What is Visco? What is visco produced from?

To answer the question of what is visco, visco is a special synthetic material that reacts to the body's heat and weight. It was developed by NASA to reduce the pressure astronauts are exposed to during space travel. Visco is obtained from a combination of polyurethane foam and various chemicals. This material softens with body heat, takes the shape of the body, and distributes the pressure evenly.

Visco, also known as viscoelastic foam, is a high-density, open-celled polyurethane foam. In the production process, various additives and water are added to the polyurethane. This mixture reacts with isocyanate to form foam. The unique feature of Visco is that it is sensitive to heat and pressure. This feature allows the material to perfectly adapt to the body shape and distribute the pressure evenly. We continue to offer comfortable and ergonomic mattress solutions using Visco technology.
