Section 1: The Dirty Truth About "Washable" Toppers
1.1 Why 89% of "Machine-Washable" Claims Fail
Greenwashing Alert: Most brands use weak stitching (6–8 stitches/inch) that unravels in wash
Material Breakdown:
Memory Foam: Disintegrates after 3–5 washes
Latex: Absorbs detergent, becomes sticky
Cheap Microfiber: Sheds microplastics, clogs drains
1.2 The IvyTress Difference – Industrial-Grade Washability
Triple-Stitched Seams: 14 stitches/inch, Kevlar-reinforced
SAFEWash™ Certification: Survives 500+ commercial washes at 167°F
Case Study: Hotel chain reduced topper replacement costs by 72% over 5 years

2.1 Battle Against Microscopic Invaders
Dust Mites: 1 gram of dust = 1,000 mites
Mold Spores: Thrive in >60% humidity
2.2 IvyTress’ 4-Layer Defense System
Outer Shield: Tencel™ with Naturaloe® (kills 99.7% bacteria on contact)
Barrier Mesh: 1.2µm pore size blocks allergens
