Anti-allergy pillows are treated to make the pillow inhospitable to dust mites. Others have a tightly woven case that doesn\u2019t allow dust mites and other allergens through.<\/p>\n
Hypoallergenic pillows <\/strong>make use of natural materials that are naturally hypoallergenic. Examples include natural latex, wool, silk and down.<\/p>\n The filling should be hypoallergenic or anti-allergy.<\/p>\n Look for pillows with a natural filling like wool or latex. These are naturally resistant to dust mites.<\/p>\n Wool for instance, is highly breathable. It absorbs moisture from your body and dissipates it into the air. This leaves the wool too dry for dust mites to survive.<\/p>\n If you are looking for a fibrefill pillow, make sure the fibre has anti-allergy treatment and a tightly woven casing.<\/p>\n Standard fibrefill\/down-alternative pillows can actually harbour more dust mites than natural down pillows. So it\u2019s important that you get one that has been designed specifically to keep away allergens.<\/p>\n The pillow cover should also be hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites and dust.<\/p>\n Look for cotton cover with a tight weave and a high thread count that blocks most allergens from passing through.<\/p>\n One advantage of cotton is that it\u2019s very breathable and easily absorbs moisture. It feels cool against your skin.<\/p>\n Obviously, the cover should be removable and safe to wash by hand or in a washing machine.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t just consider the anti-allergy properties of the pillow. It must also be comfortable and supportive or else all that anti-allergy protection will be for nothing.<\/p>\n There are three factors to consider when it comes to a pillow\u2019s comfort.<\/p>\n If you suffer from dust mite allergy, get a pillow that you can wash.<\/p>\n Regularly washing the pillow with hot water greatly helps get rid of dust mites.<\/p>\n Most anti-allergy fibrefill pillows are safe to clean in a washing machine.<\/p>\n If the pillow is not washable, make sure that the cover is at least removable and washable.<\/p>\n These pillows use two techniques to keep away dust mites and other allergens.<\/p>\n One, the hollow fibre filling has anti-allergy treatment that discourages dust mites from settling inside the pillow. The fibre also protects against bacteria and mould.<\/p>\n Two, the pillows have a high-thread count (240 thread count) cotton cover that keeps dust and dust mites out.<\/p>\n In terms of comfort, the HALL-MARK pillows don\u2019t disappoint.<\/p>\n The hollow fibre filling is soft and flush but still feels supportive. It hugs your head and neck while also ensuring proper alignment with your spine.<\/p>\n Unlike most fibrefill pillows, the HALL-MARK pillows spring back in shape as soon as you lift your head. So you don\u2019t need to plump the pillow every time you go to bed.<\/p>\n The cotton cover ensures you don\u2019t get hot or stuffy at night.<\/p>\n It\u2019s easy to keep the pillow clean.<\/p>\n You can remove the cover and wash it. You can also machine wash the entire pillow at 40C.<\/p>\n The set consists of two pillows, each measuring 74 by 48cm.<\/p>\n This is another good option if you love the soft plush feel of microfiber pillows.<\/p>\n The anti-allergy filling reduces the amount of dust and dust mites in the pillow. The high thread count cotton cover also helps keep away allergens.<\/p>\n These are medium-loft pillows. They are ideal for side, back and combo sleepers. Some stomach sleepers will also find them comfortable enough.<\/p>\n The cotton cover keeps your face cool and sweat-free, no matter the season. You can remove it for washing.<\/p>\n The entire pillow is also machine washable, which helps keep allergen levels low. Just make sure you follow the cleaning instructions included with the pillows.<\/p>\n Get this pack if you are looking for budget hypoallergenic pillows. It\u2019s a set of two pillows.<\/p>\n The pillows are filled with a special hypoallergenic microfiber blend that reduces allergic reactions. He high thread count cover block dust mites, dust, pollen and other allergens from settling inside the pillow.<\/p>\n As for comfort, the Utopia pillows are great for those who love the plush soft feel of microfiber pillows. The fibre filling hugs your neck and head but is still firm enough to keep your head elevated at just the right height.<\/p>\n To fully plump up the pillows, the manufacturer recommends leaving the pillows for 48-72 hours to allow them to expand.<\/p>\n You can also try leaving them for a few hours in the hot sun or put them in the dryer with two tennis balls. Tumble dry on low for an hour. The tennis balls will hit the pillows and fluff them up.<\/p>\n Every few weeks, fluff the pillows again to keep them from going flat.<\/p>\n The pillows have a medium-loft. They are ideal for back and side sleepers.<\/p>\n Though they are not as cool as latex pillows, the cotton cover helps a bit. But the pillow may feel stuffy on warm nights.<\/p>\n For cleaning, the manufacturer recommends machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent.<\/p>\n Even better, hand wash the pillows to avoid any deterioration.<\/p>\n You can dry them in the dryer but air-drying is best. Make sure they are completely dry to prevent mould.<\/p>\n Each pillow measures 45 by 74cm.<\/p>\n MASVIS compares their hypoallergenic pillow to plush hotel pillows. The polyester filling certainly has the same soft and fluffy feel of microfiber hotel pillows.<\/p>\n It feels really comfortable and provides great support for your head and neck.<\/p>\n The polyester filling and cotton cover are both hypoallergenic. If your feather or down pillow has been worsening your asthma or causing allergy flare-ups, try the MASVIS pillow.<\/p>\n It is resistant to dust mites, dust, mould and mildew.<\/p>\n In terms of feel, the MASVIS pillow is medium firm.

The cotton cover helps dissipate some of the heat and sweat.<\/p>\n You can choose a single or double pack. The double pack has the best value.<\/p>\n Each pillow measures 74 by 48cm.<\/p>\nWhat to Consider When Buying an Anti-allergy Pillow<\/h2>\n
