Which mattresses are better - Ormatek or Askona?

The high-quality orthopedic mattress allows you to achieve maximum comfort during your night's sleep. Therefore, the choice of this accessory must be taken quite seriously. There are many mattress manufacturing companies nowadays. Among them, the most famous are the domestic firms Ormatek and Askona. Consumers are often faced with the question of choosing between these two brands. To find the most suitable mattress, it is worth comparing their characteristics.

Ormatek and Askona are the largest domestic manufacturers of various sleep products, including mattresses. The assortment includes mattresses of different types and categories, there are springless and spring models. There is an opportunity to choose a product of convenient sizes with natural or artificial fillers.

Ormatek has existed since 2001, Askona has been operating even longer. She started her business in 1990. Both companies have received recognition not only in Russia, but also abroad. The companies' products are exported to many countries, such as the Czech Republic, Ukraine, Finland, Poland, Serbia and others.

At the factories of the Askona company, a new proprietary development is used - the HourGlass technology, the author of which is a team of specialists led by a scientist from the USA T. Wells. Its essence lies in the fact that the products use springs of a special shape. These springs are hourglass-like in appearance.Due to this unusual shape, the compression ratio of the springs is in direct proportion to the load being tested. That is, when a heavy person lays down on the mattress, the degree of compression will be maximum, while with an insignificant load, the compression will be minimal. Therefore, regardless of the weight of the sleeping person, he will be provided with the maximum possible comfort during a night's sleep.

Ormatek has developed its own spring unit called Titan. When creating this spring block, the calculation was primarily for significant loads. For the production of springs, a special reinforced wire is used. It was chosen for this purpose due to its increased strength, resilience and durability.

In the production process, high-tech equipment is used, which makes it possible to produce high quality products.

If we compare these manufacturers in terms of product quality, then they are practically on the same level, and it is difficult to decide which company has the best mattresses. Everyone chooses a mattress model for themselves, considering their other parameters.

When choosing an orthopedic mattress, you need to pay attention to many characteristics, do not be limited solely to quality. Since the products of both companies have established themselves as high quality products, other factors are also very important and should be compared.

Companies provide their clients a very wide range of products.

Both manufacturers produce products for people of different ages, starting with products for newborns. We also produce specialized mattresses for children of different ages.

Eco-mattresses are a new direction in the production of sleep accessories. Such products satisfy the needs of any, even the most demanding customer.

There are fewer such models in the assortment of Askona. Moreover, its lineup is very extensive. The most popular lines include several types of products.

• Cascade - the most rigid mattresses due to the use of particularly rigid springs and coir coir in the products. The best option for people with spinal diseases.

• Record - thanks to the use of an independent block of springs, the orthopedic mattress has the ability to perfectly adapt to the peculiarities of the physique of each person.

• Favorite - orthopedic product, has triple-zoned springs, which are separated by means of autonomous covers.

In terms of their appearance, the products of both companies are not very different. These mattresses have a simple, laconic shape. And also special mattress covers are offered for the main products. They can be made from different materials and colors. Usually these are white, beige, milky and other light shades. The preference for such colors is explained by the fact that the mattress topper should not show through the bed linen. It is made from special hypoallergenic materials (for example, periotec); knitted fabric is most often used as a cover.

Product sizes vary by model. But in both companies they are standard:

• mattresses for newborns;

• children;

• teenage;

• single;

• one and a half;

• double;

• non-standard.

In modern orthopedic mattresses, various materials are used as fillers. Moreover, in both companies, they are practically the same. However, in the assortment of Askona there are no models where horsehair is the filler.

Various raw materials are currently used as fillers.

• Coconut slab (coir) is 100% natural material. Gives the product the necessary rigidity, but at the same time does not crumble at all. It is made from coconut fibers, which are impregnated with natural latex and molded into tiles of the required size.

• Horsehair from horses of the Ariejoise breed is a durable, wear-resistant, natural material. Mattresses with such filling are characterized by a high degree of rigidity.

• Natural latex is an antibacterial material with significant resilience and elasticity. The porous material created from the sap of the Hevea tree is obtained through the processes of vulcanization, as well as foaming.

• Ormafoam Is a foamy artificial substance with hypoallergenic properties. Its characteristics are very similar to natural latex.

• Hollcon - is a hollow siliconized fiber with the ability to quickly regain its previous shape.

• Bicokos is a combined substance created by combining coconut coir and special high-volume fiber. Supports continuous moisture exchange well.

• Sisal - this is a natural material, it can be obtained from agave, it is tear-resistant, it allows air to pass through perfectly. To make the sisal fibers more durable, they are impregnated with a latex compound.

• OrmaGel - a gel substance that is a stable polymer. This material has a cooling effect, it does not harden, does not form lumps.

• Memorix - an artificial modern heat-sensitive material that has a memory effect. Perfectly repeats the shape of the human body.

The products of the factories Ormatek and Askona are distinguished by a rather long period of operation. The minimum warranty period is 18 months, but Askona's extended manufacturer's warranty is 35 years, while Ormatek offers its own warranty for up to 25 years. In this case, it is necessary to purchase a special protective mattress cover along with the orthopedic mattress.

Choosing between these two manufacturers is difficult because they both share the same strengths:

• use of the latest technologies in the production process;

• orthopedic characteristics of products;

• a wide assortment that can satisfy the needs of buyers of various weight and age categories;

• the use of exclusively safe materials, which is confirmed by the necessary certificates;

• affordability, since both manufacturers operate in Russia.

However, some Askona models are superior in quality to Ormatek mattresses, which is why they are purchased more often. It is important to pay attention to the price category - there are budget models with good characteristics everywhere.

When a person decides to purchase an orthopedic mattress, in most cases the choice is made in favor of one of the companies: Ormatek or Askona. This is due to the fact that these two brands are the most popular among buyers.

Buyers say that it is undesirable to constantly sit on the mattress, as this leads to uneven wear, damage to the springs, and the fillers get lost. The mattress is designed for sleeping and this is how it should be used. Children should not be allowed to jump on the bed.

According to customer reviews, orthopedic mattresses of both brands have excellent performance characteristics and a long, trouble-free service life. They do not deform or bend.

The companies Ormatek and Askona act as strong competitors, the popularity of which has been earned by many years of work and the production of high quality products. It is important to make a choice not by the name of the manufacturer, but in accordance with the characteristics of the product and the preferences of the potential buyer.
