It has a gentle rippled surface which provides an abundance of air cavities between the surface of the pillow and the net cover. Additional disposable covers are also available. Available in one size.

More Details
The Sleep-Safe pillow will not mould around the face to obstruct the mouth and nose, and will not aggravate breathing problems that are already present.
Application
Can be suitable for people at risk from seizures, convulsions or breathing difficulties.
Cover
Permanent net cover. Disposable covers are also available for an extra cost.
Materials
The pillow is hand made from a special soft, highly porous foam with an open cell structure. This is designed to provide more 'breathability' than ordinary pillows. Hypoallergenic.
Structure
* Profiled Surface
The rippled surface of the Sleep-Safe pillow provides a profusion of air spaces between the surface of the pillow and the net cover. Air can pass more freely over the surface of the pillow even when supporting the weight of a sleeping person's head. This allows air to pass more freely over the surface of the pillow, even when supporting the weight of a sleeping person's head and when used on non porous materials such as incontinence sheets.
* Thru-Channelling
Breathable air ducts formed through the pillow
* Aero-Cavity Construction
A flexible air filled cavity within the pillow.
These features mean that Sleep-Safe is a pillow that allows to pump air from the Aero-Cavity across as a result of head movement. This helps to prevent suffocation.
* Cervi-Shaped
The pillows are subtly shaped to provide gentle support in the cervical spine region. This supports the neck and spine in alignment, helping to maintain uninterrupted breathing.
Maintenance
Cleaning
The Sleep-Safe pillow can be washed and dried in one piece, because the net cover is permanent and doesn't need to be removed.
