Soy-based foam for mattresses

One of the largest mattress manufacturers in the United States i.e. Denver Mattress has announced that it uses between 2.54cm (one inch) and 7.62cm (three inches) of soybean oil- based foam for the quilted top layer of nearly all of its mattresses. This soybean oil based  foam namely BioFlex™ Hybrid foam is produced by Flexible foam Products, Inc. by using a patented process called EnviroFlex technology and Cargill BiOH® soy-based polyol that replace a portion of the petroleum products used in BioFlex™ Hybrid Foam.According to Flexible Foam products, Inc., BioFlex boasts equal, if not better, performance in several standard measurements for furniture-grade foams, including support factor ratio; tensile, tear and elongation strength; height loss; and indentation force deflection, compared with petrochemical-based foams.
