Advanced bedding designed to protect
where it matters most

Protection that supports comfort, dignity peace of mind


How SleepAngel protects elderly sleepers

SleepAngel bedding uses a sealed, breathable barrier rather than traditional stitching. This design helps prevent fluids and unwanted organisms from passing into the bedding core, while still allowing air to circulate for comfort.

This means:

  • A cleaner sleeping surface over time

  • Reduced build-up inside pillows and mattress protectors

  • No change to how the bedding feels or how your loved one sleeps

Protection works quietly in the background — without adding complexity.

A thoughtful way to care from near or far

 

Whether you live with your elderly relative or care from a distance, choosing SleepAngel is a practical and meaningful way to support their wellbeing. It’s a decision rooted in care, dignity, and long-term thinking — not temporary fixes.

As our loved ones grow older, sleep becomes even more important — not just for rest, but for overall wellbeing. Many elderly people spend more time in bed, have more sensitive skin, and may be more vulnerable to their surroundings. Creating a cleaner, more protective sleeping environment is one small but meaningful way to show you care.

Why the sleep environment matters more with age:

 

Traditional bedding is made using stitched seams and absorbent materials. Over time, this construction can allow fluids, allergens, and microorganisms to enter the bedding interior — where regular washing may not reach.

For elderly relatives, this matters because:

  • Skin can be more delicate and prone to irritation

  • The immune system may be less robust

  • Recovery from illness or minor infections can take longer

  • Comfort and uninterrupted sleep become increasingly valuable

SleepAngel is designed to address these concerns at the source.

Designed for everyday comfort

 

SleepAngel products are soft, breathable, and designed for normal home use. There are no treatments to reapply and no special routines to follow. Bedding can be used just like traditional bedding, while offering added reassurance night after night.

It’s protection that supports comfort — not something that reminds someone they are being “looked after.”

Visualising the SleepAngel difference
Not all bedding is created equal

This side-by-side demonstration shows a difference that’s normally invisible.

 

When traditional sewn bedding is compressed, air is forced out through thousands of tiny stitching holes — releasing whatever has built up inside the pillow directly into the sleeper’s breathing zone.

 

Independent testing carried out in major NHS hospitals has shown that many conventional pillows can become internally contaminated within weeks of use.SleepAngel is designed differently.

 

By eliminating stitching holes and directing airflow through a high-performance filter, particles are contained and cannot be released into the surrounding air. The system works both ways: air leaving the pillow is filtered, and air entering the pillow is filtered too — preventing contaminants from getting inside and stopping internal build-up over time.The result is a consistently cleaner sleep environment and added peace of mind.Because the air released from a pillow is the air you breathe while you sleep.

Frequent Concerned Relative Questions

Why is SleepAngel a good choice for elderly sleepers?

 

As we age, sleep becomes lighter and recovery more important. SleepAngel provides a clean, hygienic sleep environment by preventing allergens, bacteria, and moisture from building up inside the pillow—supporting better, more restful sleep.

Is SleepAngel suitable for people with breathing issues or allergies?

Yes. All airflow through SleepAngel is filtered, helping reduce exposure to dust mites, allergens, and airborne irritants that may affect breathing, especially during the night.

 

 

Isn't regular washing enough to keep bedding clean?

 

Regular washing is important, but traditional sewn bedding can absorb fluids and allow contaminants to pass into the filling through seams and stitching. Once inside, these contaminants are difficult to remove through normal laundering.

 

 

What makes SleepAngel different from standard bedding?

 

SleepAngel bedding is designed with a sealed, breathable barrier that prevents fluids, allergens, and microorganisms from passing into the bedding core — while still allowing air to flow for comfort.

This means the sleeping surface remains cleaner over time, even between washes.

Is SleepAngel suitable for people with sensitive skin?

 

Yes. SleepAngel products are designed for use in healthcare and home environments where skin sensitivity and comfort are important. The materials are soft, breathable, and free from added treatments or coatings that could irritate delicate skin.

Is SleepAngel bedding only for use in hospitals?

 

No. While SleepAngel technology is used in healthcare settings, the Care at Home Collection is designed specifically for use in the home — offering the same protective principles in a familiar, comfortable setting.

 

 

Do I still need to wash bedding regularly?

Yes. Regular washing of sheets and bedding is always important. SleepAngel doesn’t replace good sleep routines — it complements them by protecting the part of the pillow, mattress and duvet that washing can’t reach.

 

 

Can this help reduce worry for family members?

 

Many families find reassurance in knowing that the sleeping environment offers an added layer of protection. When you’re caring for someone vulnerable, removing uncertainty — even in small areas — can make a meaningful difference.

 

 

Is SleepAngel suitable for long-term use?

 

Yes. SleepAngel bedding is designed for long service life and repeated use. The protective barrier does not wash out or degrade through normal care, making it suitable for both short-term recovery and long-term support.

 

 

Does SleepAngel replace medical advice or treatment?

 

No. SleepAngel bedding is not a medical treatment. It is a supportive product designed to improve the sleeping environment — complementing medical care, not replacing it.

 

How easy is SleepAngel to care for?

Very easy. The pillow can be wiped clean, and the cover can be washed according to instructions. There is no need for frequent replacement due to internal contamination, unlike traditional pillows.

 

 

Does the pillow feel comfortable or too firm?

 

SleepAngel pillows are designed to be supportive yet comfortable. They adapt to the head and neck without collapsing over time, helping maintain proper alignment and reducing pressure points.

 

 

Can SleepAngel help reduce the risk of illness?

 

Traditional pillows can harbour bacteria and allergens over time. SleepAngel’s sealed design prevents internal contamination, helping reduce exposure to microorganisms—particularly important for older adults with more sensitive immune systems.

 

 

Is SleepAngel safe for use in care homes or hospitals?

 

Yes. SleepAngel is widely used in healthcare settings because it supports infection control and hygiene standards. It is ideal for care homes, rehabilitation centres, and home care environments.

 

Is this a good gift for an elderly parent or grandparent?

 

Yes. SleepAngel is a thoughtful, practical gift that shows care beyond the surface—providing nightly comfort, protection, and peace of mind rather than something short-lived.

 

 

Can SleepAngel be used if the person moves between home and care?

 

Absolutely. Many families choose SleepAngel because it can move with the person, ensuring consistent sleep quality whether at home, in hospital, or in a care facility.
