Underblankets

Underblankets are a type of mattress protector with the added comfort and softness and properties of wool pile or the therapeutic benefits of magnetic fills.

Wool Underblankets

The woollen pile insulates and helps to distribute your body weight evenly which reduces pressure points.  The more dense the pile, the more comfort you receive.  They are warm in winter and cool in summer.

When choosing a woollen under blanket you should consider the weight of fill, the number of layers of wool and the style.

• Fill: - The fill is generally measured by weight in GSM.  The weight refers to how much a 1 metre square section of fill weighs in GSM.
• Layers - Woollen Under blankets come in a single and double wool variety.    Double wool has two layers of wool.  The top layer of wool helps distribute your body weight evenly whilst the inner layer of wool insulates and adds comfort.
• Style - some under blankets are reversible.  Our reversible styles are quilted on the reverse side with a layer of wool quilted into the cotton Japara casing.  These are excellent for all year round comfort.  The wool pile is warm and insulating in the winter while in summer you can turn it over for a cooler cotton surface.  The cotton absorbs moisture and the wool helps dissipate it away from the body to keep you cool.  All of our underblankets come in fully-fitted styles with a knitted  fabric skirt to stretch over the mattress and fit snugly underneath and fit most mattress sizes.
