Ten years ago in 2008, the original version of Evolon had already been the first fabric for anti-mite encasings worldwide to be ECARF-accredited. Evolon New Generation has also been granted the Oeko-Tex mark (standard 100, product class 1, attachment 6), which certifies it is free of harmful substances and suitable for contact with baby skin.

Evolon New Generation is made from super-microfilaments that are half the thickness and twice the density of those used in the original Evolon. This increases its filtration performance significantly.
