The mattress should be used as part of a pressure ulcer prevention programme. The weight recommendation is less than 200 kg. The 5 cm thick upper layer of the mattress is a fire-retardant, softly mouldable visco-elastic foam (density 50 kg/m³) that equalises tissue pressure to prevent the development of pressure ulcers. The 8 cm thick base layer is a fire-retardant and durable rigid foam, HR foam (density 55 kg/m³), which supports the patient and eases postural support and patient movement. The two foam layers are glued together and have a total thickness of 13 cm. The mattress hygiene cover is a polyester hygiene fabric coated with polyurethane, which is impermeable to liquids but still breathable. The material is Oeko-Tex certified, bi-elastic, antimicrobial *) and fire retardant. The zipper is protected by a drip flap to prevent moisture from entering the inside of the hygiene cover. The cover can be machine washed at 70-95°C when turned inside out.
