Industry supplier Leggett & Platt has introduced VertiCoil Edge, an open, offset alternating coil innerspring that is part of its VertiCoil family of innerspring units.
Unveiled at ISPA EXPO 2010 in Charlotte, N.C., in March, the new unit has a re–engineered coil that is lighter yet stronger, the company said. It also has 21% more coils than a typical innerspring.
VertiCoil Edge is configured for improved perimeter consistency to ensure uniform firmness across the entire mattress.
“We recently conducted research to better understand consumers and we’re using that information to drive product innovation,” said Mark Quinn, group executive vice president of marketing for L&P’s Bedding Group. “Both innovation and quality of sleep are important to consumers and we’ve met those needs in our creation of VertiCoil Edge.”
