POTEMA Otto raises his hand — fresh linen alone is not hygiene

Hi, I'm POTEMA Otto.

I'll show you why the mattress belongs in bed reprocessing — calmly and in plain words.

The overlooked part of bed reprocessing

Clean linen is not the whole hygiene picture.

The linen is changed, the mattress rarely is. While a bed is in use, moisture, skin flakes, dust mites and fine dust settle deep in the core — beyond the reach of vacuuming and disinfectant wipes. POTEMA closes exactly that gap, documented and residue-free.

  • Deep in the fibre

    Everyday residues settle millimetres below the surface — out of reach of standard cleaning.

  • Wiping only reaches the surface

    Surface disinfection and vacuuming keep the outside clean — the mattress core stays untreated.

  • Hygiene on record

    POTEMA cleans right into the fibre — documented bed by bed, audit-ready for your quality assurance.

The process

Four steps to certification.

On site with you — from the test clean through to the certificate. Dry, no removal, no downtime.

After the appointment

What your facility is left with.

Clean clinic or care room with a freshly made bed
  • Documented down to the room number

    A service record per mattress with date, room and mattress number — ready to show at an inspection or audit.

  • An inspection seal on every bed

    Issued centrally by POTEMA. The bed becomes a visible part of your hygiene plan, not just a line on paper.

  • Noticeable for sensitive patients

    Allergens from dust mite droppings are deactivated — with no chemicals left behind in the room.

  • Mattresses last longer

    Regular deep cleaning maintains the material instead of replacing it — planned rather than reactive.

POTEMA Otto

No. Only allergy sufferers and people with sensitive airways should stay out of the room during cleaning and for an hour afterwards. Nothing else needs to be cleared.

No clearing outException: 1 hour

POTEMA Otto

No. Cleaning happens in the room, on the bed, with the mattress left in place. The process works dry — there is no drying time and no waiting period.
