Comfort
Being too hot at night is an absolute no-no for great sleep. That’s why we designed our fantastic Simbatex foam; it’s an ‘open cell’ foam, which allows thirty times the airflow of memory foam (that’s almost breezy for a bed).
Nectar’s 25 cm thick medium hybrid memory foam mattress combines all the comforting benefits of the Nectar memory foam mattress with a layer of springs giving the best of both worlds.
Support
You’ll find up to 1,500 of these ingenious springs nestling in our essential mattresses; each individual Aerocoil® spring flexes gently in response to you and your partner’s movements, offering personalised support to each of you without disturbing the other.
The micro-springs enhance breathability and facilitate localized movement on the mattress, promoting disruption-free natural changes in position.
