1 in 5 children and 1 in 8 adults now suffer from asthma and other allergies. It is estimated that by 2015, about half of all Europeans will suffer from some type of allergy. So with millions of babies, children and adults suffering from asthma, eczema, hay fever and rhinitis, it is no wonder people all around the world are on the lookout for preventive measures to avoid the allergens that can trigger an attack. Reducing asthma and allergies is among the top priorities at present.
Keeping potential irritants at bay are becoming increasingly crucial. We spend one-third of our life in beds which, without proper protection, are almost always infected with dust-mites – the key allergy sensitizer. Thus beds and beddings contribute significantly to the increasing rise of allergy sufferers and now it is time to arm ourselves for a healthier and more protected sleep at night. Thanks to the revolutionary and intelligent Amicor Blanket.
Amicor Blankets use intelligent anti-microbial and anti-fungal Amicor Pure fibers and anti-allergenic Amicor Breathe fibers, which create an environment where allergens like dust-mites are unable to survive. Thus protecting and reducing the risk of sensitivity to allergens. Amicor fibers maintain a just-washed freshness in blankets, whether they are washed frequently or less often and are thus ideal as beddings. Research carried out at Cambridge Entomology Department has proved that prevention of fungi in beddings remove the food source of house dust mites. In turn, the mites reduce dramatically in number and the amount of allergen released into air is kept to an absolute minimum. Amicor is always blended with both natural and man-made fibers, and takes on the aesthetics of the major fiber in the blend. A relatively small percentage of around 20-30% is needed to create an effective anti-allergic blanket with prolonged freshness. Amicor blankets are light in weight, soft, cozy and are proven to be even less of a skin-irritant than 100% cotton.
Amicor has been a leader in bio-active textiles and has already established itself in the home-textile sector specifically for bed and bedding. Introduction of Amicor Blanket will further strengthen this line of Amicor antimicrobial beds and beddings to provide a “completely protected” sleeping environment and ensure a long term, healthy future ahead. While a duvet or pillow on their own will offer protection from allergies, a total healthy sleep system is only created when all bedding products are anti-allergenic.
Amicor launches Amicor anti-allergic and fresh Raschel Blankets for a healthier and more protected sleeping environment at home, hotels and even in hospitals. Hilaturas Miel (Himiesa), Spain shall supply Amicor yarn for Raschel Blankets all over the world.
