Types
of mattresses
The
difference is in the raw materials
In recent years, Swiss industry has developed a series of high-tech,
environmentally friendly polyurethane materials with varying degrees
of strength, pliability, weight, porosity and durability. Because
these products are the result of many years of high technology research
and development, they are not easily copied.
Polyurethane
core
Solid and firm, yet flexible: these are the ideal characteristics
of any high-quality mattress. Polyurethane provides superior comfort,
particularly through "point elasticity," a term used to
describe material that adjusts to the pressure of a single finger;
compensating for any movement, no matter how subtle. This effect
guarantees consistent body support. Confort Suizo mattresses use
high-quality, high-tech polyurethane materials called Suplex and
Micro-Tec.
Characteristics
There are many ways to combine Suplex or Micro-Tec with natural
materials in order to improve the characteristics of a mattress.
The use of sheep's wool, for example, provides optimum bed climate
control. These mattresses are also silent, easy to handle, and contain
no metal parts.
Innerspring
mattresses
The core of an innerspring mattress consists of a steel spring structure.
Depending on the manufacturing process, the springs are inserted
into the polyurethane and/or between multiple layers of cushioning
materials.
Ventilation channels
Whenever the sleeper moves, the channels permit air stored in the
mattress to be partially expelled and exchanged for fresh air. This
ventilation helps transport moisture out of the mattress. The ventilation
channels also contribute to the elasticity of the mattress and make
it lighter in weight.
