Why You Need A Pillow Protector

Pillow protectors are, as their name suggests, a way to protect your pillow from stains, spills and sweat, which will lengthen the lifespan of your pillow by allowing it to remain more hygienic and plump for longer. As we sleep, we all shed minute skin particles, sweat and other body fluids which seep through the bed linen into our pillowcases and mattresses, which forms a perfect breeding ground for tiny creatures such as bacteria, dust mites and other organisms. Although they are not in any way dangerous, they may cause skin allergies, breathing difficulties, sinus trouble and worsen the effects of asthma. Using pillow protectors (and mattress protectors) will form a protective barrier that will benefit you, as well as your bedding!

Pillow Protector FAQs

What is the best pillow protector for me?

Most people are happy with stain-resistant pillowcases, but if you prefer a waterproof pillow protector to completely shield your pillow from spills, these are also a great choice.

Some waterproof pillow protectors may make you feel hot when sleeping, as the waterproof barrier also restricts air flow, so in hot climates these may be uncomfortable. If you are prone to suffering from allergies, check out the special anti-allergy range of bedding protectors at Spotlight. Look for well-known brands such as Brampton House, Tontine and Jaspa to ensure you are getting the best pillow protector possible.

How do I care for my pillow protectors?

Pillow protectors should be laundered on a regular basis. Most are machine washable and can be tumble dried, but always refer to packaging or labels for specific instructions. Once dry, they can go straight back onto the pillow without the need for ironing. Some anti-allergy or anti-bacterial pillow protectors may have been treated with specialist materials and can have different laundry instructions, so make sure to check them carefully!

How does a pillow protector differ from a pillowcase?

Both serve a similar function but there are a few differences between the two. A pillow protector will have a zip that completely encases the pillow, creating a full physical barrier. They are made from durable materials designed to protect your pillow. Pillowcases are open-ended and made from materials designed to help you sleep comfortably, and are also more decorative. Both can be used on their own, but recommend a pillow protector underneath a pillowcase for the best combination of protection, comfort and style!
