Memory Foam Mattress – The Facts

<< Previous Page

Having been available for over 10 years the memory foam mattress is not a new concept, in fact foam mattresses have been available for well over 20 years.

A memory foam mattress, or to be more precise a Visco elastic foam polymer mattress, is manufactured from a temperature sensitive polyurethane foam that has the ability to compress, then slowly return to its original shape.

When pressure from a sleeper is placed on the mattress it compresses forming the natural shape of the human body. By compressing more, where the heavier or more pronounced body parts are (Shoulders, hips and feet etc) and less where the lighter and concave parts of the body are (neck, waist and ankles etc), your spine is supported in its natural position.

Body heat from the sleeper transfers to the temperature sensitive foam which softens to contour exactly with each individual sleeper. As more of the sleepers’ body is in contact with the mattress, counter pressure is spread evenly making the whole sleeping experience far more comfortable.

A memory foam mattress is therefore more supportive and comfortable and can allow the sleeper to achieve a much deeper sleep for considerably longer periods of time without the sleeper being disturbed.
