What is Ultra Foam?

Ultra Foam, as the name implies, is a brand name given to a particular type of foam that exceeds certain High Performance and Durability Standards. Such tests include:

  • Flex Fatigue Tests 

  • Tensile Strength Tests

  • Compression Modules Tests

  • Density Tests

  • Aging Tests

Simply put, before the foam is accepted, it withstands extensive bending, stretching and abuse, far beyond the normal wear and tear of many lifetimes.

All foam mattresses are not the same.  

As you've seen, many tests are used to determine the quality of  foam. Density is by far the most important guide. Many  people  relate density to firmness, and that  is totally incorrect. Density is measured by the pounds per cubic foot, (PCF)  Other foam  mattresses can be extremely firm with very little density; causing it to break down very quickly. 
  • Ultra Foam has a density of 2.25 lbs. per cu. foot  the highest used in foam mattresses. This high density gives it a 100% memory; always going back to it's original shape; no more sagging.

  • Ultra Foam like most Quality Foams is resilient. It contours to any body shape, automatically adjusting as you move.  Supports your body comfortably for hours of restful sleep.

  • Ultra Foam mattresses are durable. You can actually fold your mattress without doing damage. This feature gives the mattress longer life.

  • Ultra Foam is independently adjustable. People of all shapes and sizes sleep comfortably on foam mattresses. The tiny foam cells cradle the natural shape of your body allowing the heavier parts of the body the proper support and comfort you require.

  • Ultra Foam Mattresses are ideal for allergy sufferers. Highly resistant to mildew, foam is clean and dust free. With it's open cell structure, air circulates freely throughout the mattress keeping it fresh and dust free.

  • Ultra Foam Mattresses are quiet. There is no moving parts to make noise.

  • Ultra Foam is odorless. Constant air flow through the cell structure allows moisture to evaporate, preventing build-up of odors.

  • Ultra Foam is cool and comfortable for sleeping. The self-ventilating feature enables you to sleep cooler in the summer, while in the winter, warm air  trapped beneath the blankets circulates within the foam mattress keeping you warm and cozy.

Notice the price of  this mattress even then. Yet it doesn't have a zipper or 9 piece construction which would make it even more expensive
