What is a Spring Mattress?

Spring Mattresses are popular mattresses that are made of spring enclosed in fabric. Also known as coil mattresses, spring mattresses are strong, long-lasting, and providing excellent support, which makes them a favorite for people of all sleeping styles and requirements. They are especially beneficial for those with a heavy weight or back pain issues. The spring gives the mattress bounce and the desired level of support. While the coils work to provide support, spring mattresses also feature a comfort layer which is made up of the protector, center upholstery, and Quilt.

What is the Design of Spring Mattresses?

As mentioned before, spring mattresses feature a layer of coils at the center that provide support and bounce, while defining its structure. The springs are characterized by a changing density across the mattresses line with the desired level of support. Not all spring mattresses are made equal as they vary when it comes to aspects such as the type of spring, gauge (thickness) of the springs, the number of springs, and the way they link to each other. The spring layer is wrapped in a foam layer that features three segments:

● Insulator, made of fiber or mesh, maintains the core of the mattress in place.

● Middle upholstery is a layer of foam or fiber pads.

● Quilt is the third and outer fabric layer, which determines the feel of the mattress.

There are two types of spring mattresses, which are Pocket Spring mattresses and Bonnell Spring mattresses.
