Silentnight Geltex Range

What does Geltex mean?

Geltex is a type of gel foam that's specific to Silentnight. Geltex is made by combining gel beads, air-filled cells and foam. This is added to a mattress to create a supportive and comfortable layer.

Geltex mattresses are Silentnight’s unique take on a gel foam mattress.

How is Geltex different from memory foam?

Geltex and memory foam are both made from viscoelastic foam, but Geltex is infused with gel beads during the process.

There are two main ways in which Geltex and memory foam mattresses are different:

• Temperature regulation

Geltex mattresses often feel cooler than memory foam because the air-filled cells allow for greater airflow. Memory foam, on the other hand, absorbs the heat of your body to help it mould to your body shape. Some of this heat can be retained.

• Bounce back rate

Compared to memory foam, Geltex bounces back to its original shape much faster than memory foam. This helps the Geltex layer respond to your body weight as you sleep, providing a more reactive support.

Is Geltex a good mattress?

Yes, Silentnight Geltex mattresses are great, especially if you change sleeping positions a lot in the night.

Geltex is specifically designed to actively respond to your shifting body and shape as you sleep. This provides targeted support all night long, no matter how much you move in your sleep.

What are the benefits of Geltex mattresses?

The three main benefits of Geltex mattresses are:

• Cooler and fresher night’s sleep

Due to the open air cell structure of Geltex, more air is able to flow around your mattress. This helps to regulate your body temperature as you sleep.

• Responsive support for all sleeping positions

As we mentioned above, Geltex is extremely responsive and durable, which is perfect if you change your sleeping position a lot at night.

• Pressure relief exactly where you need it most

Geltex mattresses provide targeted support for the heaviest parts of your body, which helps to relieve pressure from your hips and back.

Silentnight Mirapocket 1000 Geltex Pillow Top Limited Edition Mattress:

“I've never slept so well. After a couple of nights of use the mattress seemed to adapt itself intelligently to my ideal sleep position and firmness, and has stayed that way. The only problem is not wanting to get up in the morning.”

Are Geltex mattresses hot?

Geltex mattresses are much cooler than other types of memory foam and foam mattresses. Airpockets within the Geltex layer allow for increased air flow, which keeps your mattress feeling cool and fresh all night.

If you get quite warm in your sleep, a Geltex mattress may help you to feel cooler. However, the temperature of the mattress may still rise due to the heat from your body.
