IQFitFlex offer flame resistance technology while reducing pressure points in mattress
May 8, 2024

Precision Textiles’ IQFitFlex fabric offers cutting edge flame resistance for mattress applications. The cutting-edge FR solution fabric also maximizes sleeping comfort by helping to reduce pressure points for consumers, regardless of their sleep style. The product made its debut at the International Sleep Products Association (ISPA) Expo in March. Addressing the future of sleep technology IQFIT FLEX takes compliance and comfort to the next level. This innovative solution, a stalwart in mattress protection, continues to uphold the highest standards in safeguarding against fire while simultaneously enhancing sleep performance. Unlike traditional FR sock designs, the new IQFIT FLEX underscores Precision Textiles’ dedication to helping its customers produce mattresses with better sleeping comfort. “As we enter into Better Sleep Month, it’s imperative to acknowledge that sleep is not a luxury but a fundamental necessity for overall well-being,” said Bob O’Connell, executive vice president marketing and merchandising at Precision Textiles. “This month presents an invaluable opportunity for mattress manufacturers and bedding retailers to unite in a collective effort to prioritize better sleep habits. With IQFIT FLEX, we’re empowering manufacturers to replicate more exacting feels with their cores designs while helping the consumer attain a more restorative night’s rest.” The versatile material can be transformed into a variety of FR solution products, including traditional FR socks, open width formats for lamination to mattress fabrics, or with the company’s patent pending NOSO Sock design. The NOSO Sock stands out for its ability to streamline the assembly process, reduce costs and increase throughput by eliminating the need for traditional sewing, stapling or gluing techniques. In addition, test data conducted by an independent testing organization demonstrates that IQFIT FLEX FR sock reflects improved comfort and enhanced sleep performance through greater sleep surface contact and pressure point reduction versus a traditional FR Sock design. The patent pending IQFIT FLEX is sustainably sourced and is also USDA Bio-Preferred® certified and is ideal option for premium mattress collections along with mattress designs that are used with adjustable bed bases. O’Connell added, “Together, these certifications provide our customers and consumers with assurance that Precision Textiles’ products are made responsibly, with a focus on environmental sustainability, health and safety. This alignment with consumer values helps to build trust and loyalty among environmentally and socially conscious shoppers.”
