Memory Foam was developed around thirty years ago for NASA, but unfortunately they did not use this foam for their purposes.
However since then it has been widely used in various industries for it’s unique pressure relieving properties.
Memory foam is also known as “slow recovery foam” because when you apply pressure the foam “remembers” where the pressure has been applied therefore indentations in the foam with fingertips are slow to recover. The memory foam will fully recover to it’s original form and retain it’s shape and support for considerably longer than any other foam.

| Q4 |
Why does my mattress smell? |
| A4 | This is very a common question; first thing to remember is not to worry. Due to the chemical composition of all foam based products, the process invariable means that some odour may be present, especially if the foam block has been freshly cut. The odour has been described as being similar to damp. This will soon disappear, sometimes within a day or two after the mattress has been left to air. If you have any queries, please call us and talk to one of our representatives who will gladly explain any issues. |

How to Make Sure You Buy A Memory Foam Mattress That Will Last Longer
Memory foam mattresses and memory foam matress covers are helping people of all ages, sizes and shapes sleep comfortably. Here`s a buying guide so you know what to look for when you`re choosing a memory foam mattress.
FoamDensity
Memory foam density is measured by taking the weight (lbs) of a cubic foot (ft3) of memory foam. It ranges from 1.5 lbs/ft3 to 8 lbs/ft3 in most cases. 5+ lbs/ft3 matresses are pretty rare nowadays. Most standard memory foam has a density of 1.5 to 5 lbs/ft3.
The higher the density, the more expensive the mattress is.
You’ll probably be safe with any memory foam product ranging from 3 lbs/ft3 to 6.5 lbs/ft3.
Higher-density memory foams last longer and cost more, and usually (not always) give a higher level of pressure relief.
MemoryFoamThickness
You should not focus on the overall height of the mattress. Because we know memory foam mattress is not made only of memory foam. So you should consider only the thickness of the memory foam within the mattress. That`s only matters. There are mattresses with foams thickness ranging from just only 1″ to over 12″ or even 14″.
In our opinion, you`ll be ok with anything from 3″ to 6″. Lower would be too firm and you would bottom out the foam, and higher could cause improper spinal alignment.
MemoryFoamMattressFirmness
Firmness is measured in ILDs and the foams are ranging from 5 ILD up to 23 ILD.
In our opinion, you`ll be ok with anything from 9.5 ILD to 14 ILD. What we can for sure say is – stay away from anything lower than 8.5 ILD and higher than 17 ILD.
BuyingMemoryFoamTopper/Cover?
You might not need a whole memory foam matress.
If your current mattress is in good condition, you may just cover it by purchasing a topper. BUT, having a mattress in a good condition is a must, because if it sags – the pad/topper would have no effect at all!
