A seat cushion pad is provided that includes a base with an array of coiled springs positioned on an upper surface of the base. A machine spun fiber foam layer rests on top of the array of coiled springs with a high-density foam sidewall surrounding the array of coiled springs and resting on the top surface of the base. An upper base layer made of high density foam rests on the sidewall with a pliable and elastic low density polyurethane foam layer pad on top of the upper base layer. A material cover encloses the high-density foam sidewall, the upper base layer, and the low density polyurethane foam layer pad.

There is described a pressure redistribution mattress comprising an inner support structure housing a pressure redistribution assembly including a plurality of air cells connected by means of a pressure redistribution system. The air cells are spaced apart from one another to form gaps between the air cells and the gaps are filled with supporting spacers formed of an open-structured, non-foam supportive material consisting of a three-dimensional elastic arrangement of polymer filaments allowing circulation of air and moisture.

A comfort item (200) has a first volume (202) delimited by an outer boundary, where the first volume (202) includes several foam pieces (100). The foam pieces have a body part (101); several foam arms (102) having a first end and a second end, where the first end is attached to the body part (101), and the second end protrudes away from the body part (101); and several contour recesses (103) between the foam arms (102), wherein the width of the foam arms is greater that the length of the foam arms. Several foam filling elements for such a comfort item are also described. As a result, a comfort item is obtained with a filling providing good filling properties and adding air to the comfort item.

Methods of maintaining or restoring joint function in a canine in need thereof by allowing the canine to lie on a pad are provided. The pad includes one or more layers of a spacer textile, where the spacer textile includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and a plurality of spacer fibers therebetween. The one or more layers of a spacer textile, when in contact with a joint of a canine, provides an upward force attenuation onto the joint.
