Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Gables Guest House in Windermere needed to bolster its hygiene protocols and protect its recent investment in new high-quality mattresses. After a single costly replacement due to a guest spill, they decided a proactive solution was essential for all ten of their rooms.
"We can't afford to have a room out of action or risk a bad review over cleanliness. These encasements give us complete confidence. They're silent, the guests don't notice them, and our housekeeping team finds them easy to manage. It's an operational essential for us now."
Robert Davies – Proprietor
The guest house has eliminated mattress replacement costs due to stains and reports a 20% reduction in time spent on deep mattress cleaning.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- For best results, wash the protector before its first use to soften the fabric.
- It’s easiest with two people. Start at the top of the mattress and slide the encasement down evenly.
- Pull the sides carefully to avoid stretching or snagging the material on the bed frame.
- Zip it up fully, making sure the special BugLock seal clicks securely into place at the end.
Keeping It Going
- Machine wash on a warm (not hot) cycle with your usual laundry detergent.
- To preserve the waterproof membrane, avoid using bleach or harsh chemical stain removers.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting. High heat can damage the waterproof layer over time.
- Check the zipper and seams periodically to ensure they remain in perfect condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this protector noisy to sleep on?
A: Not at all. It features a smooth microfibre surface designed to be soft and silent under your regular bed sheets.
Q: Will it make the bed hot or sweaty?
A: No, the 'Miracle Membrane' is breathable, allowing body heat and vapour to pass through, so it doesn't trap heat like older plastic-style protectors.
Q: What mattress depth does it fit?
A: It's designed to fit standard UK double mattresses. The fabric has some stretch, but it's best suited for mattresses up to 30cm deep.
Q: Is the entire encasement waterproof?
A: Yes, the protective waterproof membrane covers all six sides of the mattress for complete protection against liquids from any angle.
Q: How does the BugLock feature actually work?
A: It's a patented system with a special zip and a secure sealed end. This flap covers the traditional zip-end gap, creating a barrier that even the smallest bed bugs can't get through.
Q: If I have bed bugs, will this trap them?
A: Yes. If you encase an infested mattress, it will trap any existing bugs inside, cutting them off from their food source and preventing them from spreading.
Q: Can I use fabric softener when I wash it?
A: It's best not to. Fabric softeners can leave a residue on the waterproof membrane that may reduce its effectiveness over time. Normal detergent is all you need.
Q: How often should I wash the encasement?
A: For hygiene, we recommend washing it every 2-3 months, or between long-stay guests, as part of your deep cleaning routine.

Explore more from Protect A BedHow the BugLock Plus System Creates a Mattress Fortress
You might think any old zip can keep pests out, but the tiny gap at the end of a standard zipper is like an open door for bed bugs. The BugLock Plus system is engineered to solve this exact problem. It's not just a zipper; it’s a fully sealed and patented mattress encasement double size system designed for total security.
Think of it like this: a normal protector is a fence, but the BugLock Plus is a castle with a locked gate and a raised drawbridge. The special zip features a unique sealed end-point that clicks shut, creating a seamless barrier with no gaps. This means that not only can new pests not get in, but any allergens or bugs already in the mattress are trapped inside for good, unable to escape or feed. It’s this final, clever detail that makes it a true professional-grade solution.
Who Should Buy This?
- Hotels & B&Bs: Protect your expensive mattresses from accidental damage and ensure five-star hygiene for every guest.
- Student Accommodation Providers: A must-have for high-turnover rooms to prevent pest infestations and uphold cleaning standards.
- Holiday Let & Airbnb Hosts: Safeguard your investment and provide guests with a premium, allergen-free sleeping environment.
