Frequently asked questions
Is the sheepskin underlay suitable for people at risk of pressure ulcers?
Yes, this underlay is specially designed for pressure ulcer prevention. Its soft surface and air permeability reduce pressure points and prevent skin maceration, two essential factors in protecting bedridden or mobility-impaired people.
How should the sheepskin underlay be positioned on the bed?
The underlay is placed directly on the mattress or fitted sheet, with the sheepskin side facing up, under the body areas most exposed to pressure ulcers. The 70 x 90 cm size is suitable for protecting a targeted area, while the 70 x 140 cm version offers more extensive coverage.
Can the sheepskin underlay be washed at high temperature?
Yes, the underlay can be machine washed at up to 95°C, allowing effective disinfection in a medical or home setting. However, it is important not to use a tumble dryer or iron to preserve the fabric's qualities.
