• About Foam

  Some explanations about foam...

• Visco elastic foam?

  Viscoelastic foam is a «slow recovery» foam. During compression, the foam progressively conforms to the shape of the body, and after the weight is removed, the foam slowly reassumes its initial shape. It also reacts to body temperature and ambient temperatures, softening with heat and more easily adjusting to body contours.
