Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
Three layer construction:
  • Top Layer: 2" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Smart Comfort Grid™ Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • Middle Layer: 3.5" 1.8 lbs density polyurethane foam
  • Base Layer: 4" 2.0 lbs density polyurethane foam
The Casper Original is good for sleepers of all kinds who want both support and cooling. Three layers of construction:
  • Breathable Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Memory Foam
  • Durable Polyurethane Support Foam.
Comfort Info
Ventilation is the key to sleeping just right - not too hot, and not too cold. Purple achieves the ultimate sleep comfortability by combining a totally new material with a totally unique design. Purple remains temperature-neutral so you don't sleep hot and sweaty at night.
A layer of Airscape™ perforated breathable foam increases airflow and circulates air so you don't get too hot at night.
Support Info
A revolutionary mattress designed for just about everyone. It's designed to not only help you get better sleep, but to soothe joints, release pressure on the hips and shoulders, and support the neck and back. It's designed to make bedtime the highlight of your day!
Premium foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure.
Zoned Support™ provides a layer of memory foam with 3 ergonomic zones to help align your spine and provide more relief.
The durable base is engineered to prevent sinking and sagging while supporting your whole body.
Comfort Specs
Purple's column design allows air to flow freely, preventing moisture trapping, extending the life of the mattress, and providing cleaner, more comfortable sleep. Thanks to the free air flow design and patented polymer materials, Purple naturally sleeps much cooler than memory foam, latex, and other mattress technology.
Stay cool all night with the innovative cooling system. AirScape™:
  • A top layer of perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat.
  • Tiny holes move hot air and body heat away.
Support Specs
The Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ Purple is a pressure-releasing material. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.
Get all-night comfort with the innovative support system. Zoned Support™:
  • 3 zones of targeted support for proper spinal alignment.
  • Softer foam around the shoulders provides more relief to the upper body.
  • Firmer foam under the hips, waist, and lower back helps align your spine.
Fabric Specs
NEW SoftFlex Wave Knit: 29% Viscose, 67% Polyester, 4% Lycra (all +/- 5%). A custom, super-soft knit with tons of stretch so it can flex with both your movement and the Grid's. Its breathable material is also the perfect complement to the Grid's 1,800+ air channels.
Planet-friendly textiles. Up to 57 recycled bottles in each cover.
