Protective Mattress Covers (PMC)

Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: October 19, 2006

What's the hazard

The terry cloth PMCs, which were made to fit over the Dux top pads, do not meet the federal standard for flammability under the Flammable Fabrics Act. They pose a risk of burn injury to consumers if exposed to smoldering or burning cigarettes.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled PMCs and discard them. Dux Interiors is directly contacting consumers who received PMC covers with their mattress purchases.
