When the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center opened for business in early 2008, every guest in every room could sleep soundly knowing they're protected by a Crypton Mattress Protector. The 1500-room resort overlooks the Potomac River and is the largest combined hotel and convention center in the nation's capital region.

In preparation for its opening and for a long future filled with many guests, Gaylord Entertainment entered into an agreement with Crypton Mattress Protectors to ensure that it protects every piece of bedding, every guest and their entire bedding investment.

Every mattress on the property is outfitted with Crypton's unique, one-of-a-kind protector - the only one in the world that can be disinfected (using Crypton's EPA-approved disinfectant and deodorizer). And as a result, Gaylord will reap the financial rewards. The Crypton Mattress Protector is cold-water washable (saving money and energy), has unique
5-sided protection and can be easily spot cleaned, which eliminates wasted labor motions and decreases par level. And because it's engineered with Crypton's permanent integrated barrier, it will always resist stains and prevent fluids, mold, mildew, bacteria and odor from ever reaching the mattress.

The traveling consumer is increasingly conscious of germs, allergens and how they collect on bedding. They protect themselves with mattress protectors in their home and they deserve the same protection when traveling. In every Gaylord hotel room, the Crypton Mattress Protector's proven allergen barrier keeps the mattress from collecting debris that can trigger illness and asthma, making it a healthier stay for every guest. Plus, there are no plastics, PVCs or lamination, which means it's breathable, quiet and environmentally friendly.

Guests will applaud - and recommend -hotels like the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center that provides them with the clean room they expect and deserve - right down to the mattress.
