Pluracel V^x Memory Foam

We have made 3 major improvements over existing types of memory foam. Our Pluracel V^x memory foam sleeps cooler, immediately conforms to your body, & rebounds quicker than older types of memory foam. Our memory foam is open-cell which creates airflow, allowing to you to be cooler while you sleep. When you lay down in any of our mattresses you will feel the memory foam immediately conform to your body- no 'break in' periods or waiting for your body heat to activate it. This is accomplished by having a broader temperature range. It works immediately to relieve pressure and cradle your body. Older types of memory foam get hard when the temperature is cooler in your house; and gooey when it becomes too warm. Our memory foam also rebounds quicker, this allows the foam to retake its shape quickly and not create a 'crater' to roll back into when you want to change positions. Additionally, our foam is designed to prevent motion transfer, allowing you to move without disturbing your partner. 

High Resiliency Support Foam

Providing ideal support for your spine is worth every penny. The foam under the memory foam is just as important as the memory foam itself. Once you have been cradled by the memory foam and it has conformed to your body, you need good support foam to provide proper support. We use "high resilience"(HR) base foam. It is very durable, yet comfortable and supportive. 

A lot of memory foam mattress companies cut corners and use low quality base foam to increase their profit. Many of the lower priced mattresses (and higher priced ones too) you see on the market have inferior quality base foam under the layer of memory foam; this is the main cause of mattress sagging over time. 

Our mattresses use only HR support foam with a rating of 24/32. That means a 2.4 lb density with a 32 IFD. In this industry, most manufacturers will consider our base foam "overkill" in the quality department. We use this highest quality support foam in our mattresses because we know it will last and provide superior support for your body consistently over extended periods of time.

Certified non-toxic- safe for your family (and ours!)

BedInABox and Nest Bedding are dedicated to offering customers the safest mattresses available. We use only non-toxic, US-Made foam in our mattresses. All mattresses have been tested and certified by both Hohenstein Institutes and CertiPUR-US. This means that every mattress we ship is certified to be skin-friendly and hypoallergenic. They are certified to NOT contain substances that are known to be harmful to humans such as Phthalates, Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs), formaldehyde, CFCs, and others. Even the FR barrier we use is non-toxic. It is inherently fire-resistant and is not treated by harmful chemicals. 

The science behind PluraCel V^x Memory Foam

Pluracel V^x memory foam made from Pluracol materials is slab formulation technology that produces variable recovery rate urethane flexible foam. This material is designed to reduce pressure and cradle the body to provide superior comfort qualities. Pluracel V^x foam can be easily varied to provide property and "feel" characteristics to meet a wide range of applications. Foam buns cure quickly and do not need crushing. Pluracel V^x foam helps make more comfortable, more luxurious cushioning. 

BASF utilizes Dynamic Mechanical Analysis to target the properties and features of Pluracel V^x foam. With this tool, Pluracel V^xfoam formulations can be adjusted to move the glass transition temperature, and target a specific temperature range for visco-elasticity. Also, we analyze the height and breadth of the curve as a means of targeting recovery rates and pressure relief qualities. Pluracel V^xfoam represents state-of-the-art slow recovery foam technology targeted at the luxury bedding and specialty cushioning segments. BASF helps make the processing easier and helps correctly target properties in the manufacture of visco-elastic foams. BASF makes memory foam better.

Foam Core Care Instructions

Accidents happen; it is a fact of life, which is why we recommend you protect your mattress with a waterproof cover. These covers are designed to prevent spills and liquid from becoming absorbed by the memory foam core. Moisture is the enemy of memory foam and can cause permanent damage to the foam and void the mattress warranty. Our memory foam has open-cell technology; it will allow moisture to flow through it, but it is very difficult to remove all the liquid from memory foam if it does gets soaked. If the mattress does get wet, there are some steps you can follow to help minimize the damage. These steps are merely guidelines, and may not completely work for you to remove the liquid from the mattress. 

• Using a towel press down on the affected area to absorb as much of the excess liquid as possible
• After absorbing as much of the liquid as possible with the towel, allow to air dry until all moisture is gone
• You may also want to point a fan towards the foam to help air circulate and lower drying time

For stains, avoid using any chemical cleaners to remove stains, as these can damage the foam. The best way to remove stains is to use a lightly dampened cloth and blot the stain. Again, the important thing is to make sure the foam does not get wet, and if it does, give the foam ample time to air dry completely before putting sheets back on the bed.
