Cooler Feel for more Comfortable Sleep

Traditional memory foam is known to “sleep warm” due to the closed cell structure of the foam which serves as an insulator. EnviroTech® Memory Foam’s open cell structure allows more air flow, and ensures that heat and moisture both dissipate more rapidly, making the foam cooler, instead of becoming trapped in the foam making you feel increasingly warm and “clammy”.

• In fact, heat dissipation and airflow tests show that memory foam dissipates heat 5-8 times faster than traditional memory foam.
• Quick heat dissipation and more airflow throughout the foam translate into a cooler more comfortable night’s sleep for you!

There are 3 types of cooling at work to provide you with a cooler more comfortable sleep experience:
• Dynamic Cooling: The natural open cell structure allows for flowing air movement by convection. When a person shifts in bed, the open cells allow the bed or pillow to breathe, drawing heat away from the body.
• Latent cooling: A unique feature of this cooling property is that the foam actually absorbs heat away from the body
• Greater Heat Conductivity: A material’s ability to conduct heat is a key indicator of its ability to feel cool. Heat transfer across materials of high thermal conductivity like open cell foam occurs at a faster rate than across materials of low thermal conductivity; so heat and moisture both dissipate rapidly and enhance comfort!

Cooling tests on the foam include the following: 

Data shows that the foam has a 5-8 times better heat transmission rate than traditional memory foam


Data (above) shows that the open cell Visco dissipates heat 4+ times more rapidly than traditional memory foam.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of an EnviroTech™ Memory Foam Mattress?
An EnviroTech Memory Foam mattress provides you with the highest quality memory foam comfort that relieves pressure points, feels consistently cooler than traditional memory foam, and is made with environmentally conscious safety and quality you can count on.

Is there really a difference in EcoMemory foam quality and other memory foams?
As always, the key in mattress shopping is in understanding what you are getting in a memory foam mattress, as they are all not created equal.  Unlike many popular memory foams on the market today, EnviroTech Memory Foam:
• Has an open cell structure that ensures greater cooling and breathability, and greater responsiveness and pressure relief than traditional closed cell memory foam
• Carries the Certi-PUR® certification ensuring that the foam meets specific criteria standards for physical performance, indoor emissions and environmental stewardship
• Contains a percentage of soy polyols in addition to the traditional polyurethane foam formulation
• Is made in Canada with cosmetic grade ingredients, no fillers or additives

What does pressure mapping and relieving pressure points mean?
When visco elastic foam was first developed for NASA and for use in hospitals, the foam’s property to cushion the body for long periods of time without causing stiffness and soreness was a primary focus.  The longer you stay in one position on most traditional sleep surfaces, pressure points are created which eventually cause discomfort and lead you to turn yourself over, tossing and turning.  EnviroTech Memory Foam, on the other hand, moulds to the contours of your body so perfectly, it reduces the buildup of pressure points and results in less movement during the night, and more restful rejuvenating sleep.

Pressure mapping is the test on mattresses that measures its maximum pressure, and average pressure.  Eco memory foam demonstrates outstanding pressure relieving properties, and reduced pressure points on the body when compared to other traditional mattresses and memory foam mattresses.

I understand that there are many different types of memory foam mattresses that feel totally different when you lie on them.  How do I tell which is the best and most comfortable?
Mattress selection varies with each individual’s comfort preference.  However, the product development of the EnviroTech Memory Foam Mattress ensures maximal comfort three ways:

1. Pressure mapping research has helped us to create a combination of foam layers that maximizes the comfort and pressure relieving ability of the mattress.  The top layer of the EnviroTech mattress is a 4 lb density memory foam, a higher density, high quality foam with exceptional pressure mapping and responsiveness properties. The next layer is a transitional foam layer that helps maximize the benefit of the memory foam on top, and the third layer is a high density foam base for support and durability of the mattress.

2. Customers wanted memory foam that sleeps cooler than traditional memory foam, and this open cell foam creates more breathability and heat dissipation.

3. Fabric choice of the Cashmere Luxury ticking enhances the mattress with its soft luxurious feel, and also supports the cooler feel of the mattress through the fabric’s natural moisture wicking properties.

Is the mattress ticking washable?
The Cashmere Luxury mattress cover is fully zippered and removable for easy laundering.  Both the foam and the cover may be spot cleaned with warm, soapy water and air dried or the cover may be dry cleaned.

Can I put a heated mattress pad or electric blanket on my mattress?
Yes.

Where is the mattress made?
The foam is made in Canada, and the mattress is manufactured in the USA.  EnviroTech is proud to partner with North American factories with success retaining local workers, recycling nearly 100% of their manufacturing waste materials, and maintaining high quality standards in all of the products they make. 

Their US manufacturer is also a Founding Member of the Specialty Sleep Association Green Initiative, an organization committed to improving consumer education in the bedding industry.  This progressive company works continuously to manufacture environmentally safe and sustainable products that consumers can count on.

Easy Delivery and Set up

EnviroTech™ Memory Foam is packed with a special roll pack technology compressor that squeezes air out of the foam while maintaining the uniformity of its cylindrical shape.  The mattress is compressed, rolled up, and enclosed in plastic to keep its tight shape.  After you remove the mattress from the box, carefully cut the plastic sheeting; then watch the mattress expand and regain its full original size and thickness in just a few hours!  Pretty amazing!  

EnviroTech Memory Foam’s roll pack technology is better than some of competitors for two reasons:  
1. Foams of lesser quality or that contain fillers often lose their ability to return to original size after they have been compressed – the construction and ingredients do not have the same amazing properties as EnviroTech Memory Foam, so the foam never springs back to its original shape. Because the foams are vacuum compressed before roll packing, the foam tends not to lose as much IFD (Indentation Force Deflection, a measure of firmness or softness of foam) during the compression process.

2. Some manufacturers fold their foam in various ways to get it into as small as a box as possible for shipping.  When the mattress is folded multiple times, it can cause extreme strain and stretching along the fold joint, resulting in a section of the mattress that has a different, sometimes uneven look and feel than other parts of the mattress.  EnviroTech Memory Foam’s single roll process makes sure the mattress maintains its consistent smooth surface, for years of valuable use.
