Amicor, the premium brand of anti-bacterial and antifungal fiber, was invented and marketed by Acordis, UK in late 1990s. Subsequently, the product,
technology and the brand was taken over by Acrylic Fibre Business (Aditya Birla Group) in 2007.
Amicor is recognized as a strong brand in Europe and US for its anti-microbial, anti-allergy
performance.
Simmons mattresses with Amicor fibers will create an environment which will not support the
growth of allergens like house dust-mites - thus reducing the risk of sensitivity to allergens.
Amicor fibers keep mattresses fresh and odor free. Clinical studies in Europe have shown that
Amicor fiber in beds and beddings can help to reduce problems like asthma, rhinitis and sinusitis
caused by dust-mite allergens. Amicor prevents sensitivity through prevention rather than cure.
The performance of Amicor brand fiber is certified by international certifying bodies like Allergy UK
Foundation (UK) with their “Seal of Approval”, and endorsed by Red Cross Asthma Hospital (Creu
Roja Catalunya), Barcelona, Spain.
Simmons anti-allergy sleep system with Amicor fibres is available in Beautyrest Vivado, a plushtop super pocketed coil mattress with latex and Beautyrest Energia, a super pillow-top mattress
with memory foam. We spend one-third of our life in beds, and without proper protection, beds are
almost always infected with house dust-mites allergens - the key asthma sensitizer. With millions
of babies, children and adults suffering from asthma, eczema, hay fever and rhinitis, reducing
asthma and allergies is among the top priorities. It is now time to arm ourselves for a healthier
and protected sleep at night.
