How The Tempur-Pedic Mattress Came To Be

Tempur-Pedic is a well known manufacturer of mattresses. The reason for the fame is that this company doesn’t produce your every day inner-spring mattress. Tempur-Pedic mattresses are made of a special type of foam that gives you a very different sleeping experience. But what is so unique about this foam, and how did it come to be?

In the 1960’s NASA was looking to develop a type of foam that could counteract the extreme effects of g-force on the human body. This resulted in the creation of the polyurethane foam. As the foam did not end up being used, a Swedish company came up with the idea of using it for mattresses and spent years and millions of dollars developing it until it came to be the Tempur-Pedic mattress.

These days there are many companies that use similar technology with their memory foam mattresses, but Tempur-Pedic was the trail blazer and is still considered as a standard in this type of mattress. If you want the real thing, this is the brand you go with. But how do their mattresses differ from other companies?

Tempur-Pedic mattresses are made up of three layers of foam, each serving a different purpose and contributing in their own unique way to your comfort. The top layer, called the comfort layer, is soft and instantly conforms to your shape, providing you with a soft surface for sleeping and helping to align your spine correctly.

Under this layer is the support layer, which distributes your weight evenly, preventing your back from bowing too low and securing proper alignment of your spine. The third layer is the base layer. This is the one that supports the entire mattress and it also has breathability, making the whole mattress more comfortable.

With these three layers, Tempur-Pedic mattresses have outdone their competition. There are a few different mattress collections to choose from as well. The first, the TEMPUR Collection, provides what you have already read about. The TEMPUR HD Collection is similar but provides a higher level of support with higher density (HD) foam. Then there is the TEMPUR Cloud Collection with ultra soft top layers, and even a pillow top version.

Tempur-Pedic mattresses provide you with comfort throughout the night, and this is long lasting comfort. These beds do not sag after the first few years and come with a lengthy warranty because of that fact. Also, they are easy to maintain and do not need to be flipped and turned regularly like other mattresses.

Whether you already suffer from back problems or are hoping to prevent them, or are just looking for a comfortable, health promoting mattress, Tempur-Pedic is one of the frontrunners and should certainly be on your short list of mattresses to check out.
