Foam Encapsulated Zip And Link Beds

Foam encapsulated refers to a type of mattress construction where a layer of foam is used to encase the springs or support core of the mattress. This foam encasement provides additional edge support and helps prevent the mattress from sagging or losing shape over time. Side sleepers, in particular, prefer foam mattresses, as they often do a better job of conforming to the body's shape. People who tend to sleep hot at night may wish to opt for a spring mattress.


The best of both worlds! Zipped together, these beds make a perfect Kingsize or Super Kingsize bed. Unzip them to create two comfortable separate beds! Ideal when sleeping arrangements can change regularly.

Most of our zip and link range is now available for next day delivery.

Zip & Link FAQ's

What Is a Zip And Link Bed?

Zip and link beds are essentially two single beds held in place with central zip connecting the two beds. When required, the bed can be split into two, providing sleeping space for two guests.

What is a zip and link mattress?

A zip and link mattress is a versatile mattress designed for use in beds that can be both separate twin beds or combined to form a larger bed. This type of mattress is particularly popular in hospitality settings, where the flexibility to create different bed configurations is advantageous. Here's how a zip and link mattress works:

  • Two Separate Mattresses: A zip and link mattress is essentially two separate mattresses, usually in twin or single sizes. These mattresses are designed to be joined together when needed.

  • Zipper Connection: The two mattresses are connected using a zipper along one or more sides. This zipper allows them to be securely attached to each other, creating a larger sleeping surface.

  • Flexibility in Bed Configurations: When zipped together, the mattresses form a seamless, larger sleeping area. This configuration is commonly used to create a king-size or super king-size bed. When unzipped, the mattresses can be used as individual twin beds, offering flexibility for different sleeping arrangements.

  • Advantages: Customized Sleeping Preferences: In settings where guests may have different mattress preferences, each person can have their own mattress with varying firmness levels. Ease of Handling: It's often easier to transport and handle two separate mattresses than a single large mattress, especially in spaces with tight staircases or narrow hallways. Versatility: Zip and link mattresses are versatile and can be adjusted based on the specific needs of the user or the setting.

  • Uses in Hospitality: Hotels and Guesthouses: Zip and link mattresses are commonly used in hotels and guesthouses to accommodate different guest preferences. B&Bs and Vacation Rentals. They are also popular in bed and breakfasts or vacation rentals where the ability to configure beds based on guest requirements is valuable.

  • Types of Mattresses: Zip and link mattresses are available in various types, including pocket-sprung, memory foam, latex, or hybrid constructions. The choice of mattress type depends on individual comfort preferences.

It's important to note that when using a zip and link mattress, the bed frame should also be designed to accommodate the two separate mattresses when zipped together. The bed linens, including sheets and mattress protectors, should also be suitable for the joined configuration.

Overall, zip and link mattresses provide a flexible and customizable solution for creating different sleeping arrangements, making them a practical choice in certain settings.

What are the benefits of a zip and link mattress?

A zip and link mattress offers several benefits, making it a versatile and practical choice, especially in hospitality settings. Here are some of the key advantages:

  • Flexibility in Bed Configurations: Versatile Configurations: The ability to zip and link mattresses together provides flexibility in configuring beds. They can be used as two separate twin beds or zipped together to create a larger bed, such as a king-size or super king-size. Adaptability: Useful in settings where the bed configuration needs to be adjusted frequently based on guest preferences or room requirements.

  • Ease of Handling and Transportation: Manoeuvrability: Two separate mattresses are often easier to handle, manoeuvre, and transport than a single large mattress. This is particularly beneficial in spaces with tight staircases or narrow hallways. Handling by Housekeeping: Housekeeping staff can manage and clean individual mattresses more easily.

  • Accommodates Different Guest Preferences: Hotels and Guesthouses: In hospitality settings, guests often have diverse preferences regarding mattress firmness. Zip and link mattresses allow hotels to accommodate varying guest needs. Customizable Beds: Ideal for bed and breakfasts, vacation rentals, or other accommodations where providing customizable beds enhances guest satisfaction.

  • Easy Maintenance: Cleaning and Maintenance: Individual mattresses are easier to clean and maintain compared to one large mattress. This is especially relevant in situations where hygiene is a priority, such as in the hospitality industry.

  • Cost-Effective Solutions: Cost Savings: In situations where different mattresses are needed for varying preferences, purchasing zip and link mattresses can be a cost-effective solution compared to buying multiple complete bed sets.

  • Ease of Set-Up: Installation: Setting up two separate mattresses may be easier than dealing with one large mattress during delivery and installation.

  • Enhanced Guest Satisfaction: Guest Comfort: The ability to cater to individual comfort preferences contributes to enhanced guest satisfaction in hotels and other accommodations.

It's important to note that the benefits of zip and link mattresses are particularly relevant in certain contexts, such as the hospitality industry or situations where flexibility and customization are priorities. The choice of a zip and link mattress depends on specific needs and preferences, and it may not be the optimal solution for all individuals or settings.

Are Zip and Link mattresses comfortable?

The comfort of a zip and link mattress is subjective and can vary based on individual preferences, the quality of the mattresses used, and the overall bed configuration. Here are factors to consider when assessing the comfort of a zip and link mattress:

  • Quality of Mattresses: Mattress Types: Zip and link mattresses come in various types, including pocket-sprung, memory foam, latex, or hybrid constructions. The quality and characteristics of these mattresses will influence comfort. Thickness: The thickness and density of the mattresses can impact the overall comfort and support they provide.

  • Seamless Connection: Zipper Quality: The connection between the two mattresses created by the zipper should be seamless. A well-designed zipper system ensures that users don't feel an uncomfortable seam when the mattresses are joined together.

  • Proper Bed Frame: Support: The bed frame should be suitable for the zip and link configuration, providing proper support when the mattresses are combined. The frame should not create a noticeable gap or uneven surface.

  • Bed Linens: Fit: The bed linens, including sheets and mattress protectors, should be suitable for the joined configuration. Ensure that the linens fit securely and comfortably over both mattresses.

  • Maintenance and Rotation: Regular Rotation: Like any mattress, regular rotation and maintenance are important for ensuring even wear and prolonged comfort. This is especially relevant when dealing with two separate mattresses.

  • Feedback and Reviews: User Experiences: Reading reviews from other users who have purchased the same zip and link mattress can provide insights into comfort levels and potential issues.

  • Durability: Long-Term Comfort: The durability of the mattresses and the overall zip and link system can influence long-term comfort. High-quality materials and construction contribute to sustained comfort over time.

  • Adjustment Period: Adaptation: Users may need an adjustment period to get accustomed to the zip and link configuration, especially if they are used to a traditional single mattress.

Ultimately, the comfort of a zip and link mattress depends on the specific preferences of the individuals using it. Providing the flexibility to customize each side according to personal comfort preferences is a significant advantage, but users should also consider the quality of the mattresses and the overall bed setup.
