When you purchase an Axel Bloom Bed System, you rest well knowing that your bed has been made using the highest manufacturing standards. Our manufacturer and suppliers have been certifi ed by many of the most respected European quality standards authorities, and have met stringent requirements for environmental safety.

The materials we use are selected because of their superior performance for sleep. Healthy sleep is achieved through stressless body support and constant airflow for body temperature comfort. In addition, moisture wick-ing materials foster a clean, hygienic environment to minimize odors, and prevent dust mites and bacterial growth.

The following list of materials and quality standards are representative of Axel Bloom's commitment to the latest advanced technologies for our products.       



Quality Standards

Oeko-Tex Standard 100

Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a globally uniform ecological safety test for textile products, performed by independent labs around the world. This scientific safety evaluation provides an objective analysis of pollutants of concern to human health and provides scientifically based upper bound values. Only textiles which meet strict safety standards receive the "Confidence in Textiles" seal of quality.  

Medically Tested Label

Products with this logo have been rigorously tested to the highest standards of modern chemical analysis and guaranteed to be biocompatible. This means that the product contains no skin irritants or prohibited pollutants, and in no way causes damage to body or health. The basis of this demanding test is the toughest known skin-tolerance standard, originally developed as a method of testing medical devices.   

LGA QualiTest GS Safety Test

The LGA GS (Geprüfte Sicherheit- Safety Tested) seal is found on safety certified products that are periodically monitored by the independent company LGA Qualitest GmbH. LGA monitors our products and facilities for ergonomic design, quality control, environmental protection, industrial safety management systems, strict pollution/ contaminate controls, and service friendliness.    

Austria Quality Label

The Austria Quality Seal is a distinctive mark that is only awarded to Austrian companies which undergo continuous quality monitoring of their products and services, guaranteeing local quality. Quality Austria is the leading Austrian certification and evaluation partner in the fi elds of quality, environmental and safety management according to standards that are most important worldwide.   

CertiPUR® Foam Standard

CertiPUR® is a voluntary standard to advance the safety, health and environmental (SHE) performance of flexible polyurethane foams used in bedding and upholstered furniture. Manufacturers who comply with CertiPUR®'s far-ranging, but clear and objective SHE standards are prohibited from the use of certain substances in the manufacture of foam, taking into account existing standards and scientific studies. Compliance is subject to audit by an independent laboratory and satisfactory results of random spot checks.  

EIM Ergo-Test

Products with the EIM Ergo-Test label are the result of close cooperation with the "Ergonomics Institute Munich," which studies the biomechanical needs of beds using scientific testing methods. The most important discovery of ergonomic research at the Institute has been to distinguish the ideal point-bending elasticity and combined elastic properties for proper reclining support in all body zones. These elastic properties allow for the optimal cradling of the spine and relief of the pressure points. The EIM Ergo-Test label gives you the security of knowing that your mattress is designed for ergonomically correct comfort.  

 

Quality Materials

Tencel Mattress and Pillow Covers

Tencel is an all-natural high-tech silky nano-fiber from natural renewable wood pulp, made using a particularly environmentally friendly manufacturing process. Tencel has an ultra-soft, smooth texture and outstanding moisture management for dry sleep. This skin-friendly, breathable and easy to maintain material has a high strength and is thus especially suitable for mattress and pillow covers. Tencel wicks away moisture from the skin and transports it rapidly to the surface to evaporate. It is made by extracting the wood pulp of the Eucalyptus tree which itself has superior anti-bacterial properties. The wood pulp is enhanced with lycocell technology to create a hypoallergenic, breathable and moisture wicking sleep surface. To read more about the unique characteristics of Tencel, click here.   

Smoothness across the board. A comparison of the fiber surfaces makes the difference patently obvious. TENCEL® fiber has a smoother and more supple surface than wool or cotton. Wool tends to have a scaly surface, while cotton is irregular and rough.    

Latex Mattresses

Our mattresses contain an optimized mix of natural latex and synthetic latex, for a durable, stable and comfortable sleeping environment. Natural latex is made from the sap of the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis. The high point-elasticity of natural latex makes it very suitable for making mattresses with good body adjustment and excellent reclining comfort. Synthetic latex increases the longevity and comfort of the mattress. Latex is antibacterial, breathable and absolutely hygienic.    

Kaltschaum - Cold Foam Mattresses

Cold Foam (Kaltschaum) has an irregular cell structure that exhibits inherent high elasticity and good air circulation, making it an ideal material for a comfortable, resilient mattress. The antibacterial and hypo allergenic Kaltschaum allows unimpeded air circulation. The cell walls of the foam are opened by crushing rollers, resulting in a porous, flexible nuclear structure with high air permeability. This material acts as a natural fire barrier without the use of noxious chemicals. Pure water vapor is used as the propellant for manufacture and the mattress is therefore odorless. Using CFC-free production creates environmentally safe foam that can be recycled.     

Berlin Hybrid Mattresses with Individual Micro-Springs

In the Berlin hybrid mattress, technology and advanced foam are integrated to make a robust yet yielding and breathable structure. It is our most complicated and thickest mattress, and was designed for the German market. In the center of the mattress, individual cylinder springs are inserted into small cloth pouches and sewn at their contact points. By eliminating contact between individual springs, even the slightest noise is eliminated. The point elastic suspension allows each spring to flex independently and perfectly adapt to individual body shape, providing a high level of comfort and support. The spring core is surrounded by a high-quality, ridged cold foam pad with cool, high-airflow properties to guarantee a perfect sleeping climate.      

Mattresses with Visco Foam

Originally designed for use in the U.S. space program, Visco Foam has proven to be well suited for medical applications as well as mattress and pillow production. The visco elastic material reacts to body heat and pressure with an accurate body contour adjustment. This leads to signifi cantly improved blood flow throughout the body, especially in the shoulders, back, hips and arms. Due to this excellent heat and moisture exchange, Visco foam reduces the need for frequent change of the reclining position and promotes restful sleep behavior.       

Mattress Covers Infused with Aloe Vera

The medicinal plant Aloe Vera is a type of lily whose properties have been used for many years in cosmetic and medical applications. The regenerating effect of this plant is also effective in mattresses materials. Aloe Vera infused materials feel smooth and comfortable, and are hypo allergenic. This particularly benefits those with allergies and sensitive skin. Wellness fibers infused with Aloe Vera support the nocturnal regeneration of the skin, promote the production of young skin cells during sleep and make a valuable contribution to the revitalization of body and soul.
