Supportive mattresses with high adaptability

Phew, you’re pretty exhausted from gardening today. Since you occasionally struggle with back pain anyway, you take a relaxing bath in the evening. Then you go straight to bed, where you immediately sink comfortably into your new Visco mattress, so that your back is relieved. At the same time, the base keeps you nice and warm. So you’ll definitely wake up relaxed tomorrow morning. In this guide, we’ll show you what other positive properties these mattresses have and what degrees of hardness they are available in:

Visco mattresses ensure pleasant sleeping comfort

Visco mattresses consist of several layers that support your body and at the same time give way when you lie down. The top layer consists of a thermo-elastic foam (memory foam) that adapts precisely to your body shape and relieves your back. This creates a pressure-free and weightless feeling when lying down. The foam also has the advantage that it returns to its original position after a short time when you move, so that no uncomfortable hollows are formed. In contrast to spring mattresses, visco mattresses do not spring back immediately.

Inside there is usually a firmer cold foam core that supports your body so that it does not sink too deeply. At the same time it ensures good air circulation. Visco mattresses combine two important properties for a comfortable sleep: they support, but at the same time adapt to your body. They are also suitable for allergy sufferers as they are less susceptible to mites.

Tip: If you have different requirements for a Visco mattress than your partner, you should choose a double mattress with two separate cores.

Back, side or stomach sleeper? Find the right mattress

No matter whether you sleep on your side, stomach or back – a mattress should ensure a comfortable sleep. You can find out which Visco mattresses are suitable for these sleeping positions in the following overview.

Visco mattresses for side sleepers

If you sleep on your side, it is particularly important that the mattress adapts well to your body and that the pressure and body weight are evenly distributed. This means that the shoulder area and, in women, the pelvis do not sink too deeply. The material ensures that your spine is always straight and that no unpleasant pressure points are created.

Tip: The pillow should not be too soft for side sleepers so that the head is always well supported when lying on your side.

Visco mattresses for stomach sleepers

If you want to use a Visco mattress when you mainly sleep on your stomach, you should choose a viscoelastic multi-zone mattress. It is important that you do not sink too deeply into the mattress, otherwise your spine will bend too much. It is also important that you choose a suitable slatted frame. Stomach sleepers should choose a model with middle zone reinforcement so that the middle of the body is well supported.

Visco mattresses for back sleepers

Lying on your back is the healthiest position for your spine and neck. A suitable mattress is also crucial here, as it supports your body in the important areas and allows other parts of your body to sink in. A viscoelastic mattress is well suited for this sleeping position as it offers a high level of adaptability and high point elasticity. With such a model, the body can sink in comfortably in the pelvic area, but the lighter chest area is supported. This way you avoid developing a hollow back.

Tip: If you have a very restless sleep, i.e. you move a lot in your sleep and constantly change position, you should choose mattresses with two Visco layers.

From H1 to H5: the different degrees of hardness of Visco mattresses

When choosing a suitable Visco mattress, you should also consider the specified degree of firmness, which depends mainly on your body weight. Basically, the higher your weight, the higher the degree of firmness should be. This means that the mattress has good support even when you are heavy. You can find the classification here.

• H1: up to approx. 50 to 60 kg – very soft lying sensation
• H2: up to approx. 70 to 80 kg – soft lying sensation
• H3: up to approx. 100 kg – medium-firm lying sensation
• H4: up to approx. 120 to 130 kg – firm lying sensation
• H5: over 120 to 130 kg – very hard lying sensation

Clean and tidy: 4 care tips for Visco mattresses

Mattresses should last as long as possible. The key to this is caring for and regularly cleaning the sleeping surface. We have put together a few tips here on what you should pay attention to.

1. Wash removable covers from Visco mattresses regularly. Information about the washing program and temperature can be found on the care label or in the product description. You can usually put the covers in the washing machine at 40 or 60 °C .
2. We recommend cleaning every six to twelve months – or more often, for example if you sweat a lot. Use a hygiene rinse to ensure that bacteria are removed.
3. Vacuum the mattress from time to time with the upholstery attachment on your vacuum cleaner. This will remove coarse dirt such as crumbs and dust.
4. If you have enough space, you can also place your mattress near an open window to air it out.

• They relieve the strain on your back and ensure a pressure-free lying experience, as your body weight is evenly distributed across them.
