Having the right mattress is essential for preventing and managing pressure ulcers (bedsores) by reducing the pressure on vulnerable areas of the body. A suitable mattress helps evenly distribute body weight, preventing blood flow restriction that can lead to skin damage. It also minimizes the risks of friction and shear forces, which contribute to skin breakdown. Additionally, a mattress that provides comfort and support is vital for individuals who are bedridden or have limited mobility, as discomfort can lead to repositioning, further increasing the risk of pressure sores.

Specialised mattresses designed for pressure area care often include features such as moisture control, temperature regulation, and enhanced body positioning to reduce pressure on high-risk areas. Our Mattress ranges offer superior pressure relief by conforming to the body’s shape or using air cells that alternate pressure.
