these Instructions for Use
1. Interesting facts
Over the past several years the number of people allergic to house dust and dust mites has in-
creased dramatically. Irritation of the eyes, attacks of sneezing and coughing and shortness of
breath in the early morning hours are typical symptoms of this type of allergy. These reactions
are triggered by the proteins in the excrement of the dust mite.
Mites are virtually ever-present in a moist, warm micro-climate, as often predominates in beds.
They primarily feed on human skin scales and molds that can be found in every household.
Even with regular, thorough cleaning, dust and skin particles constantly accumulate.
What preventative measures can you take?
You should avoid any contact with dust mites if possible. Our breathing, machine-washable
Anti-Allergenic Underblanket helps you do this. This combination of specially coated under-
blanket and contour sheet is equipped with the following components:
1.1 ACTIGARD® finish (test no. 3395.06)
The surface with an ACTIGARD® finish prevents mites from multiplying and protects against
their allergens. In addition, ACTIGARD® also reduces the formation of mold and unpleasant
odors caused by bacteria and fungus.
