Brookwood announces the creation of a line of innovative high tech coated and laminated fabrics for the medical industry, including fabrics for:

 
  • Hospital Mattresses
  • Wheelchair Covers
  • Hospital Mattress Covers
  • Blood Pressure Cuffs
  • Pads and Cushions
  • Trauma Suits
  • Hospital Pillow Covers
  • Inflatable Medical Devices
  • Carrying Cases
  • Incontinent Pads and Pants

Brookwood’s advanced coating and laminating technology includes fabrics with soft, low shear properties and excellent fluid resistance and moisture vapor barrier characteristics, which are suited for foam core mattresses. In addition, Brookwood produces a line of both monolithic and microporous coatings and laminations that demonstrate excellent moisture vapor transmission, which are perfectly suited as mattress cover fabrics for air powered, low air loss, continuous airflow and fluid therapy systems. This combination of softness, low shear, breathability and fluid resistance helps to significantly reduce friction and moisture build up, thereby helping to reduce injury to the skin.

Brookwood’s DERMA-PLUSH & DERMA-PLUSH SUPREME fabrics are the latest in a line of innovative fabric developments. Derma-Plush fabrics are super soft, pliable, stretchable fabrics with excellent recovery properties. This stretchable material will significantly reduce “hammocking”, thereby reducing the interface pressure between the mattress surface and the bony prominences of the patient.

Most Brookwood medical fabrics incorporate Ultra-Fresh™. Ultra-Fresh™ is a safe, EPA approved, and durable anti-microbial product that is applied at the time of manufacture. It not only enables material to resist the growth of a wide spectrum of gram (+) and gram (-) bacteria, molds, mildew and fungi, but also provides odor protection, increases hygiene, and reduces staining.

The following fabrics are recommended for Foam Core Mattress Covers:
