Overview:
The Forte Zephair Mattress combines alternating air therapy with supportive foam for those at high risk of pressure injuries. This hybrid system provides reliable pressure care, enhanced stability and quiet operation for use across home and facility environments.
Description
The Forte Zephair Mattress is a powered hybrid system designed to reduce pressure injury risk while enhancing comfort and function. It features a 22-cell alternating air support system combined with a stable foam foundation, delivering consistent support with minimal surface disturbance.
A key strength of the Zephair is its silent, ergonomic pump – allowing therapy without disrupting rest or routines. The firm foam base and reinforced side walls create edge stability, supporting safe transfers and daily mobility.
The Super Shear inner cover is designed to reduce internal shear and friction during repositioning, while the breathable Airoform surface layer promotes ventilation and helps manage the skin microclimate.
Additional features like a 5° heel pressure relief zone and anti-shear compartmentalisation reflect the mattress’s clinical focus on safety, compliance and user dignity.
The durable outer cover – handcrafted using antimicrobial, chemical-resistant materials – meets rigorous cleaning and hygiene standards.
The Zephair is trusted by both home and residential facilities to support people with complex care needs.
