The springs are joined together at the top and bottom by spiral wires to form the spring system. In this system, all the springs are interconnected and because the springs are interconnected, it can cause more motion disturbance to you when sleeping. Mattresses that use bonnel spring tend to feel more bouncy and are more affordable. ##### **INDIVIDUAL BARREL SHAPE POCKET SPRING** Individual pocket springs are barrel shaped and each spring is placed into a woven pocket. The springs are laid out in a grid to form an individual pocket spring system. In this system, each spring is free to move independently as it is not connected to its neighbouring spring. This means that the weight placed on one spring does not affect the surrounding springs and this helps to minimise motion disturbance when sleeping. Our collections have two types of individual pocket spring systems: Normal Individual Pocket Spring This is the most common spring design in the market where all the springs are the same height. When you lay on a normal individual pocked springs, you will be able to feel the firmness of the [mattress](https://www.prestige-affairs.com/collections/mattress-singapore "mattress") immediately. High and Low Individual Pocket Spring Using state of the art manufacturing technology, the springs of identical height are sealed in their individual pockets at alternating heights to provide the optimal comfort level with just the right amount of firmness. On the first touch, the mattress will feel soft but once you lay down, you will feel the gentle support and firmness of the mattress.

Memory foam is known for reducing pressure points and relieving pain.  Memory foam mattresses will usually feel more cosy as the foam molds to the contours of your body. It also absorbs movement and helps to minimise motion disturbance. _(Featured on [Magic Koil Shangri La Mattress](http://www.prestige-affairs.com/collections/mattress/products/magic-koil-shangri-la-mattress) and [Magic Koil Energise Mattress](https://www.prestige-affairs.com/products/magic-koil-energise-hybrid-mattress "Magic Koil Energise Memory Foam Latex Hybrid Mattress"))_ ##### **NATURAL LATEX** Natural latex provides a firm and bouncy support that is uniform throughout the bed. It provides comfort that is similar to memory foam, but unlike memory foam, the natural latex pushes back, providing a firmer support. Natural latex mattresses are cooling and help to regulate temperature, providing you with the most comfortable sleeping experience without compromising on support. _(Featured on [Magic Koil Pristine Mattress](http://www.prestige-affairs.com/collections/mattress/products/magic-koil-pristine-mattress), and [Magic Koil Energise Mattress](https://www.prestige-affairs.com/products/magic-koil-energise-hybrid-mattress "Magic Koil Energise Memory Foam Natural Latex Mattress"))_ ##### **COLD CURE FOAM** Cold cure foam is also known as moulded synthetic latex. Cold cure foam is a dense and hard-wearing foam that has excellent resilience to flattening, and if able to keep its shape and support much longer and better than other types of foam. A unique property of cold cure foam is that it has a layer of ‘skin’ that prevents air from escaping, giving the mattress structure, which helps to keep its shape even after heavy use. ##### **POLYURETHANE FOAM** Foam based mattresses are suitable for those who want all round comfort without compromising on support. The softness of the foam provides pressure relief and allows the spine to align to its natural position. (Featured on [Magic Koil Ortho+ Mattress](http://www.prestige-affairs.com/collections/mattress/products/magic-koil-ortho-mattress "Magic Koil Ortho+ Mattress")) ##### **REBOND FOAM** Rebond Foam is made from shredded foam that undergoes a gluing process, forming a solid piece of foam. It is very dense and provides a firm support base that is able to withstand heavy use while maintaining longevity.  ### **MATTRESS FABRIC** ##### **POLYESTER FABRIC** Polyester is a preferred choice for those who are looking for a no-frills fabric as a mattress cover.  ##### **DAMASK FABRIC** Damask fabric is easily identified by its threaded, slightly shiny appearance, and slightly rough texture. Damask is a very durable fabric and has been used as a mattress cover for many years. ##### **KNITTED FABRIC** Knitted fabric is a newer fabric in the market that is thick, soft, slightly stretchable, and breathable. Our collections have four types of knitted fabric: Normal Knitted Fabric This fabric is hypo-allergenic and anti-dustmite. Mosquito Repellent Knitted Fabric This fabric is hypo-allergenic, anti-dustmite, anti-bacterial.

It keeps a permanent air layer under your body while also maintaining pressure reliving properties, resulting in a more relaxed sleep. The air layer enables active ventilation. With each small movement, the air is circulated under the body, distributing the heat throughout the bed and significantly enhancing ventilation. It keeps you cool in summer, warm in winter and dry throughout the year. Nanobionic biofunctional technology has been built into the Cairfull fabric. Nanobionic is a ceramic-infused coating applied onto fabrics that enables the conversion of body heat into far infrared rays. Far infrared rays encourages better blood circulation and thermoregulation within the body. The outcome is an improved state of well-being, reduction in appearance of cellulite, and better quality of sleep. Did we also mention that Nanobionic helps to combat free radicals?

A foam encasement can provide additional sleeping area on the mattress and helps to reduce the chance of mattress edge sink (typically caused by sitting on the edge of the mattress) over a period of time. ##### **PILLOW TOP / PLUSH TOP / EURO TOP** Pillow tops, plush tops, and euro tops provide an additional upholstery layer at the top of the mattress, over the support system of the mattress for plush comfort. This additional layer can be made from polyurethane foam, natural latex, and memory foam. --- > Source: [Prestige Affairs Furniture](www.prestige-affairs.com/pages/how-to-choose-a-mattress)
