Patients and residents with a very high body weight or a strong risk of pressure ulcers require special care and attention. The heavyweight mattress made by Stiegelmeyer helps to meet their requirements. With its com­bination of high-quality materials, it supports both their therapy and prophylaxis. Model S1 offers great comfort for persons weighing up to 240 kg. The 16 cm thick mattress consists of 3 layers: Thanks to its high point elasticity, the upper layer made of Rhombo-therm® adapts to the contours of the body, and ensures the user’s well-being. The middle layer made of firm and durable cold foam gives the mattress the necessary stability. The slightly more flexible cell structure of the base layer regulates heat and moisture in the mattress core. ESSENTIALLY BETTER Advantage of cold foam Like other types of foam, cold foam is made of polyether, but unlike other types, it is produced without any being generated. It is more elastic and even more permeable to the air than visco foam due to its open-pore structure. Cold foam adapts to the body’s contours, but quickly returns to its original shape when the patient or resident moves. This active recovery behaviour maintains the freedom of movement of the user and promotes mobility. Cold foam mattresses relieve the strain on the spine and discs and also on the joints. They prevent back problems and enhance well-being. The good aeration properties of the cold foam ensure a dry, hygienic microclimate.
