The European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF) has awarded its Seal of Quality for allergy-friendly products to Pulmanova allergen proof encasings.
Allergens such as animal hair, pollen, or dust mites are present in every normal household, with the potential to trigger allergic reactions in persons with allergy symptoms. The resulting discomfort can have a significant impact on the quality of life of those affected.
Allergen-proof protective covers – called encasings – for mattresses, blankets, and pillows, can prevent allergic reactions such as asthma. The certified encasings consist of three layers of fleece that reliably hold back even the smallest particles and allergens, while still allowing air and moisture to circulate.
The manufacturer MEDI TECH GmbH specializes in orthopaedics and dust allergy protection and is located in Münster.
