Wool contains a natural fat called lanolin. Lanolin is a unique blend of natural waxes with an incredible ability to allow moisture and dirt to evaporate from the wool. In this way, the wool always remains dry and therefore free from bacteria, as bacteria in fibers prefer a moist environment.<\/p>\n<p>At Woolbed we recommend all dust-mite allergy sufferers to sleep in wool, as its dry environment is the only thing that helps in the fight against mites. Dust mites are microscopic spider-like creatures that live in our beds and are considered one of the most harmful pests for humans. This tiny pest causes most cases of asthma and allergies every year. Wool is the cleanest and most hypoallergenic material we can sleep in. Additional benefits are that wool regulates body temperature and improves blood circulation. When wool comes into contact with the skin, a small friction is created, called \u201cmicromassage\u201d, which triggers increased blood circulation.<\/p>\n<p>Merino lambswool comes from the merino lamb. The lambs are raised only for their wool and are shorn when they are 9\u201312 months old. At Woolbed we import only merino lambswool from New Zealand. The incredibly soft and silky cashmere comes from the cashmere goat. They live in extremely cold climates in Tibet, China, Pakistan and India. Cashmere is combed and sorted by hand as it is very delicate. Each goat provides around 120 grams of cashmere, which explains the high prices due to the very low yield.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;100px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;parallax&#8221; content_aligment=&#8221;center&#8221; full_screen_section_height=&#8221;no&#8221; parallax_background_image=&#8221;8687&#8243; parallax_speed=&#8221;0&#8243; el_id=&#8221;care&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner content_aligment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1761139118466{border-top-width: 2px !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.55) !important;*background-color: rgb(255,255,255) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;100px&#8221;][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;Washing &#038; care instructions \u2013 mattress covers&#8221; color=&#8221;custom&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1761138650561{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#b20838&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1761138773628{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221; disable_pattern=&#8221;true&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243;]The mattress cover is tested and approved according to \u00d6ko-Standard 100.
