Preparation & test clean
- Strip the mattress
- Check the machine: filter, height, UV-C
- Test clean on a small area



Deep-cleaned. Documented. On site.
What your guests never see
Freshly made does not mean deeply cleaned. Moisture, skin flakes and fine dust settle below the surface — where fresh linen and vacuuming cannot reach.
Everyday residues settle millimetres below the surface — beyond the reach of standard cleaning.
Changing linen, airing and vacuuming look after the top layer — deeper inside, the mattress stays untouched.
POTEMA cleans right into the fibre — for a room that feels noticeably fresh and stands out in reviews.
About us
Nobody can see what sits inside a mattress — which is why trust matters more to me than any promise. Since 1989 our mission has been to get beds so clean that we can prove it rather than simply claim it — that is why we developed a patented process. Dry, chemical-free, with a record for every bed, to the standard POTEMA partners keep in 21 countries.

Reference
In the hotel's own promotional film, POTEMA mattress cleaning is part of the hygiene concept — filmed during normal operation, in an occupied room, without removing the mattress.

Sample form
Your specialist partner fills in the service record on site and hands it to you — signed, with one line per cleaned mattress.
After the appointment

On request for the whole hotel — visible to guests, usable on your website, at check-in and with corporate clients.
An inspection seal on every mattress, a service record for every room: your hygiene promise is documented, not just claimed.
What is regularly drawn out of the fibres cannot keep working away inside the material. Care instead of replacement.
Allergens from mite droppings are deactivated — noticeable for guests who are sensitive to dust.
Hygiene subscription
The annual deep clean sets the baseline — Matratzen Cleanspray holds it after every departure. With the subscription, supplies arrive automatically instead of someone having to remember.

Questions? POTEMA Otto answers
No. Dry, with the mattress left in place — the room can be let the same day. The one restriction: allergy sufferers should stay out of the room during cleaning and for an hour afterwards.
Around 12 minutes for a standard 100 × 200 cm mattress, both sides. The surface is worked through in 16 counting units, longer on the head and hip areas.
The deep clean at least once a year, and every 6 to 24 months depending on occupancy. In between, your housekeeping team sprays Matratzen Cleanspray after every departure.
Every room attendant gets a spray bottle of their own on the trolley. It is applied after each departure, before the bed is made up again. Refills and the annual refresher training run through the hygiene subscription.
An inspection seal on every cleaned mattress and a service record for every room: date, room and mattress number, follow-up care, inspection seal, next appointment, remarks. And on request, a hotel certificate you can display.
In eight steps: booking, preparation, presentation of the concept, explainer video, a live demonstration on one mattress, follow-up care, inspection seal and documentation — the certificate at the end.
For as long as the hygiene subscription runs. When the subscription ends, so does the right to use the inspection seal. POTEMA issues the seal centrally.
