Foam vs. hybrid ? And why not a latex mattress? Are you confused about which mattress technology to choose? One thing is certain: you need a new mattress . So, you're looking for reliable information to understand the difference between these materials.

In 2024, many sleepers are turning to hybrid mattresses for an unparalleled sleeping experience. Combining the best of both worlds—foam and springs—these mattresses offer unique benefits that are attracting more and more people. Here are the three main characteristics shared by people who prefer to choose a hybrid mattress for their sleep.

A mattress that allows the body to release pressure:

Hybrid mattress enthusiasts are often individuals seeking support tailored to their body shape. The combination of foam and springs offers the perfect balance between firmness and flexibility. The springs provide dynamic support by adjusting to the body's contours, while the foam reacts precisely to pressure points, relieving the body as it rests on the mattress. This harmonious combination ensures optimal spinal alignment, providing personalized comfort that adapts to each sleeper.

> for whom? Larger people, couples wanting optimal sleeping independence.


A mattress that breathes:

Ventilation is a major concern for those who prefer hybrid mattresses . The spring structure promotes constant airflow, eliminating heat accumulated during the night. Combined with the breathability of open-cell foam, or convoluted foam, this feature helps maintain thermoregulation for a peaceful sleep. No more stuffy nights—hybrids offer continuous freshness for peaceful dreams.

> For whom? People suffering from heat during the night, restless sleepers, people living in an area where temperatures rise in summer.

A mattress that bounces for dynamic awakenings:

For many, the bounce of a hybrid mattress is synonymous with liveliness and energy. Hybrid mattresses, thanks to their innerspring core, offer a dynamic bounce that provides a certain spring under the body. This is a benefit particularly appreciated by those who like to change positions during the night. The responsive foam complements this bouncy feeling, providing responsive support without sacrificing comfort.

> For whom? Restless sleepers, pregnant women, people who get up 15 times a night to go to the bathroom.


The perfect balance doesn't exist? Yes, and it's called a hybrid mattress : it combines support, breathability, and bounce.
