What Is TEMPUR® Material?
TEMPUR® pressure-relieving material is a breakthrough in sleep technology that will forever change the way you sleep. The original formula was developed in the early 1970s at NASA's Ames Research Center in an effort to relieve astronauts of the incredible g-force experienced during lift-off. Fagerdala World Foams of Sweden spent almost a decade and millions of dollars researching and experimenting with the NASA material before discovering a way to produce a consistent and durable product.
The cellular structure of the TEMPUR® pressure-relieving material is wholly
unique. It's made up of billions of high density, viscoelastic, memory cells. The cells are spherical with windows, and the key is:
they're temperature sensitive. In warm areas, they get softer and
more pliable. In cooler areas, they remain firm. The cells will literally shift position and reorganize to conform to your body contours. The cells shift so
that you don't have to. The high density of TEMPUR® pressure-relieving material makes the
Tempur-Pedic® Swedish Mattress™ so durable that it's backed by an incredible 20-year limited warranty. Imagine a mattress that's firm where you need it and soft where you want it. It's like having a mattress custom designed to fit your body.
As you can see from the illustration, the TEMPUR® material distributes your weight evenly, eliminating "peaks" or pressure points that may cause pain and tossing and turning. Conventional mattresses exhibit unhealthy amounts of pressure that may cause pain, stiffness, and restless sleep.
 
Features of TEMPUR® Material
- Temperature & Weight Sensitive - TEMPUR® material reacts to your body temperature and weight to conform exactly to every curve
and angle of your body. By reacting to a very specific range of temperatures, the material becomes soft where you want it and firm where you
need it, supporting your body in perfect alignment.
- Energy Absorbing - TEMPUR® material absorbs motion for deep, sound sleep.
- Maintenance Free - No flipping, rotating or turning required! The permanent memory of TEMPUR® material allows it to
return to its original shape time after time.
- Pressure Redistribution & Relief - TEMPUR® material absorbs and redistributes your body weight across the entire surface area to
relieve painful pressure points, reduce tossing and turning, and improve circulation.
- Unique - The formula for the TEMPUR® material is a trade secret known by only a few individuals. Competitors have tried to copy the
TEMPUR® material, but they have never succeeded. The genuine TEMPUR® material is made using a proprietary formula and manufacturing process, and
it's used exclusively in Tempur-Pedic™ brand products.
- Recognizable - Tempur-Pedic™ is the #1 brand for premium mattresses, thanks to overwhelming consumer recognition and support. Tempur-Pedic™ has the only mattresses overlays
recognized by NASA and certified by the Space Foundation. Tempur-Pedic™ mattresses recommended by over 25,000 medical professionals worldwide; they have earned the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, the Consumers Digest Best Buy award, and the prestigious Ease-of-Use
Commendation by the Arthritis Foundation.
