Do producers use chemicals in NOMITE bedding to avoid the entering of dust mites?

No. Bedding labeled with the NOMITE label has a special, tightly woven but still breathable ticking, in which down and feathers are filled. This exceptional fabric for pillows and blankets form a mechanical and thus natural barrier for house dust mites. Only these pillows and duvets are allowed to be labeled with the “NOMITE” label.
 

What is meant by “bed ticking“ and “cambric“?

Down and feathers must be filled into a tightly woven, but at the same time breathable shell. The shell must safely prevent the filling components (for instance parts of down and feathers) from penetrating the fabric. Furthermore, it shall support the properties of the filling materials such as regulation of humidity and breathability.
 
On the other hand, no parts from outside (e. g. skin scales or house dust mites) should get into the filling.
