Structural difference mattresses

All modern mattresses on the internal structure can be divided into spring and springless. The main difference between the latter type - a low spring effect. Also, each type of mattress design has its subspecies, which we discuss below.

Blocks with dependent springs

Spring mattress blocks called "Bonnell" and is generally used in the manufacture of "economy class". A feature of such units is that each spring member is rigidly connected to the adjacent, and at a pressure to one and the surrounding subside. The main disadvantage of these units is considered to decrease the supporting effect due to the rigid coupling springs between them.

independent springs

In such a construction the springs are placed in individual cases, connected with each other. Due to this load is distributed evenly, allowing the mattress to more accurately adjust to the body of the sleeping person. This type of support structure has excellent properties and quietness. Blocks with independent springs are standard (200-300 pcs. / M²) And metal coils of small diameter (500 pcs. / M²).

springless design

At the moment, sleep products manufacturers are producing a wide variety of non-sprung mattresses from elastically soft to very hard models. Springless design constitute a monoblock from any single material or combination of several different layers, differing from each other in properties and degree of rigidity.

The materials used for the manufacture of springless mattresses:

• natural latex. Mattresses made of this material is soft or medium hard, but always elastic and at the same time taking exactly the contours of a sleeping person;
• synthetic latex, polyurethane foam, foam rubber, etc. These mattresses are well ventilated, capable of withstanding heavy loads and are recommended for children with upper spine problems of teenagers and people;
• combined - "Coco-Latex". It is hard mattresses that supporters prefer natural materials. There is a limit on the weight of 90-100 kg per sleeper;
• coconut. Mattress filled with very hard and is usually prescribed by a doctor for people with problems of the spine and newborns.

combined mattresses

Combined mattress construction are evident from the dependent or independent springs and layer of latex foam, coconut fibers, etc. Thanks to this combination, you can adjust the degree of stiffness of the mattress by simply flipping it to another side.

How to choose an orthopedic mattress for a double bed

The term "orthopedic" denotes the ability to fix high deformation musculoskeletal or compensate for their deficiencies. Although to mattresses and used such a thing, but this is not true, because they are not able to cure diseases of the spine, but can reduce the pain. The undoubted advantages of mattresses should include the following:

To choose for your bedroom high quality orthopedic mattress, you need to pay attention to important parameters such as:

• rigidity;
• dimensions;
• fillers;
• an outer cover.

rigidity of the mattress

This setting directly affects the well-being of a sleeping man and his feelings during the holidays. There are three degrees of hardness of the mattress:

1. low. Such designs are made of natural latex and are recommended for people of a small physique and weight.
2. Central. These mattresses are made from synthetic latex, polyurethane foam or other similar materials.
3. high. Most mattresses are made of hard tvordonabivnyh fillers. Most often, such models are used by people who are experiencing problems with the musculoskeletal system, such as osteochondrosis.

Recommendation! Not to be mistaken with the choice, it is better to buy a double bed with a mattress from one manufacturer.

fillers

The material from which made the mattress is largely dependent stiffness surface on which we sleep, and immediately comfortable rest. Consider the most basic kinds of fillers. Immediately it should say that the batting and foam are the most unpopular and useless material because of its rapid deformation and wear.

Polyurethane foam

This material, which, in fact, is a foam and improved foam, has excellent orthopedic properties and is often used in the manufacture of mattresses. Sleep surface, which is used as a filler polyurethane foam (PUF), is very convenient and comfortable because they provide good support to the sleeping person's body.

Unlike synthetic and natural latex is the degree of rigidity, and because of its characteristics, this filler has been applied for the production of children's mattresses.

Struttofayber

Another popular modern and the material used as filler mattresses - struttofayber. It is arranged vertically polyester fiber, making it more resistant to stress and wear. Due to its characteristics of the material used to create the skeleton of mattress, which are added to other fillers, which allows to obtain products with different degrees of hardness. Struttofayber has high orthopedic properties and long service life, making it one of the most popular fillers for mattresses.

Coir

This is perhaps the most popular filler for mattresses. Coir is a natural and environmentally-friendly material, whereby it is so appreciated by both manufacturers and consumers. Such filler does not absorb moisture, good air permeability, it is not subject to decay and prevents the growth of various bacteria and bed tick.

The outer cover berth

When choosing a mattress, in addition to the above characteristics, should pay special attention to the upholstery (mattress covers) this necessary piece of furniture. From this part, namely from its quality depends on the appearance and durability of the bed. For the manufacture of mattress cover used synthetic and natural fabrics with different densities. It is recommended to choose upholstery jacquard or heavy calico. Well, if the outer coating will possess anti-dust properties, high strength, hypoallergenic, breathability and elasticity.

How to choose the right mattress for a double bed on the degree of stiffness

When choosing a mattress is the most difficult to determine with the required rigidity bed, which can not be measured by conventional measuring devices. One of the main misconceptions is that many people think too hard mattresses are the most useful for the back and spine.

Mattress manufacturers offer consumer models that combine just two levels of hardness - one side is hard, the other softer. Also, in these places there are bedrooms and various types of coatings. For example, turning the mattress, you can achieve greater comfort.

There's nothing difficult was not just on one side of the set more rigid, and on the other - less taut steel spiral. Such a double mattress will allow to rest comfortably at the same time two people with different weight and medical conditions.

Independent springs with an asymmetrical filling

Rigidity of the mattress can be adjusted not only by tension springs, but use a combination of different types of filler. For example, coconut coir, on the one hand, provides a sufficiently high level of rigidity, and latex, on the other hand, to make the surface to sleep more soft and comfortable. In these mattresses are used, independent spring units, providing additional support to the spine.

Spring blocks DS

DS blocks are a special design, which is in the middle of the orthopedic mattress. The unit consists of double springs: small diameter metal spiral placed inside large. If a mattress lies a man of small or medium-weight, it will be used only outside springs, and the inner spiral body connected to the support only if the sleeper has significant weight.
