Genuine Sheepskin Underlay/Bed Pad
Luxurious New Zealand made sheepskin underlay/mattress topper pad with cotton backing and all wool filling.
Unlike wool underlays this is made from genuine sheepskins. Each sheepskin bed pad consists of pieces from a number of shorn medical sheepskins which are carefully sewn together. For added comfort and luxury they are backed with white cotton fabric and lightly padded with a 250gsm wool filling.
Rectangle in shape, they are designed to cover the whole bed and have elastic straps to hold them in place.
The ready acceptance of sheepskin medical underlays and accessories by Hospitals and Institutions throughout the world is testimony to their wonderful natural healing qualities.
Medical bed pelts help prevent discomfort caused by pressure points or bed sores that occur during long periods of immobility.
A strong tannage ensures that wool fibres remain firmly bound to the leather backing, preventing the shedding and fiber collapse often found in woven alternatives, and ensuring years of restful sleep.
Wool fibres are naturally soft, springy and resilient. Not all sheepskins exhibit the same degree of resilience and density. However those used for our medical bed underlays have been carefully selected by Classic Sheepskins' experienced staff for this specific purpose.
The springiness of the wool pile distributes pressure evenly over the body naturally eliminating pressure points which could cause restlessness. It also allows air circulation thus dramatically reducing the build up of moisture resulting in coolness in summer and warmth in winter.
As wool is capable of holding up to a third of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet to the touch, perspiration is readily absorbed and dissipated by natural evaporation.
Place the underlay directly on the mattress with or without a sheet over it. Ideal for invalids, convalescents, sufferers of backache or arthritic pain.
Classic Sheepskins medical bed underlays are made to WoolMark standards and specifications. They are fully machine washable using a suitable enzyme-free wool wash such as our Woolskin Wool Wash/Sheepskin Shampoo.
We have just started adding customer feedback regarding these new medical sheepskin bed pads: "Just a quick note to let you know that my order arrived safely with me this morning. As usual, the goods are of extremely good quality. I am absolutely delighted with the underlay. I am now 76 years of age and have some trouble with my right hip. I got a really good night's sleep after fitting the underlay. Marvellous ! Thank you once again for the great quality, service and delivery. Best wishes to all at Kiwi Sheepskins."
