The process of cleaning a visco-elastic foam overlay designed for placement on a bed is a necessary aspect of maintaining a hygienic sleep environment. This process involves a series of steps to remove accumulated dust, allergens, and body oils from the foam material without causing damage to its structural integrity.
Regular cleaning extends the lifespan of the overlay, prevents the build-up of allergens which can negatively impact sleep quality, and mitigates the development of unpleasant odors. Adherence to manufacturer guidelines and the use of gentle cleaning agents are crucial for preserving the comfort and support characteristics of the foam.
