What size pillow protector to choose: size guide

Choosing the right size pillow protector is essential to ensure effective protection and optimal comfort. An improper size compromises the effectiveness of the allergen barrier and can create discomfort during sleep.

Standard dimensions and their correspondences

The ZenPur pillow protector in 50x70cm size represents the most versatile format on the market. This size is ideal for standard rectangular pillows from 40x60cm to 50x70cm, providing complete coverage with a slight margin. For square pillows 60x60cm or 65x65cm, opt for the corresponding square pillow protectors. The cover should always be slightly larger than the pillow to facilitate installation without compressing the filling.

How to correctly measure your pillow

Measure your pillow flat, from edge to edge, without compressing it. Add 5 to 10 cm to each dimension to determine the ideal size of the pillow protector. This margin allows for the thickness of the pillow and makes it easier to insert. A pillow protector that is too small will create tension on the seams and zipper, reducing its lifespan. Conversely, a model that is too large will form uncomfortable creases under the pillowcase .

Adapt according to the type of pillow

Ergonomic or memory foam pillows require special attention. Their specific shape may require a pillow protector with greater comfort. Very thick pillows (over 15 cm) benefit from a pillow protector one size larger to avoid compression. The soft and malleable texture of ZenPur adapts perfectly to different pillow shapes while maintaining its waterproof and breathable properties.

The importance of the closing system

The zipper should be at least 3/4 the width of the pillow protector for easy insertion. The ZenPur model has a generous opening that allows the pillow to slide in effortlessly, even for large models. Once closed, the pillow protector should evenly envelop the pillow without any tension areas. The 2-piece set ensures that the right size is always available, even during washing. The OEKO-TEX certification ensures that even at maximum size, the pillow protector remains safe and comfortable.
