Dust mites are widely believed to be the single greatest source of allergens. Dust Mites

Natural materials, including organic cotton, wool and latex, will not keep dust mites away. (Don’t believe the hype that wool and latex will repel dust mites.) Dust mites are widely believed to be the single greatest source of allergens. Furthermore, it is common for dust mites to live in mattresses.

Any non-waterproof mattress (including the Quilted Organic Baby Crib Mattress) would require an external dust mite barrier encasing to prevent dust mites from penetrating the mattress. However, an organic waterproof pad or airflow sheet will provide dust-mite protection for the top of the mattress which is where the majority of the problem lies.

The No-Compromise™ Organic Baby Crib Mattress Classic and No-Compromise™ Organic Baby Crib Mattress Ultra both feature a waterproof polyethylene surface that cannot be penetrated by dust-mites. There is no need for any additional dust mite barriers for these models.
