The new range of textiles, designed specifically for the care and hospital sectors, includes smart mattress covers that can alert nursing staff when a patient leaves his bed or dependent.
The Senso Tiss mattress covers won the 12C tech Innovation Award at Belgium's Expo 60+ fair. These mattress covers are made using a three-dimensional fabric that has sensors to detect and signal when a patient is in or out of bed. Besides the healthcare sector, the mattress covers also have many applications in home automation.

Mattress covers have a moisturizing function, a three-dimensional knit structure to prevent bedsores, and Purotex technology to avert house dust mite (HDM) allergy and asthma.
