Sensaflex 1000 Foam Mattress – High Risk

The Sensaflex 1000 is a cost-effective, high-risk foam mattress designed to deliver reliable pressure care. It uses castellated foam to redistribute pressure, enhance airflow, and improve user comfort. As a result, it helps reduce the risk of skin damage and pressure ulcers in hospitals, nursing homes, care facilities, and hospices.

Castellated Foam

Castellated foam mattresses are designed for both function and comfort. The foam moves in independent sections, which works in unison with profiling beds. This movement helps reduce friction and pressure points. Additionally, the castellation creates airflow pockets to cool the user, reducing the risk of sweat and moisture build-up.

Protective Vapour-Permeable PU Cover

The mattress comes with a durable, multi-stretch waterproof cover to improve care quality. The cover is antimicrobial, reducing bacteria and odours. It is also machine washable to maintain a sanitary environment. A white underside makes it easy to spot fluid ingress or strikethrough.

Washing Instructions:

• Machine wash at 65°C for at least 10 minutes or 95°C for at least 3 minutes.

• Tumble dry on low heat, not exceeding 60°C.

• The foam itself can be autoclaved at 134°C.
