Medline Advantage-FB
1700 Mattress Meets the Complete Range of Full-Scale Fire Tests.
Viscoelastic memory foam is the standard
for comfort and durability. Our Advantage-FB 1700 Visco features an
anatomically zoned design, which allows the mattress to cushion bony
prominences with incredibly low interface pressures. Two inches of
viscoelastic foam (four inches in the heel!) provides outstanding comfort
and pressure reduction. A sculpted center layer adds air channels designed
to allow horizontal airflow and reduce moisture and heat buildup.
Beginning July 1, 2007, all mattresses must
comply with the new Standard for the Flammability of Mattress Sets (16 CFR
Part 1633). Additionally, NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, Joint Commission and
CMS requirements can demand compliance with ASTM E 1590.
Medline's Advantage-FB mattresses with
INTEGRITY30 fire barrier fabric are certified to meet full-scale testing,
including CAL TB 603, CAL TB 129, ASTM E 1590, BFD IX-11 and 16 CFR Part
1633. All foam components used in Medline mattresses featured on this page
meet or exceed CAL TB 117. In addition, all mattresses featured pass the
"cigarette test" (16 CFR Part 1632). It is each facility's
responsibility to determine compliance requirements for their mattress
purchases.
