Manufacturer's description
The LDCs are constructed from a special laminated polymer sheet and each cell is tested to carry 200 kilograms (420 pounds) before assembly into the mattress. With welded seams, it is estimated that the bursting strength of the cells is at least 300 kilograms (630 pounds).
The specially formulated gel includes a biocide to ensure that no bacterial growth occurs. This safeguard not only ensures that there will be no risk of cross-infection but the gel itself is protected. The gel will not degrade causing lumps to form at some future date.
The cells are designed to allow the gel to flow slowly without causing instability and "bottoming out". The cells provide total support over the maximum available body area thereby lowering the pressure on the skeletal frame and delicate skin tissue. All LDCs are fixed in position inside the mattress to prevent movement of the cells when turning or changing position during rest.
