In the early 1970’s NASA’s Ames Research Centre funded a development project designed to create a substance that could help protect Astronauts from the incredible g-forces experienced during space mission take offs and re-entry.
They believed that one of the key secrets to reducing g-forces on the body was to use a foam material that could conform to the shape of each astronaut and, more importantly, hold this conformity. While a foam mould of the Astronaut’s body shape could accomplish this, any movement would take the Astronaut out of this position and create incorrect pressure points against the body.
Instead, they created a new foam material that was Visco-elastic, (now more commonly known as ‘memory foam’) and therefore able to conform to the shape of the Astronaut, but return to its normal shape once pressure was removed from the foam. This could allow an even distribution of pressure or body weight over the entire surface of the memory foam, but, at the same time, quickly adapt to any movements of the body.
With this amazing discovery, Fagerdala World Foams of Sweden, Europe’s leading foam producing company, began experiments in the 1980’s to perfect this substance for consumer use. |

Two stylish designs
E-Motion has a stylish upholstered base, or if you are after a more contemporary feel the Autonomy should appeal. Autonomy has an attractive beech effect frame and a low slung, modern designer look. E-Motion is available with an optional Profile upholstered headboard and the Autonomy is available with an optional beech finish headboard. Both beds feature a five action motor which controls beech sprung slats to provide a choice of positions.

Strength and reliability
The two separate motors which are integrated into the adjustable bed frame use a separate transformer with only 24V electrical current present in the bed’s mechanism. This results in greater reliability and the built-in clutch for manual upward adjustment increases safety.
The frame has incredible overall structural stability; it has been constructed for maximum stress tolerance, making it three times as strong as the majority of other adjustable bed frames in the market place. The tension of the central slats can also be adjusted for a firmer or softer feel. |

Airsprung Company Information
In 1871 Hedley Chapman fonded a mattress factory in Trowbridge, Wiltshire or to be more precise, he began to manufacture straw palliases at the very reasonable price of 3s6d a pair. He was a firm believer in quality and value for money and as a result the company went from strength to strength.
In the early 1900's as mass produced mattresses became more sophisticated, so did the processes by which they were made and a programme of modernisation was introduced which ensured that the company was always at the forefront of technology. http://www.airsprungbeds.co.uk
