Grounding Sheet vs Grounding Mattress Cover
Grounding Sheet vs Grounding Mattress Cover
Grounding is the practice of reconnecting your body with the Earth’s natural electric charge. It’s been shown to help reduce inflammation, improve sleep, and promote a deep sense of calm. But when it comes to grounding during sleep, there are two main options on the market: the silver-threaded grounding sheet and the carbon-based grounding mattress cover.
At a glance, they may appear similar. Both plug into a grounded outlet, both aim to connect your body to the Earth’s energy while you rest, and both promise improved wellbeing. But as our thousands of customers and the science have shown, the long-term experience with each product is very different.
In this post, we’ll break down what each product does, how they compare, and why BeGrounded’s mattress cover is the clear choice if you want stress-free, consistent, and long-lasting grounding.
Before we dive into the key differences, it’s helpful to understand how these products are similar in principle:
However, what sets them apart is durability, effectiveness, comfort, and long-term value.
Traditional grounding sheets are made from cotton interwoven with fine silver threads. Silver is conductive but delicate. And that’s the biggest issue.
Common issues we see:
We hear this all the time: “It worked at first, but I don’t feel anything now.” That’s not in your head. Silver sheets often lose conductivity after a short time. Leaving you ungrounded without even realising.
At BeGrounded, we believe grounding should be simple, effective, and stress-free. That’s why we stock the carbon-infused mattress cover. It’s the perfect low-maintenance alternative to silver-threaded sheets.
What makes our mattress covers different:
Just plug it in once, place your regular sheet on top, and forget it’s even there. You’re grounded every night without any extra effort.
Conclusion on Grounding Sheets vs Earthing Mattress Covers
While grounding sheets may seem cheaper upfront, they’re more expensive long-term if you have to replace them every few months.
Therefore, if you’re serious about grounding and want a solution that works consistently, the mattress cover is the clear winner in our opinion. Reasons for this is because:
It’s simple. It’s effective. And it’s built to last. Making it a great investment in your health.
A grounding sheet is made from silver-threaded cotton and requires direct skin contact to work. Our carbon-infused mattress covers, on the other hand, sit underneath your regular sheet and do not require bare skin contact. Making them more durable, comfortable, and effective over time.
No. BeGrounded mattress covers are designed to work through a regular cotton sheet. You do not need to sleep directly on them for grounding to occur.
Our carbon-infused mattress covers are built to last 3–5 years or more with daily use. Unlike silver-threaded sheets, they don’t degrade when exposed to moisture, friction, or washing.
You can, but it rarely needs washing. Since it sits underneath your fitted cotton sheet, it stays protected from direct contact with your skin and oils. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is usually enough.
We recommend using a grounding continuity tester, which plugs into your outlet and checks that your product is properly connected to Earth. Our mattress covers maintain conductivity reliably over time.
