Our SKIN+ textile contains small capsules with the proprietary probiotic Bacillus indicus PD01. Friction between body and mattress opens the capsules, the probiotics multiply and produce so-called carotenoids, found in tomatoes and watermelons as well. These carotenoids are of the Lycopene type and are ten times more effective as the ones found in the fruits. Caratenoids get airborne and are attracted by our skin, even through sheets and night dresses.
The dosage of SKIN+ is calculated to match the effect of applying a carotenoid skin cream daily. Once the technology is activated, the production of carotenoids keeps going. The microcapsules with the probiotics connect strongly to the textile fibers and withstand up to twenty washings at 40 °C, thus covering the entire lifespan of the mattress.
