To drift easily off to sleep. To sleep peacefully through the night, waking rested without aches or pains. This is something many of us dream of.
Activus foam is engineered to eliminate any pressure against the body like a memory foam while supporting a person of almost any size in a natural position.
The feel of memory foam with good support has been impossible up to now. Mattresses made for firm support were definitely harder. Good support meant a surface which felt like a board...or softness meant your top and bottom had to hold up your middle all night. Today, we have a mattress material that is extremely comfortable while providing remarkable support, is extremely durable and highly resilient: ACTIVUS FOAM.
High resiliency is the ability of foam to bounce back after being compressed. Activus foam was designed to push up as your weight pushes down, giving each part of your body individual support. Its surface is soft and supple, almost flowing under your fingertips, providing luxurious comfort you didn't think you could get with the firmness you need.
Made without chlorofluorocarbons, it is as friendly to the ozone as it is to your body.
Spring mattresses are held together by a system of wire, and even the most "independent coil" innerspring mattresses show more tendency to sag than Activus foam. To achieve adequate support, springs must be moderately stiff. And then to be comfortable, the steel must be insulated by padding. This padding won't stretch much; when a body compresses the coils, the padding pulls down adjoining coils, creating a valley. Many better innerspring mattresses are made with a foam "topper" instead of padding, but then the foam must be supported underneath and covered on top. So the sagging effect can be only partially solved. A lighter person on the other side of the mattress still begins to "roll into the valley".
In Activus foam, each tiny cell acts as a spring. And, because the cells are so resilient and so strong, the "valley" effect is limited to only a few inches. The lighter person will hardly know the heavier person is there. And either one can get up or move around without disturbing the other. Activus foam doesn't sag as it supports.
Activus is engineered to sleep cool in warm weather and it breathes quietly. Since about 95% of its cells are open, air is squeezed in and out by body movement, much as you can squeeze water in and out of a sponge. There is no metal to squeak, so breathing action is completely silent.
Activus foam is non-allergenic. It is both dust and mildew resistant, greatly reducing the potential problems faced by those with allergies. In fact, it's such an inert material that only a few chemical solvents will affect it at all.
One of the best properties of Activus is its long-term strength and memory. In extensive "torture" testing, Activus foam showed no signs of hardening or softening or losing its shape. In normal bedroom conditions, it will give you many years of comfort.
In addition to its measurable comfort and other performance properties, Activus foam can be washed, dry cleaned, steamed, and sterilized. It's odor-resistant, non-allergenic, bacteriostatic, and resistant to mildew, fungi, vermin and insects. It also meets California Department of Furnishings Bulletin #117 combustibility guidelines.
Activus foam is manufactured WITHOUT CHLOROFLUOROCARBONS or FORMALDEHYDE. It meets the "ozone-friendly" definition established by the Federal Trade Commision. And it is recommended by the Green Consumer Guide as an environmentally sound bedding alternative that provides superior, long-lasting support and uncompromising comfort. A mattress of such quality and durability gives years of service.
