Should the plastic film on the mattress be removed? Thanks to the reminder of the furniture owner, understand the problem early.
In the busy city life, people often do not remove the plastic film on the mattress in time for various reasons after buying it, and this seemingly small negligence can bring a series of serious consequences. Today, we will take a look at this problem and remind everyone not to forget to remove the plastic film on the mattress.
First, let's understand why some people think that keeping plastic film protects the mattress. They generally believe that plastic film can prevent dust, stains and other substances from contaminating the surface of the mattress, thereby extending the life of the mattress. However, this notion is actually wrong. Although plastic film has a certain protective effect, it also has many drawbacks.
1. If we don't remove the plastic film, we turn our body when we sleep, and it is easy to cause friction between the mattress and the plastic film, resulting in a creaking sound. This sound not only affects the quality of our sleep, but it can also make the family feel uncomfortable. In the long run, poor sleep quality may lead to problems such as weakened immunity and memory loss, which poses a potential threat to physical health.
2. The human body will produce a certain amount of heat during sleep, which will cause a large amount of water vapor to be produced in the plastic film. Due to the good sealing of the plastic film, it is difficult for these water vapors to be dissipated, and over time, the water vapor will gradually penetrate into the inside of the mattress. This will not only cause the mattress to become moldy and smelly, but also may cause bacteria and mites to grow inside the mattress. What's more, some plastic films may add harmful substances such as formaldehyde in the production process, and these substances may also penetrate into the inside of the mattress with water vapor, causing great harm to our health.
So, how to properly dispose of plastic film on mattresses? It's actually quite simple. Immediately after buying a mattress, we should remove the plastic film and allow the mattress to ventilate for a day or two. This allows the moisture inside the mattress to fully dissipate, reducing the risk of mold and odor on the mattress. At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to check whether the mattress has quality problems, such as dents, breakage, etc. After making sure that there is no problem with the mattress, put on a clean duvet cover and use it.
Removing the plastic film from the mattress is an important step in our mattress process. Only in this way can we ensure that the mattress is safe and comfortable to use. I hope that through the introduction of this article, everyone can pay attention to this issue and avoid the adverse consequences caused by negligence. Finally, I wish everyone a healthy and comfortable sleeping environment!
