Safe4Care overlay mattresses key features:
Safe4Care Overlay Mattresses are high-quality, long-life products adding important value to your caregiving.
SAF foam reacts to body heat. Softens and moulds to the exact shape of the body making the support area significantly larger and thereby reduces pressure.
SAF foam has a homogeneous cell structure with open cells with very strong cell walls. The open cell structure provides good ventilation in the mattresses, thus ensuring comfortable temperatures and humidity levels.
SAF foam is heavy, but compared to other visco-elastic foams it is light and very easy to handle because of its extremely high tensile strength. It does not fall apart even when handled and used without a cover.
SAF foam is safe to use without a cover. The foam can be machine washed at up to 95° C and tumble dried. It is therefore easy to reuse in demanding hospital and nursing home environments.
Mattresses can be used with a PU-cover in hospital and nursing home environments for easy cleaning… but a PU-cover will always increase temperature and humidity levels in the contact area between body and cover, making the risk for skin damage higher and at the same time reducing comfort.
SAF foam is CFC- and halogen-free and no toxic compounds are added. Therefore SAF is classified as completely harmless and may be disposed of accordingly after use.
