Description
Three-Layer Protection in a Single Fitted Sheet Format
The Velfont Anti-dust Vital Mattress Protector solves three distinct mattress hygiene problems simultaneously — dust mite colonisation, liquid penetration, and bacterial growth — in a single protector that fits the mattress exactly like a fitted sheet. It combines a 100% knitted cotton surface treated with Velfont’s proprietary Acarsan® Natural anti-dust mite formula with a Neotherm® waterproof breathable membrane that prevents any liquid from reaching the mattress below. Both technologies have been independently certified and clinically tested. This is the protector for those who need active, verified protection against dust mites — not just moisture management.
Acarsan® Natural — Clinically Certified Anti-Mite Treatment from Plant Extracts
The defining technology of the Vital protector is Acarsan® Natural — Velfont’s proprietary anti-dust mite treatment derived from plant extracts, applied to the 100% knitted cotton fabric surface.
Acarsan® Natural is not a simple repellent coating — it actively inhibits the development and proliferation of dust mites at the mattress surface. Its plant-based formulation has been independently verified through two separate certification channels:
TEC (Technique Environnement Consultants) — one of the EU’s reference laboratories specifically for dust mite research — has scientifically tested the Vital protector’s efficacy after repeated washing and confirmed that Acarsan® Natural retains its anti-mite properties through successive wash cycles. This is a critical distinction: many anti-mite treatments lose their efficacy after a few washes. Acarsan® Natural maintains its effectiveness.
SEAIC (Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology) certifies that Velfont products with Acarsan® Natural treatment reduce exposure to dust mites by limiting their development — and confirms that the treatment is non-irritating to the skin. The full Velfont Acarsan® Natural range is additionally certified by Allergy UK, the prestigious British allergy foundation.
The 100% knitted cotton fabric provides a naturally soft, breathable, and absorbent contact surface — comfortable to sleep on while the Acarsan® treatment works below the surface.
Neotherm® Membrane — Full Waterproofing With Breathability
The Vital’s second technology layer is the Neotherm® polyurethane membrane — Velfont’s proprietary waterproof breathable membrane laminated to the reverse of the cotton fabric.
The Neotherm® membrane provides total waterproof protection — 100% resistance to liquid penetration, preventing perspiration, spills, and nocturnal accidents from reaching the mattress surface below. An unprotected mattress can double its initial weight after 10 years from accumulated moisture, dust, skin cells, and mite colony growth — the Neotherm® membrane is a direct barrier against the primary mechanism of this degradation.
Crucially, the Neotherm® membrane is breathable despite being fully waterproof. Unlike basic impermeable PVC membranes that trap heat and create an uncomfortable sweating effect, the Neotherm® polyurethane structure allows air vapour to pass through while blocking liquid water. This means perspiration vapour escapes through the protector during sleep rather than accumulating at the surface — maintaining a comfortable, dry sleeping environment throughout the night.
A specific engineering detail worth noting: the sides of the protector are also waterproof — not just the top surface. This prevents liquid from penetrating through the side panels, which basic protectors often leave unprotected.

FAQ:
Q: What is Acarsan® Natural and how does it differ from standard anti-mite treatments?
Acarsan® Natural is Velfont’s proprietary anti-dust mite treatment derived from plant extracts — and its key distinction from many anti-mite treatments is its independently verified wash-resistant efficacy.
Standard anti-mite treatments applied to textiles often use chemical coatings that sit on the fabric surface. These provide anti-mite properties initially but degrade progressively with each wash — losing effectiveness after 5 to 10 wash cycles as the coating wears off. This creates a protector that performs well when new but loses its primary function over time.
Acarsan® Natural has been specifically tested by TEC — Technique Environnement Consultants, one of the EU’s reference laboratories for dust mite research — after repeated washing cycles, confirming that its efficacy is retained through successive washes. The SEAIC (Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology) additionally certifies that Velfont products with Acarsan® Natural limit dust mite development and are non-irritating to the skin.
The plant-based formulation is also relevant for those with chemical sensitivities — Acarsan® Natural provides clinically certified anti-mite protection without synthetic chemical active ingredients.

Q: How does the Neotherm® membrane provide waterproofing without making the protector uncomfortable to sleep on?
The discomfort associated with waterproof mattress protectors — the crinkling sound, the sweating sensation, the hot sleeping surface — comes specifically from impermeable membranes that block both liquid water and water vapour. The classic example is a PVC or basic polyethylene membrane that creates a completely sealed barrier.
The Neotherm® polyurethane membrane works differently: its molecular structure allows water vapour molecules — which are extremely small — to pass through, while blocking liquid water droplets — which are significantly larger. This size-selective permeability is the same principle used in high-performance outdoor waterproof fabrics.
In practical sleeping terms: perspiration leaves the skin as vapour, passes through the cotton fabric, passes through the Neotherm® membrane as vapour, and escapes into the air — maintaining a comfortable, dry sleeping surface. If a liquid spill occurs, the droplets are too large to pass through the membrane and are blocked completely. The result is a protector that is simultaneously fully waterproof and genuinely breathable — with no crinkle sound, no heat trapping, and no sweating effect.
Q: Is the Velfont Vital suitable for allergy sufferers — what specifically does it protect against?
Yes — the Velfont Vital is specifically designed and clinically certified for allergy sufferers, with three distinct mechanisms that address the primary sources of bedroom allergens.
First, dust mite inhibition through Acarsan® Natural: the treatment limits dust mite development at the mattress surface — reducing the primary allergen source for the estimated 10-15% of the population with dust mite allergy. The SEAIC certification and Allergy UK certification both confirm this efficacy.
Second, the Neotherm® membrane as a physical barrier: even without chemical treatment, a waterproof membrane that blocks all liquids also physically prevents dust mites from passing from the mattress to the sleeping surface and vice versa — a mechanical barrier that complements the chemical inhibition.
Third, bacteria and germ protection: the combination of the cotton surface’s absorbency and the membrane’s liquid barrier prevents the accumulation of the warm, moist, organic-matter-rich environment that bacteria and germs require to proliferate.
For those with confirmed dust mite allergy, combining the Vital mattress protector with a matching pillow protector provides the most complete protection across all sleeping surface contact points. Speak to our sleep experts at 596 14 9977 for advice on the full allergy protection setup.

Q: The Velfont Vital costs more than standard mattress protectors — what justifies the price?
The price reflects three specific distinctions from a standard waterproof mattress protector.
First, the Acarsan® Natural treatment with independently verified wash-resistant efficacy: most standard anti-mite protectors at lower price points use treatments whose efficacy after washing has not been independently verified by a specialist laboratory. TEC certification — from an EU reference laboratory for dust mite research — and SEAIC and Allergy UK certifications represent a quality assurance standard that generic protectors do not meet.
Second, the Neotherm® breathable waterproof membrane: a polyurethane membrane engineered for genuine vapour permeability alongside full liquid impermeability — and applied to both the top and sides of the protector — is a more expensive membrane specification than the basic impermeable membranes used in budget waterproof protectors.
Third, the combination of both technologies in a single product: independently, certified anti-mite treatment and breathable waterproof protection each represent a premium over a basic protector. The Vital delivers both simultaneously in a 100% natural cotton surface that is comfortable to sleep on — without compromising either function for the other.
For those managing dust mite allergy or protecting a premium mattress investment from both biological degradation and liquid damage, the Vital provides a justified and clinically backed solution.
