Mattress Care Guide
Look after your mattress.
And enjoy the comfort for longer.
A few simple care habits can help protect your mattress, encourage balanced use and keep your sleeping area clean and comfortable.
Give your rating
Time to air the room.
In the first few hours after receiving your new mattress, carefully unwrap it, allow fresh air to circulate around it, and give it plenty of time to settle.
Carefully remove the packaging
Open the mattress packaging carefully and avoid using sharp objects near the surface of the mattress or the fabric.
Let the fresh air circulate
Leave the mattress uncovered in a well-ventilated room so that it is exposed to fresh air before making the bed.
Give it time to settle
If necessary, leave the new mattress for up to 24 hours to air and settle before using it as normal.
Check the bed base
Before using the mattress on a regular basis, make sure that the bed base, frame and supporting legs are stable and suitable.
Simple habits.
For a better night’s sleep.
Looking after your mattress doesn’t have to involve complicated steps. Follow a simple routine based on protection, ventilation, balanced use and proper cleaning.
Routine
Flip your mattress
Rotate the mattress from the head end to the foot end periodically to help distribute wear evenly. Do not flip the mattress unless the care instructions for that particular model allow it.
Use a mattress protector
The right mattress protector provides an extra layer of protection against everyday spills, moisture and surface dirt.
Allow the mattress to air out
Make sure you air your bedroom regularly and leave the mattress exposed to the air when you change the bed linen.
Keep it clean and dry
Deal with spills straight away, avoid soaking the mattress, and make sure it is completely dry before putting the bed linen back on.
Protect the roof.
And keep the sleeping area clear.
A mattress protector is one of the simplest ways to minimise direct exposure of the mattress to moisture, spills and everyday surface dirt.
Choose a mattress protector that is suitable for your mattress, wash it according to the care instructions, and make sure both the protector and the mattress are completely dry before making the bed.
