Tempur® is an ultra high-tech comfort material, originally developed by NASA to cushion astronauts against massive G-forces during take-off. Now the same technology has been applied to sleeping solutions, resulting in unprecedented comfort and support. |
In scientific terms it is a "high-density temperature-sensitive visco-elastic material with an open cell structure". In practice, this means Tempur® has unique pressure-relieving properties at low as well as high pressure loads. | When body heat and weight is applied, Tempur® distributes the pressure evenly, preventing pressure build-up in vulnerable parts of the human body such as the neck and back. It also becomes softer with warmth and firmer in the cold. | Under body heat it quickly shapes to the body to provide optimum support; with pressure removed, it reverts to its original shape. | Tempur® is also treated with an anti-bacteriological agent so it remains clinically clean throughout its life. All Tempur® products come with a 3-year manufacturer's guarantee. | The Leg Spacer can be used in two ways. Firstly, folded between the legs to cushion the thighs and shins - and especially the knees - from pressure when lying on your side. Unfolded, it can be placed under the ankles to bring pressure relief to the heels and ankles when resting on your back. | 20 x 52 x 10 cm unfolded (26 cm wide folded). |
