6-Sided Waterproof Mattress Encasement | NDIS Incontinence Cover

Safeguard your health and extend the life of your mattress with the Utopia Bedding Zippered Waterproof Mattress Encasement. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this 6-sided protector is specifically designed to support NDIS participants managing incontinence, severe allergies, or immunity vulnerabilities.

Unlike standard mattress protectors that only cover the top, this encasement fully encases the mattress in a secure, zippered barrier. Featuring a high-quality TPU backing, it renders the mattress completely impermeable to liquids, sweat, and allergens. The outer layer is crafted from soft, knitted polyester that stretches for a smooth fit, ensuring that while the mattress is protected, the user’s comfort and sleep quality remain uncompromised. It is an essential tool for maintaining a sanitary sleeping environment and reducing the physical burden of cleaning for carers.

3. How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Continence Management: Provides a 100% waterproof barrier on all six sides, preventing urine or fluids from penetrating the mattress core, which eliminates lingering odours and bacterial growth.

• Allergy & Respiratory Support: The zippered seal creates a physical barrier against dust mites, bed bugs, and pet dander, which are common triggers for participants with asthma or eczema.

• Infection Control: Supports a sterile environment by allowing the entire cover to be removed and machine washed, reducing the risk of skin infections or bedsores caused by unsanitary bedding.

• Asset Protection: Preserves the quality and longevity of the mattress (often a significant financial investment for participants), meeting the NDIS criteria for economic sustainability.

4. Key Features & Benefits

• 360-Degree Protection: Encapsulates the entire mattress with a secure zipper, ensuring it stays fully protected from spills, pests, and allergens from every angle.

• Impermeable TPU Backing: Features a laminated thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) layer that blocks all moisture while remaining breathable and quiet (no plastic crinkling noise).

• Soft Knitted Fabric: The top layer is made from stretchable knitted polyester, providing a soft tactile surface that minimizes friction and promotes skin integrity.

• Bed Bug Proof: The micro-zipper closure prevents bed bugs from entering or escaping the mattress, offering peace of mind for vulnerable participants.

• Machine Washable: Designed for easy maintenance, the cover can be laundered at home, supporting daily hygiene routines without specialized cleaning services.
