what does fiberglass look like on mattress

1.Mattress Features   

   Most of the popular mattress styles on the market are spring mattresses, which are characterized by good elasticity, durability, good support, not easy to break, deform or collapse, and can be better supported according to the natural physiological curve of the human body.Most of the popular mattress styles on the market are spring mattresses, which are characterized by good elasticity, durability, good support, not easy to break, deform or collapse, and can be better supported according to the natural physiological curve of the human body.

2.The inner structure of the mattress

The inner structure of mattresses, such as boxed and hybrid mattresses, often includes materials that promote heat dissipation, cushioning softness, and better body support. Mattresses also need to meet specific fire-retardant standards to ensure they can resist and withstand continuous exposure to open flames.

3.Regulations on flame retardant mattresses

Established in 2007, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission requires all mattresses to contain enough flame retardant to resist being ignited by a two-foot-wide blowtorch flame for at least 70 seconds. One of the most common materials used to meet this requirement is fiberglass, a glass-reinforced plastic. Fiberglass is inexpensive and also avoids the use of flame retardant chemicals.

   The use of fiberglass as an inexpensive flame retardant for products is not new. It is found in all kinds of furniture, rugs, drapes, and home insulation. Its materials are woven together to create a protective layer that protects the more flammable properties of the mattress. So fiberglass mats are also becoming more and more popular。

4. Advantages and disadvantages of fiberglass mattress

   Pros:

  High coverage distribution, the best disadvantage of choosing a mattress is air permeability. Of course, it must be brushed natural latex, that is, glass fiber, which is easy to collapse and deform.

  Containing negative ions, the important feature is that the fragrance it emits makes many silky mosquitoes reluctant to approach.

  It is an environmentally friendly reinforcing material that is healthier for the human body

  Dispros:

   Debris can escape from the mattress, exposing people to the material.

   Since fiberglass tends to shatter and shed, smaller pieces may fray from the weave, float into the air and be inhaled.
