Compositions and certifications
Composition
The continuous spring
The continuous spring is made up of several rows of springs attached to each other in a helical fashion. This principle allows each spring to distribute the weight over a larger area by using the adjacent springs, thus reducing the tension exerted on them in the long term. This type of construction allows the springs to hold their shape longer and have a longer useful life than conventional type springs.
Side supports
Side supports in high compression foam on 100% of the perimeter.
Cushioned Top
The cushioned top is a CertiPUR-US® certified high-density comfort layer. Made of flexible foam made from renewable natural products (such as soy), it provides this mattress with great comfort, compression and stable density, as well as valuable durability.
Certified CertiPUR
CertiPUR-US® stands for comfort and confidence! CertiPUR-US® is a not-for-profit certification body developed by the flexible polyurethane foam industry. Accredited flexible polyurethane foams meet CertiPUR-US® program manufacturing, emissions and durability standards. They are also analyzed by independent testing laboratories. Certified CertiPUR-US® foams are:
Made without substances that deplete the ozone layer.
Manufactured without PBDE, TDCPP and TMCP (Tris) flame retardants.
Manufactured without mercury, lead or any other heavy metals.
Made without formaldehyde.
Made without phthalates which are regulated by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.
They release low emissions of VOCs (volatile organic compounds), thus preserving indoor air quality (less than 0.5 parts per million).
