If you suffer from allergies, you know that sleeping in anti-dust mite bedding has always meant compromising on comfort. Conventional anti-dust mite materials are heavy and lack breathability. That’s now changing thanks to an invention by the Czech nanotechnology company nanoSPACE. Read on for our full nanoSPACE review of their allergy bedding range.
nanoSPACE Review: 100% Effective and Breathable
If you’ve ever used allergy barrier covers in the past, you’ll know that they often feel more like a rustling sheet of plastic than a comfortable fabric. Standard anti-dust mite materials crinkle with every movement and make you sweat. Here’s the good news: the covers from Czech company nanoSPACE are nothing like that.
Their bedding with nanofibre fabric is unmatched by any competing material when it comes to allergen capture efficiency, and they were the first in the world to create bed linen and fitted sheets for allergy sufferers. But development didn’t stop there. In recent years, they set out to combine their flawless technology with maximum comfort in pillows and duvets as well.
They succeeded — and now, instead of just barrier covers, you can buy duvets and pillows with built-in protection. The only cover you still need is the one on your mattress.
How nanoSPACE Products Work
The secret behind these products is the nanofibre fabric. It acts as an impenetrable shield against dust mites, allergens, viruses and bacteria lurking in your mattress. To put things in perspective, a single grain of sand is roughly a million times larger than 80 nm.
A dust mite measures around 420,000 nm, its allergen is about 1,000 nm, bacteria range from 100 to 10,000 nm, a virus is around 100 nm, and a scabies mite is 300,000 nm. It’s like trying to push a football through the eye of a needle — it simply can’t get through.
Air molecules, however, are far smaller. That’s why the products stay breathable while guaranteeing 100% capture of dust mites and allergens.

What Products nanoSPACE Offers
Thanks to their unique material, which holds STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification, nanoSPACE doesn’t have to limit itself to barrier covers. The exceptional breathability of the nanofibre fabric means it can also be used to manufacture pillows and duvets.
Their range also includes bed linen for allergy sufferers and fitted sheets for allergy sufferers, made from a material that combines premium cotton sateen with a nanofibre membrane.

nanoSPACE Review: How to Choose the Right Products for Allergy Sufferers
Not sure which bedding to pick? We personally went with the standard all-year set, which effectively protects the entire bed from unwanted dust mites. For allergy sufferers with severe symptoms such as asthma or eczema, we also recommend bed linen made from Nanocotton. nanoSPACE offers three types of allergy bedding:
All products contain a nanofibre membrane and work on the same principle, though they differ in comfort level and price. You must always protect the pillow, duvet and mattress — otherwise it won’t be effective!
Most Affordable Option: Barrier Covers for Allergy Sufferers
The most budget-friendly choice is barrier covers for pillows, duvets and mattresses. You simply slip the cover over your pillow, duvet or mattress, preventing dust mites from accumulating and multiplying in your bedding. This option is less comfortable, however — especially when it comes to duvet covers.
You still need to put bed linen over the barrier covers, which can cause the layers to shift uncomfortably during the night. This option is also not recommended for people who tend to sweat more.
Tip: You can save money on covers by purchasing them in a set.

Best Middle Ground: Duvets and Pillows with Nanofibre Membrane
The most popular choice is a pillow and duvet with a built-in nanofibre membrane, paired with either a mattress barrier cover or a Nanocotton fitted sheet for allergy sufferers. This option also works well for those who sweat more, since you simply put your regular bed linen directly over the pillow and duvet. You can also opt for a thin summer duvet with a nanofibre membrane.

Option for Asthma and Eczema Sufferers: Nanocotton Bed Linen
For people with asthma or atopic eczema, the ideal choice is Nanocotton bed linen. It’s made from cotton sateen with nanofibre fabric inside, which prevents dust mites from accumulating and multiplying. Cotton sateen is a durable fabric with a lustrous surface whose vibrant colours stay true even after many washes. On top of that, nanoSPACE offers a version made from undyed, chemically untreated organic cotton — ideal for those who suffer from skin rashes.
Nanocotton bed linen comes in a natural shade, and now also in blue.
