Mattress toppers(tatami) 

Key features of our mattress toppers

• • Comfort and support: Provides a soft, plush surface that can make a firm mattress more comfortable. Hollowfibre offers a springier, more supportive feel, while microfiber mimics the softness of down.
  • Hypoallergenic: Most fiber toppers are made from synthetic materials, making them a good option for those with allergies.
  • Breathable: The soft, lightweight fibers are breathable, which helps improve airflow and can make sleep cooler compared to some other materials.
  • Easy to clean: Many are machine washable, making them easy to maintain.

• Secure fit: Often feature elastic straps or a skirt to keep them from shifting on the mattress.

• Variety of sizes: Available in all standard bed sizes to fit different mattresses.

• Easy to store: They are typically foldable and easy to store when not in use. 

• Quilting: Look for a quilted design to keep the fiber filling evenly distributed and prevent clumping over time.
• GSM (Grams per Square Meter): A higher GSM rating indicates a denser, fluffier topper.
• Down vs. Down Alternative: Fiberfill toppers are a popular “down alternative” that offers a similar luxurious feel without the feathers, notes
• Durability: The lifespan can vary based on quality, but they are generally a good way to extend the life of a mattress. 

• Microfiber: This material is made of very fine fibers, which gives it a soft and silky feel, similar to down. It creates a plush, cloud-like sleeping surface.
• Hollow fiber: This type of fill has a springy feel and greater density than microfiber, creating a puffier, more supportive topper. Like microfiber, it is affordable and easy to care for.
• “Snow down alternative”: This type of fill provides a lofty, plush feel that mimics the comfort of down without using feathers.

• Breathability: The fiber filling promotes airflow, which helps regulate temperature and wick away moisture to keep you cool and dry.
• Cooling features: Some fiber mattress toppers (tatami) have a cover made of a bamboo-blend or cotton fabric that enhances breathability and contributes to temperature control. 

• Machine washable: Many fiber mattress toppers  are machine washable, making them easy to clean and maintain a fresh, hygienic sleeping environment.
• Hypoallergenic: Fiberfill is a suitable option for those with allergies to down feathers or other materials, as it is generally hypoallergenic.
• Can clump over time: While fiber tatamis are known for their softness, they can compress or clump with regular use and may require regular fluffing to maintain their loft. Some mattress toppers (tatami) address this with box-stitch quilting to keep the filling evenly distributed. 

• Deep pockets or elastic straps: Many fiber mattress toppers (tatami) have deep pockets or elasticated corner straps to wrap securely around the mattress, preventing it from shifting during the night.
• Available in multiple sizes: They are available in a range of sizes to fit most beds, from twin to king.

• Shake and fluff regularly: To keep the filling evenly distributed and prevent clumping, shake out your topper every week when you change your bedsheets. Some fiber fillings, like the “snow down alternative,” are prone to clumping over time, so regular fluffing is essential.
• Rotate weekly: To ensure even wear and tear, rotate your topper weekly, so different parts are compressed.
• Use a mattress protector: A washable protector over the topper will shield it from spills, sweat, dust, and stains, extending its lifespan and making regular cleaning easier. 

• Spot clean minor stains: For small spills, gently blot the area with a cloth and a mild, non-bleach detergent and water solution. Do not scrub, as this can damage the fibers. Always let the area air dry completely before putting the topper back on the bed.
• Wash in a large machine: Many fiber toppers are machine washable. Use a large, front-loading machine on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid using top-loading machines with agitators, which can tear or damage the topper.
• Use tennis balls in the dryer: If the manufacturer allows machine drying, use a low-heat setting and add a few tennis balls to help fluff the filling and prevent clumping as it dries.
• Dry thoroughly: Ensure the topper is completely dry before putting it back on the bed. Lingering dampness can lead to mold and mildew. You can also air dry it in a well-ventilated space, flipping it occasionally for even drying. 

• Deodorize with baking soda: Sprinkle baking soda over the entire surface to absorb odors and moisture. Let it sit for at least eight hours before vacuuming it up with an upholstery attachment.
• Air out: On a breezy, sunny day, you can air out your topper outside for a few hours to kill bacteria and refresh the fibers.
• Store in a breathable bag: When not in use, store your topper in a breathable bag in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture build-up and permanent yellowing
