HSM introduces CoolACTIVE™ Transitional Foams

Furniture World News Desk on 1/19/2015


HSM, the global manufacturer of components and provider of integrated solutions to the transportation, furniture, bedding and a growing number of diversified markets, announced the introduction of CoolACTIVE™ transitional foams for the bedding industry.

Designed with innovative foam technology, CoolACTIVE foam is a phase change material (PCM) foam that incorporates active regulating particles to cool and diffuse body heat throughout the night. The new foam is available in three variations: CoolACTIVE is a functionally modified Viscoelastic Memory Foam that contains PCM particles for heat dissipation and offers 25 percent heat transference; CoolACTIVE Gel combines BiOH™ Gel particles and PCM particles for 35 percent thermal transference; and CoolACTIVE GraphX2 is a deluxe modified Viscoelastic Memory Foam that combines graphite particles and PCM particles for 40 percent thermal transference and flame retardant performance.

“The choice of three transitional foams gives customers the opportunity to create a custom temperature combination using a single foam or layered system,” said Todd Councilman, vice president of HSM bedding solutions. “To meet a variety of customer requirements, the foam is available in block, topper, slit roll, bed build and completed mattresses.”
