Cushions: know the types and learn to choose the best model

The pillow makes a difference in the quality of your sleep: a wrong choice can lead to the famous “bad sleep”, causing pain, fatigue and even harmful to health in general. According to Camila Shammah, Camesa’s product manager, certain factors such as the type of material it is made of and the height make the difference to maintain the posture necessary for well-being and quality of life. Discover below the different types of materials and their characteristics:

latex foam pillow

The main feature of this type of pillow is the perforated foam, which promotes air circulation and keeps the temperature always pleasant. “The latex differential are the holes along the piece, which allow air to circulate and do not heat up during the night. It is solid and supports the weight of the head well, as well as returning to its original shape quickly after the person is tornata up The rubber, present in the garment, is also ideal for those who usually sleep on their side “, explains Camila.

Viscoelastic foam cushion

With moldable, heat-sensitive foam that adapts to the contour and temperature of the head, the option helps with blood circulation and is one of the most popular on the market. “It is very suitable for those who need total relaxation and for those with spinal problems. It is able to adapt to the curves and posture of the body and provides the right density for a good night’s sleep,” says the manager.

foam flake pillow

Made with regular foam cut into flakes, this is a softer and smoother model. “It has a space between the pieces of foam, which makes the product more malleable for those who move little during the night. On the other hand it is to be avoided for allergic people, because over time the material flakes and can affect health” he says.

microfiber pillow

Composed of a light and flexible material, this option generates comfort for those who do not want denser and heavier materials. “Microfiber, also known as polyester, is a great option for those who travel and love or need to carry the garment, as it combines lightness and comfort in one product,” he explains.

Foam cushion with springs

Although not very well known, among the types of pillows it is the most recommended for allergy sufferers. “Because it has anti-mite, fungal and bacterial defenses, the product is ideal for people who live in more humid areas. Furthermore, it does not deform due to use, as the surface is more solid due to the springs,” he concludes.
