Our complete guide to the springs and fillings inside a Relyon mattress.
We have put together this guide to help you understand the different upholstery components, springs and materials used in a Relyon mattress. Mattress upholstery is the material that sits between the springs and the top fabric of the mattress. The upholstery in a Relyon mattress is there to provide comfort and support to the sleeper.
The springs in a mattress work to give your body support. There are many different springs used by mattress manufacturers, but Relyon mattresses only use paocket springs.
Each spring moves independently from the other to support different body weights and shapes. This offers a no roll together mattress. Higher spring counts generally offer a more supportive comfort and suit heavier body frames.
A double layer pocket sprung mattress consists of pocket springs that shape perfectly to individual body contours due to each spring having its own independent action. The upper layer of springs shape to the body contours while the lower layer absorbs changes in weight distribution for the ultimate in comfort and support.
A Relyon mattress with hand nested pocket springs means each pocket spring is nested in a honeycomb pattern and hand tied with linen cord. Pocketed springs shape perfectly to individual body contours due to each spring having its own independent action.
