Our product catalogue has been updated this week with the addition of 2 new mattresses, the Postureform Pocket 1000 and the Visco 16 Mattress, both from Breasley.

Breasley are the UK's largest manufacturer of memory foam mattresses and pillows and together with a full 5 year guarantee and over 30 years of experience they produce some of the best mattresses available.

The Postureform Pocket 1000 adds another type of mattress to the all foam mattress collection we previously offered. Featuring 1000 individually nested pocket springs (in the 5ft size) and a 5cm thick layer of firm high resilient foam the Postureform Pocket gives you the opportunity to enjoy a unique sleeping platform for maximum comfort and rest.

Keeping your neck and spine in the correct alignment is essential, by minimising movement during sleep (we move around less when we are comfortable) the mattress helps to enhance maximum rest which in turn helps you to enjoy a healthier lifestyle.

A calm and composed night's sleep depends primarily upon the quality of mattress we use in our beds. Memory foam mattress is a unique type of mattress that is pressure and temperature sensitive allowing the sleeping surface to mould itself to you body.

Memory foam was developed under a NASA contract in the 1970s that set out to improve seat cushioning and crash protection for airline pilots and passengers. Contrary to popular belief the material was never used in any space program and in the 1990s, the product was launched in the commercial market in the form of topper pads and then as foam mattresses.

A Memory Foam mattress reacts with body heat and consequently within a few minutes the mattress forms around the shape of the body, if you move during sleep the mattress re-forms again. There are 3 main postures in which we normally sleep - back, stomach and side and most people use more than one position to sleep. With Memory Foam's unique ability to mould itself you can have a restful nights sleep in almost any posture.

The Memory Foam has shown excellent characteristics in responding to changes in temperature and its capacity to reduce pressure by spreading the weight evenly over a larger surface area. Thus the memory foam used in a mattress has proved to be beneficial for many problems like arthritis, back ache and joint problems. The visco-elastic nature of Memory Foam mattress helps to disperse accumulated pressure points away from the vertebrae.

Besides the use of memory foam in mattresses, it is also used in pillows, positional sleep aids, office furniture, footwear, infant cribs, car seats, wheel chair cushions, computer carrying cases and many more.

A Memory Foam mattress provides a comfortable, relaxed and undisturbed night's sleep that a tired body desires after a day's work.
