The elastic and conforming response of a softer spring is much more supportive to the human body than the firm and overly stiff support of the floor. It is very important to understand that ‘softness’ and ‘firmness’ are an entirely separate metric and only loosely related to support. Elastic materials rebound/bounce back to their original shape effortlessly, providing proper support from head to toe, and not just the heaviest parts of the body.Elastic materials conform better to the complex shape of the human body.Your mattress should be constructed of highly elastic materials for these three very simple reasons: The Mattress & Sleep Company curates its line of mattresses based on the ‘elastic bed principle’. These innovations make large-scale spring manufacturing easy, yet this method will never rival the quality of a hand-arranged honeycomb nested Marshall coil. Steel springs used in mattresses have evolved over time, with most design changes intended to aide mass production.
The Marshall coil continues to be improved by Vispring to this very day. Vispring to this day is the world’s pre-eminent builder of the finest luxury mattresses. After starting the Marshall mattress company in Toronto, James Marshall returned to England and created Marshall mattress of England, which would later become Vispring. The Marshall spring was a true game-changing invention for mattresses, ahead of its time in 1900. This allows the coils to move independently and to operate without gaps in the support system. Called the Marshall spring, the first mattress coil system was-even by today’s standards-very advanced: the coils are individually wrapped in fabric, and arranged by hand in a honeycomb nested pattern. The first coil system developed specifically for use in a mattress was invented by British-Canadian James Marshall. Bonnell springs are only found in the most basic of mattresses today. Bonnell springs are very bouncy as they are joined together by use of steel lacing wires which connect the springs at the top and bottom. The use of steel springs in mattresses also greatly increases air circulation which dramatically improves hygiene drier mattresses stay much cleaner over years of regular use, reducing bacteria and dust mite accumulation over time.īonnell springs, which were adapted from carriage seats, were the original spring system used in mattresses. This memory or spring is called elasticity and it is what provides support to us in a coil mattress. When steel wire is wound into the shape of a coil its elasticity is greatly enhanced, allowing the coil to be compressed and to spring back into shape a nearly limitless number of times with little degradation in performance. Steel is a remarkable material which is incredibly elastic.
Steel springs have been an integral part of mattress construction since their introduction at the end of the 1800’s.
