Aeris Plus
Two in One, Complete Care
Aeris Plus combines static pressure redistribution and powered alternating air therapy in one Australian-made mattress. Step care up or down as needs change, without replacing the support surface.
Foam-filled air cells and an Airoform™ Memory interface support immersion and a familiar foam-like feel. Reinforced edges assist transfers, while the quiet pump offers straightforward comfort control.

Product features
Advanced alternating air system
14 foam-filled alternating air cells and an additional three-cell static head section combine comfort with a 1:2 alternating cycle.
Heel pressure transfer zone
A 5° heel slope transfers load from the foot end. Foldable foam offloading cradles the heels, with alternation continuing through the heel zone.
Anti-shear inner layer
A low-friction interface absorbs movement during repositioning and bed adjustment. The multi-compartment design reduces stiffness and strain on soft tissues.
Immersion and envelopment
Zoned foam and air cells contour to the body. Airoform™ Memory foam and a four-way stretch cover support immersion without hammocking.
Reinforced perimeter support
A supportive edge assists ingress, egress and repositioning, helping users maintain mobility and stability during transfers.

Australian made and stocked
Manufactured in Armidale, with standard sizes stocked and made-to-measure options available for different bed frames.
Principles of pressure care
Pressure redistribution
- Zoned foam and air cells contour for even weight distribution.
- Powered mode alternates pressure beneath the body.
Shear & friction reduction
- The anti-friction inner cover absorbs movement forces.
- A four-way stretch external cover reduces shear stress on the skin.
Repositioning & mobility
- Foam-filled cells provide a stable base for transfers.
- Reinforced perimeter support assists edge sitting and repositioning.
- Step-up/step-down operation supports static and alternating care.
Microclimate management
- The breathable cover and Airoform™ interface help manage heat and moisture.
- Air movement during powered alternation supports microclimate control.

Technical information
Clinical pressure mapping
Pressure mapping uses an 81 kg RESNA/NPIAP 50th percentile male mannequin with emphasised bony prominences, excluding the influence of soft tissue. The image shows pressure distribution under the stated test conditions.
