Night Night by Allersafe Baby Bedding Range

We all acknowledge that a growing number of children are suffering from asthma and allergies. It is predicted that by 2010, 1 in 3 children will suffer from an allergy. The reasons for this significant increase are thought to be complex and it will be some time before scientists know all of the answers. However, we all know that asthma is a response to an irritant (trigger) that we are sensitive too. We also know that one of the major irritants within the home is the dust mite allergen. So, how does a child become sensitive to the dust mite allergen?

Sensitisation to an irritant is normally caused by exposure to a certain concentration of the irritant over a period of time. In the case of the dust mite allergen we know that the critical concentration is 10 micrograms/g of household dust. If a baby/young child is therefore exposed to this concentration of dust mite allergen for a period of time then there is a risk that they will become sensitive to that allergen. An asthma attack can then be triggered by exposure to a much lower concentration of the allergen, 2 micrograms/g in fact.

In view of this significant increase in childhood asthma, Allersafe took the decision to introduce a new range of  baby bedding that would help to protect baby from breathing this critical concentration of allergen. Like all Allersafe bedding, the baby bedding products will significantly reduce the amount of allergen allowed to develop in the bedding itself. Used as part of an allergen reduction programme within the home, the Night Night range helps to reduce the risk of sensitisation.

The Night Night range is therefore designed to help reduce the risk of sensitisation rather than to help reduce the risk of an allergic response. So, give your child the best possible start in life, give them the gift of the Night Night by Allersafe bedding.  

All our bedding is safe and meets the Okotex class 1 standards.

Sheila Bell, Retired Headmistress from Lanarkshire says - 

“Changing my bedding to Allersafe has made such a huge difference to my life.  Having not slept properly for years, it’s nothing short of a miracle that I can get a full eight hours of sleep now.  Plus, I’m sure it’s helping me to cope with my other allergies. 

I have hypersensitive skin and a severe allergy to the house dust mite meaning I used to have to steam clean my entire bedroom at least twice a week - now thanks to Allersafe that only happens twice a month.  Allersafe is gentle on my skin and easy to care for with proven long lasting anti-allergen quality - changing my bedding was the best thing I could have ever done for my health.”

I just wanted to praise you on your fantastic service, my parcel arrived exactly when you said it would and everything was fine.  My son and husband both suffer from dust mite allergy and I have tried other company's products to alleviate their suffering, none of them have been as successful as your products. My son now sleeps through the night without sneezing 20 times and having to use his inhaler all the time! Everything I've ordered from you has been such good quality.
Thank you
ps. I will be ordering more!

" Thanks for making such great products!  It must be very satisfying helping people with their Allergies.

Professor Jean Emberlin, Director National Pollen and Aerobiology Research Unit, Institute of Health, University College Worcester says -

“Allersafe’s products are scientifically proven, and provide a complete sleep system to help prevent reactions to dust mite allergens.  The Amicor Pure anti-bacerial and anti-fungal fibre used to make Allersafe bedding is a major breakthrough in tackling dust mites and related allergens, as it creates an environment that helps to elimate dustmites. 

Tom James, Olympic Gold Medallist Rower, Athens 2004 and Cambridge Undergraduate says -

“I have suffered with allergies all my life and in the past, my asthma and allergies have often hindered my performance.  Since using Allersafe I have noticed a a clear improvement in my symptoms , especially in the morning, it used to take me around three hours for the sniffling and itching to clear but now it’s hardly even present.  I just feel like I’m sleeping in a cleaner bed and my sleeping has improved greatly as I find it easier to breathe.  The fact I have been sleeping more soundly means I have more energy to concentrate on my training throughout the day.”
