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. |

The innovative dual geometry design means that the springs are a different shape top and bottom. This enables the top of the spring unit to remain flexible whilst creating a highly stable foundation, delivering superb levels of comfort and support. As the mattress has a high coil count, it is both body conforming and weight responsive which significantly reduces pressure points, and the head-to-toe spring lacing helps prevent roll off and roll together.
This mattress is covered with a super-soft knitted fabric on the sleeping surface for additional luxury.
These Turn-Free mattresses are manufactured using only the finest materials available, ensuring outstanding performance and longevity. |

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
