Cloud Nine beds are made from speciality foam (multi-layered Viscous Elastic and Polyurethane foam). They are made to the highest quality standards and undergo exacting quality control tests. Cloud Nine mattresses are great for back sufferers as they ensure stable spinal support. A Cloud Nine mattress is non-toxic, hygienic and allergy free. There are no moving parts which means zero motion transfer between sleeping partners, and they have no rigid components in the mattress that could cause pressure points. Cloud Nine is a wholly South African owned company that recently celebrated its 50th Anniversary. The Brand is endorsed by the Chiropractic Association of South Africa and approved by the South African Bureau of Standards. All Cloud Nine sets from Bedworld are sold with the genuine upholstered Cloud Nine Universal Base. We do not compromise the quality of your bed by combining your Cloud Nine mattress with an inferior base.
