SleepAngel
Cross-Contamination Barrier for Soft Surfaces

The COVID-19 pandemic has put a burden on healthcare systems’ processes, especially the prevention of healthcare associated infections (HAIs). A commonly overlooked aspect of HAI prevention is the soft surface, which serves as a link in a chain of cross-infection between patients. Pillows, mattresses, and outside soft surfaces are often unnoticed sources of contaminants for not just allergies and bed bugs but also superbugs, viruses, mold, and infections. These could get into standard bedding through stitching holes and zips and multiply due to the damp and humid conditions. They also serve as spreaders since each time a person’s head is placed on the pillow, roughly two litres of humid air tainted with microorganisms in droplet suspension is aerosolized into the surroundings. As a result, traditional bedding serves as a warehouse of pathogens, simultaneously exposing each new bedding user to the germs past users may have left behind. Simply changing the covers is insufficient, in many cases, even cleaning the bedding is inadequate in the prevention of HAI. With a proprietary soft surface technology designed to prevent infection transfer, SleepAngel can ensure the safety of hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare institutions.

SleepAngel is the first barrier bedding line in the world to combine total barrier protection with airflow to provide users with maximum safety and comfort. SleepAngel’s solutions feature PneumaPure filler barrier bedding, which is CE-marked and resistant to viruses, bacteria, bedbugs, and dust mites, as well as humidity and body fluids. The medical barrier bedding range includes the highest quality medical pillows, duvets, mattresses and wheelchair cushions. The bedding range is dignified, uncontaminated, and provides comfortable conditions for patients and caregivers, from the youngest patients in the NICU to caregiving services in elderly homes.

The soft surface barrier products from SleepAngel are a clinically established barrier against pathogens, allergies, germs, liquids, and mold

The purpose of SleepAngel PneumaPure filtered barrier bedding is to reduce HAIs in the healthcare industry while also improving environmental safety for patients and healthcare professionals. The soft surface barrier products from SleepAngel are a clinically established barrier against pathogens, allergies, germs, liquids, and mold. The products are not only hermetically sealed against pathogens but are also highly ventilated and pleasant because of patent-protected innovations in fabric and filter technology as well as production methods employed by the company. From the ground up, SleepAngel employs the highest-quality materials to provide the greatest possible atmosphere for the user.

Adding to the competencies of SleepAngel, the capacity of the SleepAngel pillow and mattress to function as an effective barrier to coronavirus was demonstrated and verified by an independent laboratory Airmid healthgroup Ltd. Although the surface of the pillow, just like other surfaces in the patient’s vicinity, should be disinfected in line with hospital cleaning procedures, the barrier bedding showed significant prevention of HAI. More recently, PneumaPure filters proved to prevent the spread of coronavirus 229E (A strain of nCoV-19). In a nutshell, this filter can protect the interiors of pillows and mattresses from contamination, removing the fomite risk due to contaminated soft surface interiors.

Being a worldwide supplier of bedding products, the SleepAngel branded product line has grown beyond hospitals and nursing homes to also include hotels and homes of individuals who desire a safe and healthy immediate environment. While SleepAngel is well-known in the medical sector, the company is now venturing into the world of elite sports. The PneumaPure filtered bedding relieves allergies and asthma and is currently being used by professional athletes to decrease risks during recovery. Not just athletes, the filtered bedding is ideal for anybody who wants to rest and recuperate in a clean atmosphere.
