A clean and sanitized mattress is a healthy mattress
Cleaning the mattress has been part of household chores for years. You may recall watching your mother drag out a mattress on a cold day and beat the living daylights out of it. She knew what she was doing. First, she was literally knocking the dust mites out of the mattress and, second, the timing was correct because the cold helps kill of dust mites.

There is no need to remove the mattress from your bed. Our cleaning system won’t damage the frame. And we use the same mattress sanitizing system that has produced terrific results for years in Europe. Here’s how it works:
- High frequency waves loosen and pulverise the dust mites
- UV-C rays pass over the mattress, killing off dust mites, bacteria, viruses, and spores, effectively sterilising the mattress without the need for chemicals.
- Dust mites and excrement are removed by a powerful vacuum system, incorporating a HEPA filter to prevent any particles escaping.
- A unique, chemical free disinfecting spray is applied to the mattress. The spray, which is harmless for both humans and pets, helps kill off the bacteria and acts as a repellent and a retardant to dust mite reproduction.
- The UVC treatment removes odours that are caused by bacteria that normal cleaning leaves behind. Ultraviolet light is a natural part of everyday sunlight, and it is an essential part of the light spectrum. UVC light is a proven antimicrobial agent used in a wide variety of purification and sanitization processes. UVC light has been used safely in hospitals, clinics and laboratories for more than 60 years to sterilize surgical equipment, water and the air in operating rooms, and in germicidal lamps to disinfect various types of product containers in other industries.
