Kinds of mattress

Comfortable, supportive and pressure-relieving - the quality and material of a mattress significantly determine our sleeping comfort and therefore also our nightly regeneration. It is therefore important to sleep on a mattress that is adapted to your personal and individual needs and corresponds to your subjective lying sensation.

Which type of mattress is the best?

There is a large selection of mattress types. But at billerbeck, your sleep experts, you can always keep track of the extensive range of mattresses. Here you can find out all about the different types of mattress and which mattress is best suited to whom. You can also buy the perfect mattress for you online.

Important criteria when choosing a mattress:

  • Mattress core
  • Mattress size
  • Body weight
  • Support / pressure relief
  • Firmness level
  • Good moisture management
  • Good air circulation / breathability
  • Suitable for dust mite allergy sufferers
  • Heat retention
  • Lying zones
  • Cover material


Natural latex mattress

A mattress with a core made of natural latex is certainly the most natural and sustainable type of mattress, as natural latex is a 100% renewable raw material. A mattress core made of natural latex has an open and large-pored cell structure, which gives the natural latex mattress high point elasticity and incredible softness. Nevertheless, the natural latex mattress provides optimum pressure relief and support. The open pores also ensure excellent breathability, as the air can circulate freely in the mattress. Moisture and heat are thus optimally absorbed and also dissipated again, creating a dry and extremely pleasant sleeping climate. The cozy lying comfort on a natural latex mattress is unique and can hardly be compared with any other type of mattress.

Memory foam mattress

A memory foam mattress consists of thermoelastic high-tech foam. This foam has an open-pored cell structure that reacts to pressure and body heat and thus adapts perfectly to the contours of the body. As a result, memory foam mattresses have exceptional point elasticity and provide excellent support at the same time. A visco foam mattress usually consists of a highly elastic cold foam core with memory foam panels on both sides. A special surface profile gives memory foam mattresses several ergonomic lying zones in which the different areas of the body are optimally supported. Memory foam mattresses guarantee incredibly pleasant and cozy sleeping comfort, are suitable for people with dust mite allergies and are equally suitable for stomach sleepers, back sleepers and side sleepers. Their ability to store heat is of particular interest to anyone who gets cold easily at night.

Barrel pocket spring core mattress

The pocket spring mattress is the queen of spring mattresses. Inside are hundreds to thousands of barrel-shaped bed springs, which are individually sewn into small fabric bags. Each of these barrel pocket springs can react individually to pressure, which gives the barrel pocket spring core mattress excellent point elasticity and exceptional flexibility. The lying comfort on a barrel pocket spring mattress is springy and extremely comfortable. Several ergonomic lying zones provide even more comfort, optimally supporting the body and relieving pressure. An additional mattress cover made of cold foam reinforces the positive properties of this particularly elaborately crafted spring core mattress. Barrel pocket spring core mattresses are also breathable, moisture-regulating and temperature-regulating, ensuring a dry, comfortable and well-tempered sleeping atmosphere at all times.

Cold foam mattress

Cold foam mattresses consist of a highly elastic foam, also known as HR foam (high resilient). A cold foam mattress has an open cell structure, which makes this type of mattress particularly point-elastic and pressure-relieving. A cold foam mattress core adapts perfectly to the body and provides optimum support. In addition, cold foam mattresses are breathable, suitable for dust mite allergy sufferers, hard-wearing and durable. Thanks to their special properties, cold foam mattresses are suitable for all types of sleepers. Whether you are a stomach sleeper, side sleeper, back sleeper, active or quiet sleeper, everyone will find a comfortable, cozy and always ergonomically correct sleeping comfort on a cold foam mattress. Compared to other types of mattress, mattresses with a cold foam core are lightweight. This makes it easier to turn and turn over the cold foam mattress, which can be used on both sides.

Comfort foam mattress

A comfort foam mattress impresses with its excellent point elasticity, its extraordinary support and its comfortable lying comfort. Like the cold foam mattress, the comfort foam mattress has a core of foamed polyurethane with an open-pored cell structure. The large pores of the comfort foam ensure excellent breathability and outstanding moisture management for this type of mattress. Thanks to the special surface profile with a wave-like structure, the comfort foam mattress adapts perfectly to the body. Additional comfort is provided by different ergonomic lying zones, which are specially designed to meet the needs of the respective regions of the body. Comfort foam mattresses are also suitable for people who perspire easily at night, as the special structure of the mattress core is excellent at dissipating heat and moisture.
