A lot of Hotels experimented with full foam mattresses in the early nineties. When they did they pleasantly discovered that guests actually noticed and commented on how comfortable and relaxing the mattresses were.

The research wasn't particularly scientific; they merely recorded the comments of a number of regular guests that were asked to grade each model. Their choice, based primarily on nothing more than a comfortable night's sleep, was full foam. Based on the research and the overwhelming response by their guests, some Hotels changed all their beds to full foam mattresses and have not looked at conventional spring mattresses since.

Customers who have slept on foam specifically ask for a full foam mattress when they make their reservations. Similarly, people who have slept on foam in a Hotel are coming to us and replacing their mattress at home with a full foam sleep system. That is why full foam is the fastest growing sleep surface.

FOAM FACTS & INFORMATION

We want to help your patients and customers sleep better by giving you the mattress that is right for them. We use scientific testing to determine the right firmness for your application. We also carry 40 grades of foam including: the world’s best latex, 5 types of memory foam and our exclusive brands of soy-based foam – Ecocell, Preserve, Enurtia Visco-Soy and Koosh Natural. They come in different levels of firmness that can be combined to give you the best comfort, support and durability.

We make better mattresses
because we use better foam

• Most commercial mattresses are made with lower density polyurethane foam grades that range from 1.3 lbs to 1.9 lbs in density. We know because we supply them.
• Polyurethane grades soften up quicker with use and more than High Resiliency (HR) grades. Some are made with Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs) to make the foam fire retardant. These chemicals have been linked to numerous health problems. None of our grades contain PBDEs.
• We can supply you with any polyurethane grade or you may want to go with one of our exclusive higher density, longer lasting, bio-foam grades. The choice is yours.
• Good Ecocell 2.0 lb high density polyurethane, some soy content, beige colour
• Better Preserve heavier 2.2 lb density HR foam, more soy content, peach colour
• Or Best Koosh the heaviest 2.5 lb density HR foam, the most soy content, green colour
• All bio-based foams are fire retardant (no PBDEs). Koosh Natural is made with organic halogen free fire retardants.

Covers are important, but remember...
“It’s what’s inside that counts!”

• Firm Edges for better edge support. Keeps mattress from sagging when you sit on the side.
• Waterproof covers can be made with a centre 360° zipper for easier removal or cover replacement.
• Protective flaps (waterfall cover) fall over zipper to maintain waterproofing properties.
