The original Protect-A-Bed premium fitted sheet style mattress protector is constructed using a cotton terry toweling sleeping surface, laminated to a Miracle Membrane®. In keeping with its culture of innovation, Protect-A-Bed invested heavily in research and development and expanded the product line to include mattress encasements that more fully address the specific problems of allergy sufferers (more than 50 percent of the general population), as well as the world wide emerging bed bug problem. New sleeping surfaces were introduced at the same time to address market needs.
Protect-A-Bed was the first company to commission and successfully complete independent research on its products to prove that it is bed bug escape, entry and bite proof. The bed bug control products features the unique patented (US Patent No. 7,552,489) Bug Lock® zipper closure and reinforced French seams. Protect-A-Bed worked closely with leading entomologists for testing purposes throughout the development and refinement of the product,
Protect-A-Bed’s AllerZip® product won the Editors’ Choice Award in the Essentials category At the 92nd annual International Hotel/Motel & Restaurant Show® (November 2007) underscoring the market need for encasement products. The company’s storage or disposal bag won the essentials award in 2009.
Innovation at Protect-A-Bed did not end at the introduction of encasement products. During the last two years Protect-A-Bed introduced products aimed at safe and hygienic disposal of bed bug infested bedding, and developed several waterproof mattress pad solutions for customers that still prefer a mattress pad, but with the added benefits of the Miracle Membrane® barrier. Several new fabric choices have been added and the innovation continues.
Protect-A-Bed® offers consumers a complete line of protective bedding products because every mattress needs protection. Now selling in 30 countries for more than 30 years, the company is a worldwide leader in mattress protection innovation. Protect-A-Bed products create a dry, hygienic, bed bug free and anti-allergy "Healthy Sleep Zone"while protecting the mattress warranty. The company developed the proprietary Miracle Membrane® and patented BugLock® with SecureSeal® and three-sided zipper system. Protect-A-Bed products are listed as Class 1 Medical Devices with the Food and Drug Administration and have received the Good Housekeeping Seal.
The Protect-A-Bed brand has become synonymous with mattress pads and mattress protectors. The only necessary top of bed product is a protector that will protect the mattress from contaminants, and the sleeper from allergens – a Protect-A-Bed product.
