RX Series mattress cover

Modern mattress hygiene covers developed for our range of Melissa mattresses

For our mattresses in the Melissa range, there is a number of different, model-specific hygiene covers to choose from, in the RX series. There are four different models with a zip, and three of them are also available with welded seams.

Prevents liquid ingress

Our RX hygiene covers are liquid-tight to prevent urine, blood and other fluids from penetrating through to the mattress core. At the same time, the hygiene covers are vapour-permeable to reduce the risk of skin maceration.

Adapted for healthcare hygiene requirements

All models have a drip-proof zip for improved hygiene. The covers are made from noiceless, 2-way stretch polyurethane fabric with a zip on three or four sides (RXI-5) for easy removal and re-fitting during washing. They are wipeable and can withstand surface disinfection and washing at 95°C.

Models and their properties:
