Three Layered Core Summary
The core of this mattress has three layers. The three layered design is far superior to a two layered mattress core for comfort reasons. It creates a progressive firmness, eliminating the very common issue of a sleeper feeling the firm support layer beneath the soft memory foam. Many memory foam mattresses feel soft initially, but after compressing the memory foam layer, a sleeper feels as though they are lying directly on firm support foam. This can be uncomfortable. The intermediate foam layer we use acts as a transitional layer between the soft memory foam and the firm support foam, making a considerable difference in the comfort of the mattress.
Other low-end memory foam mattress manufacturers choose to use a two layered system because it's much less expensive to make. Many try to overcome the common problem of feeling the firm support layer under the soft memory foam layer simply by making the support layer softer. This approach only lowers the amount of support needed by the heavier parts of your body and your lower back. Optimal comfort and support can only be achieved using a three layered core.
Memory Foam Summary
With the Bamboo Breeze mattress, you can select either 1 or 3 inches of our TruCell memory foam to create a Firm or Soft comfort level. TruCell memory foam responds to your body temperature and weight, reducing pressure points and creating the perfect blend of comfort and support for less tossing and turning and improved circulation. TruCell, our High-Performance temperature smart visco elastic memory foam, was designed to withstand the long term effects of heat and moisture - a major cause of body impressions. Unlike the knock-offs and imports, our specialized formulas have passed strict laboratory tests designed just for bedding.
There were three common objectives in deciding on the best memory foam for our mattresses: heat dissipation, odor elimination, and cradling effect.
Dissipates Heat
The most common complaint with memory foam mattresses in general is that it can sometimes make a person feel warmer. Memory foam is very dense foam, making it harder for heat to escape. The more dense the foam, the less air flow for heat to escape. To overcome this problem, we use TruCell memory foam, which has an open-cell structure. The open-cell structure allows heat to escape and air to flow around the body, creating a more comfortable sleeping environment.
Unlike other open-cell structure memory foam, our proprietary chemical formulation translates into a more temperature neutral foam where heat is not allowed to build up. The engineering team met the challenge of addressing consumer comfort by inventing foam chemistry solely for eliminating the natural tendencies of heat associated with memory foam.
It is a fact that we use the coolest memory foam made by anyone. This has to do entirely with the shape of the molecules in the memory foam. There is no molecular shape that could dissipate heat better, and this molecular shape is patented. Though many other memory foam manufacturers advertise "cool memory foam", none dissipate heat as well as this memory foam. Through lab tests, other memory foam can pull heat and air side to side fairly well. However, other foams cannot pull heat and air well from top to bottom, which is what's most important. It is important for heat to be able to move down into the mattress so it can be pulled away from your body.
This memory foam feels cool to the touch. If fact, when placing your hand between two pieces of TruCell memory foam, you can actually feel the heat being pulled away from your hand.Virtually Odorless
Another common complaint with most memory foam mattresses is the odor. Typically, more dense foams, like memory foam, have a stronger odor because there is a higher concentration of material packed into a given space. Fresh Foam Technology used in TruCell memory foam alleviates odors associated with new memory foam. TruCell visco is "virtually odorless" visco foam because of the new proprietary chemistry of the open-cell structure, allowing it to breathe much easier. In addition, our TruCell memory foam will continue to eliminate odors through the use of activated carbon. It's the same type of material found in premium air filters and other odor filtration devises.
Cradling Effect
Strut reinforcing cellular technology (SRT) provides strength in the cell structure unsurpassed in the industry. SRT made its debut in the spring of 2005. This technology serves two purposes. The first is that it overcomes the cradling effect that many people find to be a nuisance when trying to roll over at night. TruCell memory foam fills in behind you as you turn in bed much quicker than most other memory foams. The second purpose SRT technology serves is that because the walls of the memory foam cells are reinforced, or stronger, it holds up much longer than any other memory foam of the same density on the market.
Support Foam Summary
The base foam used under the TruCell memory foam is M-Grade support foam. M-Grade foam was created specifically for bedding, unlike the very common HR (high resiliency) foams that most bedding manufacturers use, which is also used in furniture and upholstery products. Laboratory tests show that body impressions in a mattress are caused less by weight than what was always previously believed. Tests have shown that salts and moisture from the body actually break down traditional foams, leaving body impressions. M-Grade foam holds up remarkably better in these conditions than any other polyurethane foam currently on the market that has been tested. What does this mean for you? It means a much longer lasting mattress.
This base foam also uses Strut reinforcing cellular technology (SRT). This provides strength in the cell structure, which helps to prolong the life of the foam. You'll notice when you open the mattress for the first time, which will be compressed into a smaller box, the support foam rebounds back to its' original size within seconds. This cannot be said for most any other foam on the market. This is due to the quality of the foam and the reinforced cell structure.
