Development History of Mattress

Early Development of Mattress

In 1900, it is the United States. Simmons pocket spring mattress; at the early twentieth century, it is the Dan Luo Fu rubber foam cushion; in 1932, the Italian Mario Berry Gee used the polyurethane foam for cushions; at World War II in Germany, Luis test Rani also designed an oval mattress, and he divided into soft, medium, hard three parts according to the body lying on a mattress on the different parts of the body pressure, so as to maintain the best condition of human bones.

Medium-term Development of Bed Mattress

At late 20th century, the infrared and magnetic field lines for mattresses, such as: Japan and the Shenzhen joint venture to produce the spring mattresses, a total of five layers, the first layer of the far-infrared ceramic layer in the human body can produce heated Penetration 6-14 micron wavelength, on the human body, can warm the body to clear the blood, the second layer is magnetically soft stick, may issue the lines of magnetic force of 1200 Gauss intensity. The third layer is the breathable layer weaving; fourth layer of natural wool fiber layer, moisture absorption sparse gas, improve the comfort of the mattress; fifth floor amino acid ethyl layers, maintaining elasticity and tension, resulting in soft "shiatsu" massage effect. It was determined after 20 minutes for human use, the pulse rose from 57 to 60 times; systolic blood pressure decreased from 153 to 145, diastolic blood pressure decreased from 92 to 82 (mm Hg); oxygen saturation from 95% to 97%; The new mattress increase the human health performance. Abroad also recently appeared an "active response to the spring system" to change the past, the usual spring construction form, make people more comfortable, flexible enduring; the some spring mattress with polyester foam combined with softness is optional.

Mattresses and Environmental Protection

In recent years, environmental protection and human health, and vigorously promote "green protection, many custom mattress commodities have introduced the concept of" green products ", people are closer to nature, and the reduction of environmental pollution guarantees human’s health. The "green products" has three features: the conservation of raw materials, energy, and use less expensive and scarce raw materials; Second, the product is harmless to human health; Third, do not pollute the environment, and easy to recycle, reuse and regeneration. So there is a plant fibers mattress, closer to the people to the natural desire to return to nature. A good mattress should have conditions: rigidity and softness compatible; moisture permeability; manifestation of support and cushioning effect; body pressure and transform the body parts with a mattress on the limit does not affect other sleep; the hardness of the mattress can be selected according to the age and physical condition.
