX carrycot mattress is a fantastic alternative to a regular foam carrycot mattress if you want a hypoallergenic and chemical-free mattress for your child. This kapok carrycot mattress is filled with our organic natural fiber kapok and covered with organically certified cotton. The size may vary slightly as our kapok mattresses are hand-stuffed and sewn. The difference between the regular kapok carrycot mattress and this LUX version is the thickness. This LUX carrycot mattress is thicker and softer, offering a fantastic luxurious feel to the carrycot.

WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE A KAPOK CARRYCOT MATTRESS ...

The kapok fiber is known for its temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties. When you sleep on a kapok mattress, your bed will neither be damp, cold, nor too warm. A kapok mattress is therefore especially suitable for infants. Newborns have difficulty regulating their temperature on their own. It is important for newborns that their temperature remains around 37 degrees, and they must neither become cold nor too warm. Therefore, a kapok baby mattress is the perfect choice for newborns. The fiber quickly reaches body temperature and helps the child regulate warmth. Another advantage of choosing a kapok mattress is that the kapok fiber is resistant to mites, such as dust mites. They like to live in a humid environment, but since the kapok fiber does not absorb moisture, dust mites cannot live in a kapok fiber. Furthermore, our kapok is 100% organic without the addition of chemicals, pesticides, etc. You can safely put your little one on our kapok mattress, knowing that your child is lying on a 100% hypoallergenic mattress.

CREATE A HEALTHY SLEEP ENVIRONMENT WITH KAPOK

Getting a good night's sleep is important for our health. Especially for newborns and babies who sleep 12-15 hours a day! Therefore, we believe it is important to find the sleep products that suit the child's preferences and needs. When you choose sleep products filled with kapok fibers, you are guaranteed a pleasantly tempered and dry night's sleep, with both an organic and hypoallergenic product. To give your child the best possible comfort during sleep, you can choose to add a kapok mattress pad to your kapok baby mattress. A kapok mattress is firm, as recommended for newborns. But if you want to add a little extra softness and comfort, a kapok mattress pad is an obvious choice. To protect your kapok mattresses, we recommend using our organic jersey sheet. The fitted sheet is woven from 100% organic cotton without the addition of synthetic fibers. If you want to give your child a 100% organic and chemical-free night's sleep, you can also supplement with one of our baby duvets and pillows. All our series are 100% organic and chemical-free. See our duvet guide to find out which duvet and pillow your baby should have.

MAINTENANCE OF YOUR KAPOK MATTRESS

As with all mattresses, it is a good idea to stand the mattress on its side occasionally to air it out. If you have a bed with a solid base, you should be particularly attentive to airing the mattress regularly. These bed bases make it harder to transport moisture away from the mattress. Kapok transports moisture and heat away from the child, but if the moisture cannot escape from the bottom of the mattress, it gets trapped between the mattress and the solid base. In the worst case, this can lead to mold spores forming under the mattress. Unfortunately, this can happen regardless of the mattress used. Therefore, air the mattress once a week, or as needed.

The PAPILIO mattress is a mattress like no other. The carrycot mattress is meticulously handmade from start to finish, using only the purest organic materials of the highest quality possible. The core of the carrycot mattress consists of 100% organic natural latex with a layer of untreated organic New Zealand wool around it.

• 100% organic materials
• 0% chemicals
• 0% off-gassing VOCs, such as formaldehyde or dimethylformamide
• Breathable and temperature-regulating
• Naturally resistant to dust mites

IT'S WHAT'S INSIDE THAT COUNTS...

The PAPILIO mattress is made exclusively with three natural and organic materials and is not treated with or infused with any chemicals, either during or after production. You can therefore rest assured knowing that the mattress does not emit any off-gassing substances or chemicals during your child's sleep.

GOLS CERTIFIED 100% NATURAL LATEX

The second key ingredient in the PAPILIO carrycot mattress is the 100% organic natural latex used for the softer part of the mattress core. Natural latex is known for its soft and comfortable body support as well as its superior breathability. 100% natural latex is also naturally resistant to bacteria, mold, mildew, dust mites, and other allergens, and is naturally hypoallergenic. However, not all natural latex is created equal. Often, natural latex is mixed with synthetic latex or fillers to create a cheaper mattress.

Therefore, it was incredibly important for us to create a natural latex that is certified organic. Our natural latex is GOLS certified, which guarantees that the natural latex is free from artificial and harmful additives and that the natural latex comes from organic latex plantations where it has been cultivated without the use of artificial fertilizers or pesticides. Thus, you can be sure that the latex core is made of 100% natural rubber and does not contain synthetic latex, chemicals, or fillers.

ORGANIC & UNTREATED NEW ZEALAND WOOL

The cover around the mattress core is quilted with a layer of luxurious organic and untreated wool from New Zealand. The wool provides the mattress with fantastic temperature-regulating properties, as the wool's air-filled fibers create natural insulation under the child. The lanolin in the wool also helps to carry excess heat and moisture through the fiber and away from the child. The natural occurrence of lanolin also makes the wool resistant to dust mites and contributes to the mattress's hypoallergenic properties. The organic wool is also naturally flame retardant, so the mattress does not need to be treated with harmful flame retardants.

GOTS CERTIFIED ORGANIC AND UNTREATED COTTON

The cover is quilted with an unbleached and undyed organic cotton fabric, protecting the child's sensitive skin and allergies. The cover cannot be removed but can be easily spot cleaned with a well-wrung cloth. Therefore, if you want to take extra care of the mattress in case of accidents, we recommend adding a breathable mattress protector.

• 100% organic materials
• 0% chemicals
• 0% off-gassing VOCs, such as formaldehyde or dimethylformamide
• Incredibly breathable and temperature-regulating
• Good support for the child in its early days, as recommended by health authorities and sleep experts

IT'S WHAT'S INSIDE THAT COUNTS

The PAPILIO mattress is made exclusively with three natural and organic materials and is not treated with or added any chemicals, either during or after production. You can therefore rest assured that the mattress does not emit any off-gassing substances or chemicals in connection with your child's sleep.

ORGANIC COCONUT FIBER WITH NATURAL LATEX

One of the key ingredients in our PAPILIO mattress is the organic coconut fiber used in the mattress core. The coconut fibers are extracted through coconut production, washed and softened, after which the fibers are bound together into ropes that transform the fibers into small springs. The coconut fibers are then bound together with natural latex and formed into springy core components that provide a firm and supportive base in the mattress. As the coconut fiber layer is composed of large fibers, the base contains many continuous air channels, giving the mattress base incredibly high breathability. The high breathability allows the child to release excess heat and moisture during a period when it has difficulty self-regulating its body temperature.

The firm base and high breathability make the coconut base perfect for the child's very first days in this world, where sleep is such an important part of the child's life. Health authorities, doctors, and sleep experts recommend a firm base with high breathability for the child's early days, as the child's body is not fully developed and cannot turn away from suffocation hazards. Therefore, we recommend that the side closest to the coconut core is used in the child's early days until the child is big enough to turn itself.

ORGANIC & UNTREATED NEW ZEALAND WOOL

The cover around the mattress core is quilted with a layer of luxurious organic and untreated wool from New Zealand. The wool gives the mattress fantastic temperature-regulating properties, as the wool's air-filled fibers form natural insulation under the child. The lanolin in the wool also ensures that excess heat and moisture are carried through the fiber and away from the child. The natural occurrence of lanolin also makes the wool resistant to dust mites and contributes to the mattress's hypoallergenic properties. The organic wool is also naturally flame retardant, so the mattress does not need to be added or treated with harmful flame retardants.

The cover is quilted with an unbleached and undyed organic cotton fabric, taking care of the child's sensitive skin and allergies. The cover cannot be removed but can be easily spot cleaned with a well-wrung cloth. Therefore, if you want to take extra care of the mattress in case of accidents, we recommend adding a breathable mattress protector.
