The Allerzip mattress encasement, fully encased waterproof mattress protector is the ultimate allergy protection. Seals your whole mattress inside a zippered, waterproof, bed bug, dust mite & allergen-proof encasement, so it stays clean, dry and healthy for years.

The Core Technology Explained

Most waterproof protectors make you choose between protection and comfort. The Allerzip® doesn’t.

Miracle Layer® is the waterproof membrane. It blocks liquids completely, so spills, sweat and accidents stay out of your mattress. It’s also vapour porous, so body heat and humidity pass through rather than building up, and it’s silent when you roll over. No crinkle, no plastic feel.

BugLock® is what makes the Allerzip® a true encasement. A dust-proof flap covers the zip, and a tamper-proof SecureSeal® locks it closed. Together they make the mattress bed bug entry and escape proof, and stop allergens becoming airborne.

Health, Hygiene & Allergy Defence

Your mattress harbours dust mites, mould spores, bacteria and years of perspiration. Sealing it in on all six sides takes it out of the equation.

• Dust mite barrier: allergens can’t escape the mattress into the air you breathe, a major benefit for asthma and hay fever sufferers.
• Sensitive Choice®: Protect-A-Bed® works with the National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice program, identifying products that may help ease asthma and allergy triggers.
• Eczema-friendly: a smooth surface fabric, OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 tested and Eczema Association endorsed.
•  National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice®
• Perspiration barrier: keeps sweat, body salts and odours out of the mattress, which is handy through an Aussie summer.
• Incontinence and bedwetting: Protect-A-Bed® waterproof encasements are listed with the ARTG as Class 1 medical devices.
• For Total bedding protection: we recommend fitting doona & pillow protectors.

How to choose your size protector: Measure the full depth of your mattress from base to top, including any pillow-top. If it’s on the deeper side, choose Extra Depth so the zip closes without strain. Remove any mattress topper before measuring, and place it over the encasement afterwards.

Care & Maintenance Instructions

• Wash before first use.
• Wash at least monthly, or more often if it isn’t covered by a fitted protector. Build-up of sweat and skin cells can degrade the Miracle Layer®.
• Hot wash at 60°C with linen or towels. This destroys dust mites and bacteria.
• Tumble dry warm (max 60°C) or line dry. Dry thoroughly before reuse or storage.
• Never bleach, iron, dry clean or use solvents. Not following the care instructions may void your warranty.
• Safe to use with an electric blanket. Layer the protector over the blanket and check the blanket maker’s instructions first.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this protector hot or noisy to sleep on?

No. The Miracle Layer® is vapour porous, so body heat and humidity pass through instead of being trapped, and it’s whisper quiet when you move. It doesn’t have the crinkle or plastic feel of cheaper waterproof covers.

Does this protect against bed bugs and dust mites?

Yes. The zippered 6-sided design, BugLock® dust-proof flap and tamper-proof SecureSeal® make the mattress dust mite proof and bed bug entry and escape proof. A bed bug encasement helps contain an infestation but isn’t a treatment on its own, so for bed bugs also call a licensed pest controller.

How does this help with asthma or eczema?

Dust mite allergens are a common trigger for asthma, eczema and hay fever. By sealing the mattress, the Allerzip mattress encasement, stops those allergens becoming airborne, and it’s hot washable at 60°C. It works with the National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice program and is Eczema Association endorsed. It supports a lower-allergen bed but isn’t a substitute for medical advice.

What happens if liquids spill on the bed?

They stay on the surface. The 100% waterproof Miracle Layer® blocks spills, sweat and accidents from reaching the mattress, so you wipe the protector or pop it in the wash. Your mattress stays clean, dry and stain-free.

Final Verdict

For households managing asthma, diagnosed dust mite allergy, or a bed bug situation, a six-sided AllerZip® mattress and pillow encasement is the more appropriate choice over a standard fitted protector — the sealed, zip-based design is what actually creates a barrier against allergens and pests, rather than simply covering the top surface. For general everyday protection against spills and stains without a specific allergy or pest concern, a standard waterproof protector remains a practical, lower-cost option. Choosing genuine, Sensitive Choice®-recognised Protect-A-Bed® products, fulfilled through Cover & Protect’s authorised Australian distribution, ensures you’re getting independently recognised barrier performance rather than an untested generic cover.
