We’re proud to share that the Wemore Weighted Blanket has received the IBCCES Certified Autism Resource designation.
This designation recognizes our blanket as a supportive sensory tool in the area of Behavior, offering regulation benefits for autistic individuals and people with sensory sensitivities—especially those who can experience overstimulation, anxiety, or challenges with sleep.
What the IBCCES designation means
IBCCES (the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards) is a globally recognized organization focused on autism, neurodiversity, and cognitive differences. The Certified Autism Resource designation is awarded to products and services that demonstrate meaningful, supportive value for autistic individuals and related communities. For Wemore, this is an important milestone—and a reflection of what we design for every day: comfort that supports regulation, and products that fit real life.
Why Wemore was approved
IBCCES approval is based on the Wemore Weighted Blanket’s value as a sensory regulation resource—particularly within Behavior support. Here are the core areas highlighted:
1) Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS)
Wemore provides evenly distributed weight that offers steady, gentle pressure across the body. This form of input—often referred to as Deep Pressure Stimulation—can help users feel more grounded and settled.Many people use deep pressure to support:
- Nervous system regulation
- Reduced sensory overload
- Emotional steadiness
- A greater sense of safety and comfort
2) Supporting behavior regulation
In the Behavior domain, the Wemore Weighted Blanket is recognized for supporting behavior regulation capacity.It may help users:
- Ease anxiety responses
- De-escalate during emotional overwhelm
- Return to a calmer baseline
- Build smoother bedtime transitions
- Support sleep-ready routines
One point matters here: this isn’t about correcting behavior. It’s about supporting the ability to regulate—so the person has more access to calm, comfort, and control in their own body.
3) Support for common co-occurring needs
Many autistic and sensory-sensitive individuals also experience related challenges. IBCCES recognizes the blanket’s supportive value for common comorbidities, including:
- Anxiety
- Sleep disorders
- Sensory processing challenges
By promoting physical calm and reducing sensory “noise,” a weighted blanket can be a helpful part of a broader support plan for rest and regulation.
Made for real life
Wemore offers weighted blankets designed for teens and adults, with thoughtful sizing and balanced weight distribution across our range.
We believe sensory support shouldn’t feel clinical. It should feel like something you want to reach for—every day.
Comfort you can feel, design you’ll love
A weighted blanket only works if it’s comfortable enough to use consistently. That’s why Wemore focuses on the details that matter:
- Soft, skin-friendly materials that feel gentle and cozy
- Breathable construction designed for everyday comfort
- Secure, evenly stitched weight compartments for consistent pressure
- Eco-conscious choices that are kind to people and the planet
- Modern, beautiful aesthetics that look at home in any space
Support should be soothing—not scratchy, stiff, or bulky.
Supporting calm, rest, and better sleep
Many customers come to Wemore for one reason: they want to feel calmer—especially at the end of the day.
Wemore Weighted Blankets are often used to:
- Settle after overstimulation
- Wind down after a busy day
- Feel more relaxed at bedtime
- Support deeper rest and improved sleep onset
Because when the body feels safe and steady, sleep tends to come more naturally.
