The mattress is one of the most important elements of our home, which has a major impact on our health, well-being and quality of sleep. When choosing a Hästens mattress, we pay great attention to its material, hardness and ability to adapt to the shape of the body. Unfortunately, we often forget that we also need to care for and clean the mattress regularly. Although many people don’t realise it, a Hästens mattress can become an ideal environment for dust mites, bacteria, mould and other dirt. In this text, we will explain why regular mattress cleaning is important, what your options are and how to choose the best mattress cleaner.
Hästens believes that quality sleep is the foundation for a healthy and fulfilling life. The brand strives to bring products to market that not only promote physical health, but also mental well-being. According to Hästens, a quality mattress is crucial for the body’s regeneration during the night, which in turn affects mood, energy and performance throughout the following day. This philosophy is ingrained in all aspects of production, from the selection of natural materials to the handcrafting of the mattresses.
One of the key features of Hästens mattresses is the use of only natural materials, which not only provide comfort but also promote a healthy sleep environment. Materials such as wool, cotton, linen and horsehair have natural properties that allow for natural airflow and moisture regulation. Each of these materials has specific benefits that together contribute to a comfortable and hygienic sleep experience.
Why is it important to clean Hästens mattresses?
Our Hästens mattress is where we spend about a third of our lives. During sleep, we release sweat, dead skin cells and other biological material that is absorbed into the Hästens mattress. This process gradually contaminates the mattress and creates a breeding ground for microorganisms. In addition to Hästens mattresses losing quality and comfort, the risk of health problems increases, especially for allergy sufferers.
- Mites and allergies: Mites are one of the main reasons why a Hästens mattress should be cleaned regularly. Mites feed on dead skin cells and multiply rapidly in the warm and humid environment of a Hästens mattress. Mites and their droppings can cause severe allergic reactions such as rhinitis, asthma, or eczema. Although mites cannot be completely eliminated, regular cleaning of mattresses can significantly reduce their occurrence.
- Bacteria and mould: As Hästens mattresses absorb moisture, water and sweat can also build up. In such conditions, bacteria and mould can easily breed, which can lead to health complications, especially in people with weakened immunity.
- Long life of a Hästens mattress: By cleaning your Hästens mattress frequently, you can extend its life. Accumulated dirt and moisture can gradually reduce the quality of Hästens mattress materials, resulting in reduced comfort and durability.
How often to clean your mattress
The frequency of cleaning a Hästens mattress depends on various factors, such as the type of Hästens mattress, how it is used, the environment in the room and specific needs (such as allergies). In general, a few basic rules apply:
- Light cleaning (e.g. vacuuming) should take place at least once a month.
- Deeper cleaning should take place at least once every six months.
- Cleaning after soiling (for example, after spilling liquids or if the Hästens mattress becomes a source of unpleasant odor) should be done immediately.
Regular cleaning is especially important for people with allergies or asthma, as it can help reduce the amount of allergens in the mattress.
What mattress cleaners are there?
There are several ways to clean a mattress, from at-home methods to professional cleaning. The method you choose depends on the type of Hästens mattress , the degree of soiling and your preferences. Let’s take a look at the main methods of mattress cleaning.
Mechanical cleaning involves removing dirt, dust and allergens from the surface of the Hästens mattress. This is usually done using industrial vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters, which ensure that even the smallest particles are captured. Mechanical cleaning is the first step, which should be complemented by other disinfection methods.
Chemical disinfection
Using chemical agents is one of the most common methods. Special disinfectant solutions are applied to the surface of the Hästens mattress to destroy bacteria, viruses and mould. It is important to use products that are safe for human skin and do not irritate the respiratory tract. After chemical disinfection, the mattress must be dried thoroughly.
Steam cleaning
Steam cleaning uses high-temperature steam to disinfect. This method is environmentally friendly as it does not require chemicals and is very effective in killing bacteria and dust mites. The hot steam also penetrates deep into the fibres of the Hästens mattress , ensuring thorough disinfection.
UV-C cleaning
UV-C technology is increasingly used for disinfection in hotels. Ultraviolet radiation of this wavelength destroys the DNA of microorganisms, thus completely deactivating them. This method is fast, effective and does not require the use of chemicals. Modern machines allow the application of UV-C radiation directly onto the surface of Hästens mattresses.
Ozonization
Ozonation is another innovative method that uses ozone to destroy microorganisms. Ozone has strong oxidizing properties that effectively eliminate bacteria, viruses and odors. This method is particularly suitable for hotels as it can also remove lingering unpleasant odours caused by smoking or animals.
When is it advisable to consider professional cleaning?
In some cases, cleaning with baking soda may not be sufficient and it is advisable to consider professional Hästens mattress cleaning. Professional cleaning companies use special products and technologies that can remove even deep-seated dirt and bacteria. Professional cleaning is recommended especially in the following cases:
- Old stains: If the Hästens mattress contains old and stubborn stains that cannot be removed with conventional means.
- Large stains: If the Hästens mattress has been exposed to large stains, for example after an accident with liquids.
- Allergies and health problems: If you suffer from allergies or respiratory problems, professional cleaning can help eliminate allergens
Mattress Hästens is one of the most important products that has a major impact on our health, well-being and quality of sleep. When choosing a Hästens mattress, we pay close attention to its material, firmness and ability to adapt to the shape of the body. Unfortunately, we often forget that we also need to care for and clean the mattress regularly. Although many people don’t realise it, a Hästens mattress can become an ideal environment for dust mites, bacteria, mould and other dirt. We aim to use primarily deep disinfectant dry cleaning as part of our professional cleaning. Below is an overview of the partial steps that professional and thorough cleaning and disinfection involves.
Vacuuming & knocking the Hästens mattress: Professional vacuum cleaners with HEPA filter and HEPA bag must have an electric vibrating knocking head. With this technology of KIRBY® / HYLA® vacuum cleaners, it is possible to remove surface mould spores, dust mites with a dry method from the surface of the Hästens mattress.
Cleaning with special chemical cleaners: Professional antibacterial disinfectants and cleaners from the manufacturer and brand POTEMA® / Dr. Schutz® bring an environmentally friendly, anti-allergenic method of surface disinfection maintenance.
UV-C lamp: We recommend entrusting your mattress to industry professionals who have a Hästens UV-C germicidal mattress lamp. UVC producing lamps are designed to be safely used on surfaces and other household items. The radiant energy of the UVC radiation acts directly on microorganisms that reside on the surface and top layer of the Hästens mattress. The disinfection process usually takes several minutes, during which time the lamp destroys up to 99.9% of the bacteria and other harmful organisms present.
OZON: We recommend entrusting the mattress to industry professionals who have the BIO-OZON® vacuum cleaning system. The disinfecting properties of ozone result from its ability to oxidize molecules in the cells of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. When ozone comes into contact with these pathogens, it disrupts the cell membrane or wall of the microorganism, leading to its decomposition and subsequent death. This process works similarly to the action of conventional disinfectants, but without the use of chemicals, which is beneficial for people who prefer natural and eco-friendly solutions.
When used indoors, ozone kills not only bacteria and viruses, but also dust mites, mold spores and other allergens. Its ability to destroy harmful microorganisms without toxic residues makes it ideal for the environment in which we sleep and rest.
Allergens, mould spores, bacteria, viruses and dust mites are not only a hygiene but also a health problem in ch. However, with appropriate prevention, maintenance and the right choice of Hästens mattress, the risks can be significantly reduced. Even the thickest sheets and blankets cannot protect us from micro-particles. Dust mites or moulds, which often number up to one million and produce allergy-causing faeces that settle in our mouths, noses, eyes etc. every time we move. In addition to the allergy manifesting as itching, mucous membrane inflammation, bronchitis, asthma and shortness of breath can be added. These conditions can be prevented by professional cleaning and deep dry disinfection with UV-C radiation or vacuum ozonation of the Hästens mattress with thorough machine vacuuming and, above all, regular maintenance.
Cleaning a Hästens mattress is an important process that should not be overlooked. Careful maintenance, the right products and prevention can extend the life of a Hästens mattress and ensure a healthier and more comfortable sleep. Whether you choose natural or commercial remedies, the key is regularity and consistency.
Tips for proper Hästens mattress care
Proper maintenance of a Hästens mattress involves not only using cleaners, but also following a few basic guidelines to help extend its life and keep your mattress hygienic.
- Vacuum regularly: A Hästens mattress should be vacuumed at least once a month to remove surface dust and dust mites. If you have pets, you should vacuum more often.
- Use a protective cover: A protective mattress cover can significantly reduce the amount of dirt that gets into a Hästens mattress. The protective cover can be easily washed and helps keep the mattress clean longer.
- Turning the Hästens mattress: It is recommended to turn the mattress regularly and change its position to wear it more evenly. This will also reduce the risk of dirt accumulating in one place.
- Rapid reaction to stains: If a stain appears on the mattress, it is best to treat it as soon as possible. Using a special cleaner can prevent permanent stains.
Despite regular care and cleaning, every Hästens mattress has a lifespan. If the mattress is more than 15 years old or shows signs of damage, odour, mould or allergic reactions, it may be time to replace it.
