Brentwood Is Choosing Gel Foam Mattresses for Better Sleep

What Are Gel Foam Mattresses?

A gel foam mattress is a type of memory foam bed that includes gel beads or gel-infused layers in the foam. These gels help dissipate heat and add a cooling element to the otherwise heat-retaining properties of traditional memory foam.

In a standard mattress, heat can become trapped as the foam molds to your body. Gel foam solves this by creating airflow and drawing heat away from your body for a more comfortable sleep especially in warmer climates like Brentwood.

How Gel Foam Differs from Traditional Memory Foam

While both types offer contouring and support, gel foam has a key advantage: Temperature regulation.

Feature	Gel Foam	Traditional Memory Foam
Cooling Ability	Excellent	Poor
Responsiveness	Medium	Medium
Contouring	Excellent	Excellent
Heat Retention	Low	High
