Commercial Mattresses – Foam or Sprung?

When looking for suitable commercial mattresses for your guests, you want to invest in mattresses that are not only comfortable for your visitors but will last you for years to come. But with so many different mattresses out there, it can be difficult to know which one is best for housing your visitors. Especially when it comes to foam or sprung. If you can’t make your mind up, keep reading on to find out all the pros and cons of foam and sprung mattresses for your hostel or hotel.

Foam mattresses

Foam mattresses get their support and bounce from trapped air within aerated substances. They can be made from various types of foam and come in multiple price ranges.

Pros of foam mattresses

Contract foam mattresses are known for conforming well to the human body. They’re regarded as being exceptionally comfortable, soft and snug while still offering support. People who sleep on their sides tend to like these types of mattresses as it provides strong pressure relief in problem areas.

Memory foam mattresses are known for their motion isolation, making them great for couples to share in hopes of not disturbing each other.

Cons of foam mattresses

When commercial grade foam mattresses are first purchased, some people notice that they release an unpleasant odour after initially being set up. This only lasts for a couple of days but can still act as a deterrent for hotels and hostels requiring a short turnaround time.

Foam mattresses can also cause visitors to feel hot when sleeping as they tend to trap body heat. This can result in an uncomfortable night of sleep for your guests.

Sprung mattresses

Hostel sprung mattresses are made with numerous metal springs and coils to provide a layer of support to guests. They also have layers of soft, plush material to enhance overall comfort. They are generally regarded as being the more traditional contract mattress for hospitality establishments.

Pros of sprung mattresses

Sprung mattresses are known for being responsive with lots of bounce and are great at providing support for people who suffer from back problems. While they come in various price ranges, sprung mattresses tend to be an affordable option for hotels and hostels.

Sprung mattresses are also a better option for heavier people who need a more solid and supportive structure to sleep on and provide airflow for a cooler night of slumber.

Cons of sprung mattresses

Unlike foam mattresses, sprung mattresses transfer motion, making small movements noticeable to people sharing a bed. They can also be a bit noisy and are prone to sagging over time, especially when a high-quality mattress isn’t used.
