Abstract

A sleep system includes a ticking for a mattress, a bed cover, and a pillow cover. The ticking for a mattress is made of a first material. The ticking and the mattress together have a first set of temperature regulating performance-based properties associated therewith. The bed cover is made of the first material or of a second material having substantially the same temperature regulating performance-based properties as the first set of temperature regulating performance-based properties. The pillow cover is made of the first material, the second material, or of a third material having substantially the same temperature regulating performance-based properties as the first or second set of temperature regulating performance-based properties.

Claims (20)

1. A sleep system comprising:

a mattress having a ticking made of a first material, at least one layer of foam therein, and one or more optional layers of coils therein, wherein the ticking and the mattress together have a first set of performance-based properties associated therewith; and

a bed cover having one or more layers that together provide a second set of performance-based properties, wherein the second set of performance-based properties have substantially the same performance-based properties as the first set of performance-based properties.

2. The sleep system of claim 1 , wherein the bed cover is one or more of a mattress protector, a mattress encasement, a mattress pad, or a mattress topper.

3. The sleep system of claim 1 , wherein the first set of properties are performance-based properties that include one or more of cooling, heating, breathability, and wicking properties.

4. The sleep system of claim 1 , further comprising a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and a pillowcase made of a material that has properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

5. The sleep system of claim 1 , further comprising a comforter made of a material that has properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

6. The sleep system of claim 1 , further comprising a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a pillowcase, a blanket, and a comforter, each made of one or more materials that have properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

7. The sleep system of claim 1 , wherein the ticking is a fabric that may or may not be quilted.

8. The sleep system of claim 1 , wherein the bed cover is a fabric that may or may not be quilted.

9. A sleep system comprising:

a mattress having a ticking covering the mattress made of a first material and at least one layer of foam positioned therein, and one or more optional layers of coils, wherein the ticking and the mattress together have a first set of performance-based properties associated therewith; and

a pillow cover having one or more layers that together provide a second set of performance-based properties, wherein the second set of performance-based properties have substantially the same performance-based properties as the first set of performance-based properties.

10. The sleep system of claim 9 , wherein the pillow cover is permanently associated with a pillow or is removable from the pillow via a zipper or other attachment means.

11. The sleep system of claim 9 , wherein the pillow cover is a fabric that may or may not be quilted.

12. The sleep system of claim 9 , wherein the first set of properties are performance-based properties that include one or more of cooling, heating, breathability, and wicking properties.

13. The sleep system of claim 9 , further comprising a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and a pillowcase made of a material that has properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

14. The sleep system of claim 9 , further comprising a comforter made of a material that has properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

15. The sleep system of claim 9 , further comprising a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a pillowcase, a blanket, and a comforter, each made of one or more materials that have properties that are substantially the same as the first set of performance-based properties.

16. The sleep system of claim 9 , wherein the ticking is a fabric that may or may not be quilted.
