BODYGUARD® Scores Twice:
Two Levels of Firmness in One Mattress

A softer or firmer bed in one and the same mattress – just turn it over!

There are a lot of misunder­standings concerning the degree of firmness. Manu­facturers often give weight recom­mendations and couple them to the firmness. While there is a DIN standard for mattress firmness, this is not legally binding, and not even 25% of all manu­facturers observe this standard in their labelling. All BODYGUARD® Mattresses offer precise degrees of firmness in accordance with DIN EN 1957.

⁃ Every BODYGUARD® Mattress has two levels of firmness.

⁃ Depending on which side you use, your bed is softer or firmer. If you want a different level of firm­ness, simply turn the mattress over.

⁃ The BODYGUARD® Anti-Cartel-Mattress has a medium firm and a firmer side.

⁃ The BODYGUARD® Anti-Cartel-Mattress Soft has a soft side and a slightly firmer side.

How Can I Tell Which Side is Firmer or Softer?

With the BODYGUARD® Anti-Cartel-Mattress

There are two ways to tell what level of firmness you are lying on:

A medium-firm BODYGUARD® mattress with an open cover. The mattress core is visible with the different firmness levels in different colours: dark at the top, light at the bottom. Text: medium-firm.
A medium-firm BODYGUARD® mattress with open cover. The mattress core with the different coloured firmness levels is visible: light at the top, dark at the bottom. Text: firmer. Enlarged mattress handle with upside-down BODYGUARD lettering.

1. Legibility of the BODYGUARD® logo on the side straps
The logo with the word ‘BODYGUARD’ is on the black straps on the mattress sides of the cover. If this logo is right-side up and legible, you are lying on the medium firm side. Do you want a firmer mattress? Simply turn the mattress over. If the ‘BODYGUARD’ logo is located at the head-end, you are lying on the firmer side. Do you want a softer mattress? Simply turn the mattress over.

2. Colour of the mattress core
Open the all-round zipper on the mattress cover and take a look at the mattress core. The mattress core of the BODYGUARD® Mattress consists of a dark upper side and a light lower side. The dark side of the mattress is the medium firm side. The light mattress side is firmer.

Which Degree of Firmness is Right for Me?

The most important thing with a mattress is that the spine be optimally supported in every sleeping position. The BODYGUARD® Anti-Cartel-Mattress is one of those rare mattresses that is well suited to all common body shapes. Regard­less whether you sleep in a back or side position, whether you are short, light, tall or heavy. We there­fore do not provide a weight-based recom­mendation for the degree of firmness. All body shapes sleep well on the BODYGUARD® Anti-Cartel-Mattress. Merely decide for yourself: do you prefer a firmer or a softer bed?

The Level of Firmness is a Personal Decision

Do you prefer lying really soft or do you like to sleep firmer? The level of firmness is a matter of your personal taste. A good mattress supports you ergonomically regardless of your body weight or lying position – whether it is soft or firm.
