Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
The Emma Hybrid Original mattress is meticulously engineered to combine cutting-edge materials for an unparalleled sleep experience. Here’s a detailed look at its layers: * Top Cover: Made from breathable, moisture-wicking fabric, it regulates temperature and keeps the surface cool and fresh. This removable and washable cover makes maintenance easy. * Airgocell Foam Layer: The top comfort layer features Emma’s proprietary Airgocell foam, which adapts to your body’s contours while promoting airflow. This ensures a cool and comfortable sleep environment. * Memory Foam Layer: Beneath the Airgocell foam is a viscoelastic memory foam layer. It provides exceptional pressure relief by distributing weight evenly and reducing stress on pressure points. * HRX Foam Base with Zoned Support: The foundation is a durable HRX foam base that features advanced zoning. This offers targeted support to key areas like the shoulders, hips, and lower back, promoting optimal spinal alignment. * 3-Zone Pocket Springs: Integrated into the base layer are individual pocket springs, which provide dynamic support and minimize motion transfer for uninterrupted sleep. This carefully curated combination of layers ensures the Emma Hybrid Original mattress is as supportive as it is comfortable, catering to a wide range of sleepers.
The Emma Original, designed by sleep experts, is UK's most awarded, best-selling mattress. The layers are:
  • UltraDry™ Original Cover
  • Point Elastic Airgocell® Memory Foam
  • Halo Memory Foam™
  • HRX Supreme™ Foam.
Comfort Info
The Emma Hybrid Original mattress is crafted to provide a perfect blend of softness and responsiveness, ensuring a restful night’s sleep for all types of sleepers. The advanced foam technology and pocket springs work together to deliver: * Pressure Relief: The memory foam contours perfectly to your body, relieving stress on key pressure points like hips, shoulders, and lower back. * Adaptive Comfort: The mattress adjusts to your sleeping position, offering consistent support whether you sleep on your side, back, or stomach. * Breathable Sleep Surface: The Airgocell® foam promotes airflow, keeping the surface cool and fresh even on warmer nights.
The breathable Airgocell® foam allows for optimal ventilation due to its open pores. In tandem with the cover, these layers ensures a completely pleasant sleeping climate - even on the hottest summer nights.
Support Info
Support is at the heart of the Emma Hybrid Original mattress, ensuring proper alignment and long-term sleep health. The combination of springs and foam provides: * Targeted Spinal Support: The HRX foam base includes zones specifically designed to support heavier areas like the hips and lighter areas like the shoulders. * Dynamic Stability: The individually wrapped pocket springs offer tailored support by adapting to your body’s unique weight distribution. * Motion Isolation: The combination of memory foam and springs absorbs motion, so you won’t feel your partner’s movements during the night.
By combining three layers of pressure relieving foam with different structures, an optimal pressure distribution is achieved. This creates ideal conditions for a restful sleep, because only then can your body regenerate overnight.
Comfort Specs
The Emma Hybrid Original Mattress features layers specifically designed to maximize comfort: * Airgocell Foam Layer: This innovative foam adapts to your body while enhancing airflow, creating a cool and supportive sleeping surface. * Pressure-Relieving Memory Foam: Positioned below the Airgocell foam, this layer delivers exceptional contouring and cradles your body for unparalleled comfort. * Breathable Mattress Cover: Made from temperature-regulating fabric, the top cover enhances breathability and ensures a clean, hypoallergenic sleep environment. Each layer has been engineered with precision to enhance comfort and improve the overall sleep experience.
Point Elastic Airgocell®

Support Specs
The supportive structure of the Emma Hybrid Original mattress includes: * Zoned HRX Foam Base: The high-resilience foam provides long-lasting durability while supporting key pressure zones for optimal spinal alignment. * Individually Pocketed Springs: These springs work independently to reduce motion transfer and provide precise, adaptive support. This expertly designed support system ensures you wake up refreshed and free from aches and stiffness, no matter your sleeping position.
Halo Memory Foam™

Key features include: * Removable and Washable Design: The cover can be easily unzipped and machine-washed, making it simple to maintain cleanliness. * Temperature Regulation: The fabric is engineered to allow airflow, preventing overheating during the night. * Hypoallergenic Properties: Perfect for sleepers with sensitivities, the cover resists allergens and dust mites.
