Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

Douglas mattresses are made with Canadian-built foams and fabrics. Three layers of high-quality foam:

  • The top 2" comfort layer is made of ecoLight™ cooling gel foam
  • The middle 2" layer is made of Elastex™ foam
  • The bottom 6" support foam isolates movement and provides better edge support
  • The washable cover is made from an eco-friendly Natural Eucalyptus Fabric™.

The Helix Plus is designed for Plus Size and Big & Tall and offers maximum support with a medium feel, it has five layers of construction:

  • Tencel Cover
  • 1.5" Helix Dynamic Foam
  • 1" Gel Memory Foam (Density: 4.0 lb)
  • 1.5" Memory Foam Plus
  • 8" Body Shaped Innersprings with reinforced perimeter
  • 0.5" DuraDense Base Foam.

Support Info

Best-in-class spinal alignment for side sleepers. Balanced support for back sleepers. Pressure-point relief for stomach sleepers.
The Perfect Bounce
Douglas' 3-layer design gives it a superior memory effect with just enough bounce for easy movement during the night.

High bounce Elastex™ transition layer for spring and support
Even motion isolation support foam with enhanced edge support.

The new Helix Plus has higher density foams to match heavier sleepers and provide increased durability. The coil unit has best in-class edge support, so plus size sleepers never feel like they're falling off the mattress. An extra layer of high density, 4 pound foam is included in one of the three foam layers to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs.

Comfort Specs

The comfort layer of Luxury ecoLight™ Cooling Gel Foam is made with a 50% smaller carbon footprint, ecoLight™ cooling gel foam is just as durable, responsive, and luxurious as high density memory foam, but won't retain heat or feel like quicksand.
Premium Elastex™ Foam
As durable, supportive, and responsive as natural Latex foam, Elastex™ is made without any of the harmful, allergy-causing chemicals found in many Latex mattresses.

Our special latex-foam hybrid alternative, designed to be denser to contour to your body.
Uniquely pressure relieving, we use 4 pound Memory Plus Foam - a special, ultra dense and extra durable Helix blend.

Support Specs

Motion Isolation Support Foam
Like millions of tiny pocket-coil springs, Douglas' support foam eliminates motion transfer between sleepers without sacrificing edge support.

Firm Memory Foam provides ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a higher IFD to match your body type. Extra support.
Hundreds of individual taller coils designed to cradle and support heavier weight. Reinforced perimeter to provide edge support.
The bottom foam layer of the mattress provides base support and durability to the entire mattress.

Fabric Specs

Douglas CoolSense™ Cover
A washable cover made with Natural Eucalyptus Fabric™. Inspired by the mountains of Western Canada, the CoolSense™ cover draws moisture away, leading to a cool, dry night.

Each Plus mattress comes with our Ultra Breathable Tencel technology designed to increase airflow and to keep you cool.
