My colleagues cousin has a business making bedding with a bit of a twist. The bedding comprises of a side wall, that goes around the mattresses, and a top 'lid' that is fastened to the walls by a zipper (hence the name Zipit). Under the mattress there is a mesh -type of net to let the air circulate.
Once the bed is zipped up, the bedding stays put and tidy in everyday use. Most of their products go for domestic use but they have also supplied bedding for caravans and boats. Some designer fabrics are stocked as well as replacement lids in different colours.

Unfortunately their site is in Finnish only but have a look at the pics.
I kind of like the idea on a boat, and if these already exist I haven't come across one before. Our kids play in their cabin all the time and the duvets are a mess. Would be nice to just zip up the bed and have it neat all day. The obvious drawback is that it doesn't aid the drying up process of the mattress during the day.
As said, I know the owners cousin but neither him or I have any financial interest in this. It would be interesting to hear your views on the usefulness of the concept though.
