NEST Cushions and Mattresses
NEST Technology is a revolutionary alternative to foam cushions and mattresses. NEST’s 3D interlocking loop structure offers superior breathability, reducing temperature and humidity for enhanced skin microclimate and patient comfort.
NEST offers a durable, washable, and reusable solution for better patient outcomes and long-term savings, making it a reusable solution for community equipment stores and NHS establishments. NEST Cushion also has antimicrobial properties and excellent pressure distribution, ensuring patient safety.
Revolutionary technology - an alternative to foam
NEST technology utilises a 3D interlocking loop structure that can easily be washed and disinfected, and offers excellent all round breathability to support skin microclimate. This innovative support surface delivers excellent pressure distribution, supports patient safety and comfort, whilst providing unparalleled environmental advantages.
By utilising re-usable and 100% recyclable advanced polymer technology, community equipment stores and NHS establishments can reduce recurring expenses associated with purchasing and disposing of foam mattresses/cushions resulting in significant potential long term cost savings.
