protection against asthma and dust mites

Is your bed as fresh and healthy as you think?

Statistics tell us that 70% of asthma in homes can be attributed to an allergen called “Der P1”, present in the excretia of house dust mites. It is also a fact that the number of people, especially children, who are affected by this allergen rises each year. Up to 5% of the population now suffers from asthma and 20% from allergic rhinitis. This is the most common illness of our time.

Today’s lifestyle and the home environment created by double-glazing and central heating provides all the ingredients for the dust mite to thrive: moisture, warmth and food.

scientific research

Scientific research has revealed groundbreaking results. Fifty patients with a known history of allergenic reaction participated in the testing based on the effects of Amicor Pure fibre in bedding. Amicor Pure completely prevents house dust mites from living in bedding materials and the tests measured the fibre’s effects in real life. Over a period of 13 weeks, patients used Amicor Pure bedding in their own homes and recorded their symptoms and use of inhalers on a daily basis.

Results proved with ten of the fifty patients a reduction of all of their symptoms and after just a few weeks, a general improvement. Some patients felt well enough to stop using their inhalers on a daily basis.

96% Improvement of symptoms, measured on a daily basis
81% Reduction in use of inhalers per patient

500.000 dust mites live in the average bed and bedding. By breaking their lifecycle, Amicor Pure totally prevents dust mites from entering.
