HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE DENSITY OF MEMORY FOAM MATTRESS
Memory foam is polyurethane with additional chemicals increasing its viscosity and density. It is often referred to as "viscoelastic" polyurethane foam, or low-resilience polyurethane foam (see LRPu). Higher-density memory foam softens in reaction to body heat, allowing it to mold to a warm body in a few minutes. Faster speed of recovery of a foam to its original shape after a weight is removed is sometimes claimed as an advantage by memory-foam mattress producers, who may talk of "newer generation" foams with "faster recovery.
A memory foam mattress is usually denser than other foam mattresses, making it both more supportive and heavier. Memory foam mattresses are often sold for higher prices than traditional mattresses. Memory foam used in mattresses is commonly manufactured in densities ranging from less than 1.5 lb/ft3 to 8 lb/ft3 density.
The density of a memory foam means the weight of the foam within mattresses. Foam density is calculated by Indention Force Deflection and is measured by kg per metre cube (kg/m3). If the IFD is higher in memory foam, it will be more firm and supportive to your body’s pressure points. Many people have a misconception that the density of memory foam mattress is linked to the durability of a mattress, which is not true. The durability of a high quality memory foam mattress has no link with the density. The choice of different densities is to accommodate people with different weights with the same level of firmness and support. Picking the right memory foam mattress can be quite difficult and confusing due to the high number of different types of memory foam mattresses. We hope to help you understand variations in the density of memory foam mattresses and their respective qualities.We try simply the various types available to ensure you choose the right density of memory foam mattress.
Generally,there're three different levels of memory foam densities including low density, medium density and high density. Let’s check each level mentioned above to understand them better.
1.) First Type----Low-density Memory Foam
The Low-density memory foam is usually is below 40kg/m3 and has its own benefits. The very first advantage of low density memory foam is its affordability factor. Many people do not go for memory foam mattresses due to the fact that they can be quite expensive but low density memory foam mattress is available at a very reasonable price. Low density memory foam mattress does wonders when you lie down on it, with temperature controlled technology the mattress ensures that you are at an ideal body temperature for a relaxing and soothing night’s sleep. The softness level of low density foam is much higher as compared to mattresses with higher densities. As low density foam is thin it is not suitable for people who are overweight. Low density memory foam mattresses are ideal if you are slim.

2.) Second Type----Medium-density memory foam
The Medium-density memory foam mattresses are around 40 to 80kg/m3. These types of mattresses have a higher density of foam making them an overall better quality mattress. This density level is most commonly used by memory foam users. Medium density memory foam mattresses are renowned for their comfort and mid-range support. Medium density memory foam mattresses are not as soft as low density mattresses but its softness level is quite popular among consumers. As far as its price is concerned, medium density memory foam mattresses are not that expensive but are slightly more expensive than low density memory foam mattresses. They offer ideal support for normal to medium weighted people.

3.) Third Type----High-density memory foam
The High-density memory foam mattresses have an average above 80kg/m3 of high-density foam and are renowned for their superior quality. High density memory foam mattresses are unbeatable in terms of their comfort and support and are ideal for people with back pain. If you are suffering from back problems or experience muscle pain while sleeping, then high density foam mattresses will provide outstanding comfort and support as they contain pressure relieving technology. High density memory foam is comparatively expensive and not within the budget of every consumer. These types of mattresses are ideal if you are overweight or of a stocky build.
