Your Sofas And Health Are Intertwined

That luxurious sofa that you enjoy sitting on has a direct impact on your health. How is this?

• Allergens

Getting the sniffles whenever you use the furniture in your household is a pointer to allergens in the upholstery. Coughs, sneezing, watery eyes, and nasal congestion are reactions to particulate matter like dust and dander that is inhaled. Itchy skin can also occur, especially for those who are sensitive to dust mite waste that is accumulating within the cushions and fabric of the sofa. For those with pets – especially cats or dogs, the fur and dander that is deposited on the sections of the sofa that the pets like sleeping on makes them allergen hotspots, triggering reactions once inhaled.
