Why CRIB5?
Occupational therapists and care home managers consistently specify orthopaedic mattresses for residents with restricted mobility — a firmer surface makes it easier to push up to a seated position, facilitates assisted transfers, and maintains better spinal alignment during extended bed rest. CRIB5 certification ensures full fire safety compliance is maintained without clinical compromise, with documentation available for CQC inspections, care quality audits, and local authority fire safety reviews.

What is the warranty? 1-year manufacturer warranty. Rotate head-to-toe monthly during the first year for even wear of the orthopaedic construction.
How do I care for an orthopaedic mattress? Rotate head-to-toe monthly for even wear. Use a mattress protector to preserve the surface fabric. Spot clean with mild detergent. Do not fold or bend during handling.
How does the Tulip Ortho compare to a standard orthopaedic contract mattress? Standard orthopaedic contract mattresses provide firm support at entry-level price.
