Sensaflex 4000 Gel Topped Foam Mattress – Very High Risk

The Sensaflex 4000 Gel Topped Foam Mattress delivers effective comfort, care, and pressure redistribution for very high-risk users. Its sophisticated design works seamlessly with profiling beds in hospitals, nursing homes, care facilities, and hospices.

Made with a section of v-cut memory foam, the mattress encourages airflow and improves pressure-relieving properties. As a result, it actively protects users at very high risk from developing pressure sores.

Gel Topped Foam:

The Sensaflex 4000 features a gel foam top made from viscoelastic foam mixed with gel beads. This combination adds extra support while reducing heat buildup. Unlike standard foam, the gel foam springs back immediately, ensuring full-body contact and even weight distribution. Consequently, users receive consistent support while avoiding pressure point build-up.

Furthermore, its flexible and responsive structure promotes better comfort while still providing strong protection against pressure ulcers. In addition, the gel foam helps regulate body temperature by allowing air to flow through easily. This airflow reduces sweat and moisture, which in turn protects skin integrity.

Supplied with a protective vapour permeable PU cover:

To improve the quality of care, a durable multi-stretch waterproof cover is fitted to the Sensaflex 4000 Gel Topped Foam Mattress. The cover is antimicrobial which helps in reducing bacterial and odour. It is also machine washable to keep your service user’s environment sanitary. The mattress cover is also designed with a white underside to make it easier to identify fluid ingress and strikethrough.
To launder the cover in a washing machine, set the main wash to 65 Degrees Celsius for no less than 10 minutes or 95 Degrees Celsius for no less than 3 minutes. The cover can be tumble dried on low heat and the temperature must not exceed 60 Degrees Celsius. The foam can be autoclaved at 134 Degrees Celsius.
