Frequently Asked Questions
What is Memory Foam?
Originally developed in 1966 under contracts for NASA, Memory Foam was developed to help provide astronauts relief when undergoing the extreme physical stress of ‘G-Force’. The material is called ‘Visco-Elastic Polyurethane Foam’ popularly known as Memory Foam. It responds to the bodies heat and helps relieve pressure points and improve circulation.
With these unique qualities, Memory Foam products are simply the best in the market for providing consumers with a better night’s sleep. When compared to conventional inner-spring mattresses, there simply is no comparison.
However, during the past several years consumer demands for Memory Foam products has increased, bringing with it a surge of new brands including various products and qualities.

Going a step further, Gel Memory Foam products were created to help perfect the balance of comfort, support and optimal sleeping temperatures. To develop this, manufacturers use gel beads and inject these in to their Memory Foam. This revolutionary sleep technology helps consumers get a restful, pain-free sleep.
How does it work?
- Using Micro-encapsulation technologies, manufacturers inject gel beads directly in to their memory foam products.
- The Gel beads help to regulate body temperatures, providing an optimal balance of coolness and warmth, for the perfect night’s sleep.
- The Gel beads do not disturb the action of the memory foam in conforming to your body’s natural contours and they actually help improve air circulation for superior breathability.
