Amerisleep Mattress Materials & Design
Amerisleep AS3 is a 12-inch, all-foam mattress made with an exclusive, eco-friendly Bio-Pur® foam layer and HIVE™ foam layer for zoned support. As a CertiPUR-US® brand, Amerisleep’s foams are free from dangerous levels of chemicals that are harmful to human health, like heavy metals, formaldehyde and ozone depletors.
Here’s a peek at what an Amerisleep mattress is made of:
The Top Layer:
Wrapping the mattress is a cover made from a breathable cotton-polyester blend. This material promotes additional airflow around the body to enhance breathability. The cover zips off and is machine washable for easy spot-cleaning.
The Middle Layers:
In the middle, two distinct layers make up the comfort system of the Amerisleep AS3 mattress.
The top comfort layer is three inches of Bio-Pur®, an open-cell memory foam that’s more breathable and responsive than traditional memory foam. Bio-Pur® is produced from partially plant-based sources using a zero-emission process, making it the most eco-friendly material of its kind. It’s designed to contour the body and relieve pain at common pressure points like the hips and shoulders. Bonus: Bio-Pur® foam is resistant to dust mites, mold and mildew, too.
Next up is Amerisleep’s two-inch HIVE® layer, a transitional layer of zoned polyfoam. This layer features hundreds of foam hexagons grouped into five distinct comfort zones: Head and neck, shoulders and upper back, hips and lower back, upper legs and knees, and feet. The HIVE® layer delivers extra support to the head, back and legs, while cushioning the shoulders and hips for proper spinal alignment.
The Bottom Layer:
At the base, a seven-inch layer of durable polyfoam makes up the support layer, providing additional stability to the layers above.
