💨 Breathable TENCEL™ Cover
As we designed the Helix Kids mattress, we knew there would be a few priorities that might be a bit different than what we have in our standard Helix lineup. Our focus was on providing a safe, comfortable, and hypoallergenic mattress that can stand up to the daily wear and tear of young children year after year.
Our hypoallergenic TENCEL™ fabric was the perfect answer for each of those priorities.
TENCEL™ fibers are manufactured by extracting natural materials from raw wood and provide the moisture wicking and breathability properties that few other fabrics can. In the Helix Kids Mattress, our TENCEL™ fabric is designed to absorb moisture and release it from the external cover of the mattress without the addition of any synthetic materials.
Used together with our revolutionary water-repellent finish and a hygienic microbe shield, the Helix Kids mattress is designed for maximum protection against debris and moisture buildup without using any dangerous chemicals.
🔍 Reduced Bacteria Formation
But our focus on maximizing breathability and eliminating moisture isn’t just for a more comfortable sleeping experience. Our goal is to reduce the threat of bacteria growth by increasing airflow and preventing any buildup of moisture film.
Along with the environmentally-friendly antimicrobial shield technology in the mattress cover of the Helix Kids Mattress, the TENCEL™ fabric promotes a bacteria-free environment, allowing your child to sleep in complete comfort and you to rest with complete confidence.
🦺 Safety First
And don’t forget: we’re focused on giving your child a safe and comfortable sleeping experience. That’s why we rely on our hypoallergenic TENCEL™ fabric, which creates little to no static charge. This reduces static cling and helps keep dust and other allergens off of your child’s mattress and away from their sleep environment.
But besides resisting allergens that cause irritation or allergic reactions, we wanted to make sure that the Helix Kids Mattress (just like all of our Helix mattresses) was certified safe and was made without any toxic chemicals. In addition to the CertiPUR certifications for all of our foams, the Helix Kids Mattress also underwent lead and phthalate testing, so you and your child can both rest easy, knowing this mattress is made with the materials from start to finish.
