Has anyone heard of or tried the bioposture?
I can’t find much about them so I’ll call them today
Also - back to the latex - testing doesn’t seem 100% accurate for the more serious allergy , mostly I worry about the smell being a problem for sinuses etc. Would getting a latex pillow be a good test ?
Hi Ari,
Bioposture hasn’t been mentioned here before. The founder is Irwin Pearl, who lists the company as “a marketer of hi-tech sleep solutions to the health care sector”. Tom Williams is the President. They were also supposed to roll out another online company called Organica but that doesn’t seem to have happened and that web site redirects to Bioposture’s web site. Their backgrounds are not in the mattress industry. Their mailing address is a UPS store in Long Beach, NY. They’re affiliated with RV Winkle.
Aside from all of that, there is little meaningful information about the mattress on their web site, which seems to be very interested in cultivating relationships and referrals of those in the health care industry. The mattress uses a polyfoam core (unknown density), a memory foam layer (3-4lb per the web site) and a polyfoam upper layer (unknown density). They speak quite a bit about using Celliant in all of their products. You can read a little more about how it works here.
Needless to say, I wouldn’t begin to consider this product without knowledge of the material inside.
