Foam Co Streamline 8" Memory King Size Mattress
Product Information
The Streamline mattress is what you expect of a visco elastic memory foam mattress (*). The technical specification - 70mm of 55kg/m3 density visco resting on a 130mm solid foam block - is standard. However, the Streamline has got the visco "mix" just right and indeed it received the ultimate endorsement by Which? magazine (December 2005). This is how a memory foam mattress should feel and at less than half the price you would have to pay for proprietary brands. Truly visco has come of age and you need no longer pay the high premium prices of yester year.
Please take a look at our visco elastic pillows.
(*) Visco-elastic memory foam is a synthetic polymer material that will respond to very small changes in pressure across its surface. It is the most profiling of all mattress fillings. If you were to place your open hand on its surface, the material would take the shape of your fingers. It is also temperature sensitive. The foam will relax more at body points that are constantly pressed against it. In this way it redistributes body weight, reduces pressure points and improves blood circulation. Indeed it was originally seen as a “health” product particularly suited to relieving bed sores.
There are two things to ask - how thick and how dense? Mattresses with the thickest and densest layers are the most expensive. Many people however prefer the feel of mattresses that use a thinner layer of less dense visco. So keep an open mind and try different types. Typical densities range from 40 to 100 kg/m3. Thicknesses range from 20mm to 80mm.
