Auping has succeeded in developing the perfect mattress. Its AVS Visco mattress combines the advantages of two mattress types: the feeling of floating that memory foam mattresses are known for and the well-ventilated sleeping offered by the ventilating qualities of Auping’s Active Ventilation Support (AVS).
The unique cell structure of visco-elastic mattresses (memory foam) ensures that contact pressure between mattress and body is low. This eliminates pressure points on the body at night and ensures optimal blood flow. The mattress provides the cocooned feeling that many people like. Memory foam mattresses also have a number of drawbacks: they are warm, ventilate poorly and turning in your sleep requires a deal of effort. Auping has succeeded in using only the advantages of the memory foam mattress, by combining it with the AVS mattress. This Auping AVS mattress is known for its ventilating qualities and has special asymmetrical pocket springs. These are necessary to ensure another condition for a good night’s sleep: a natural body position. Only pocket springs can do this. These special DPPS® pocket springs also make it easy to turn in your sleep, meaning it takes little effort and does not disturb your rest. In its AVS Visco mattress Auping has sought – and found – the optimum balance between contact pressure and the body’s natural position.
Moisture and temperature regulation Another quality of Auping’s AVS mattress is the ventilation provided by the open structure of its design. This open structure is also a feature of the AVS Visco mattress, which allows good moisture and temperature regulation. Auping uses premium quality memory foam with ventilating qualities. Additionally, the mattress and its sides feature 3D knitwear for optimum ventilation. Hygiene has likewise been taken into account. The ticking can be removed for washing. It also uses materials that ensure that perspiration moisture is easily absorbed and quickly evaporates. Bacteria or house dust mites cannot live in it. A well-ventilated sleep is accordingly guaranteed. And that is essential: the Elsevier Sleep survey of August 2007 shows that 94% of people consider ventilation to be important in a bed, and the score for hygiene is as high as 95%.
Two models Auping offers consumer a choice of two models of the AVS Visco mattress: the AVS Vivo Visco and the AVS Cresto Visco. They differ in their spring and memory foam content. The AVS Vivo Visco has high springs and a comfort layer of premium quality and ventilating memory foam. The AVS Cresto Visco has a memory foam comfort layer that is also ventilating but to a lesser extent than the Vivo Visco.
