Rolled mattresses
All our mattress are offered compressed and rolled. This makes handling and delivery easier, avoiding damage during transit, and enabling collection from our web outlets - you can drive away with the mattress from one of our stores, which proves popular for many of our customers. We are, however, happy to supply mattresses flat, please request this when placing an order with our sales team.
The rolling process causes no damage whatsoever to the mattress. It is not a vacuum process, the air is not ‘sucked out’, the mattress is simply compressed to approximately 25% of its original size by the latest machinery from Italy. Web sites claiming that rolling the mattress causes damage probably do so as they do not have the expensive machinery necessary to do it.
We are part of a foam company trading since the 1970’s (35 years this year), and supply a large percentage of the UK’s medical mattress market. We carry out numerous clinical test and assessments towards pressure care and foam performance. All medical mattresses supplied to the NHS are foam based. The performance of foam as a sleeping surface actually improves with use, and you will find after the first few months your mattress becomes more comfortable. This is the foam cell structure becoming less resilient and slightly softer. Compressing the mattress for a short period for delivery actually speeds up this process and improves the feel of the foam.
If you have any questions regarding the rolling process, or you would like to place a flat mattress order, please call our free phone number today.
