Hypoallergenic Zip-Off Cover
A breathable, hypoallergenic cover that unzips in seconds and machine-washes — handy for clearing out the damp, doggy, end-of-trip smell that settles into a shut-up van over a weekend away.
-
Quality Single-Layer Foam Core
One solid slab of proper orthopaedic reflex foam — a single core rather than a stack of layers, which is how we keep the cost low without skimping on what actually holds you up. Firm, level support that won't dip in the middle of a rock-and-roll bed, trip after trip.
Why Choose Essential?
Cheap doesn't have to mean flimsy. The Essential is a genuine orthopaedic mattress built around one firm reflex-foam core that keeps your back properly supported, whether you're parked up for a weekend or living in the van. We use a single quality layer instead of stacking several, and that simplicity is exactly what lets us offer it at the lowest price in the range.
It's light enough to wrestle into a tight rock-and-roll bed or a narrow bunk single-handed, and there are four depths from 12.5 cm up to 25 cm, each at its own price. That strong per-unit value makes it the one converters, hire fleets and dealers come back to when they're fitting out vans in numbers — ask us about bulk pricing.
Ideal for:
- Buyers after firm orthopaedic support without paying premium prices
- Anyone who sleeps best on a firmer, well-anchored surface
- Weekenders and full-time van-lifers alike
- Converters, hire fleets and dealers kitting out vans in bulk (bulk pricing available)
- Anyone needing a made-to-measure depth anywhere from 12.5–25 cm

Measuring Guide
Tell us the exact dimensions and we cut the foam to match; once the cover goes on it adds a touch to the final size.
If your bed slots into a snug recess — as many VW and self-build layouts do — or you want a little slack for tucking sheets in, shave a bit off your figures. It comes down to what you prefer.
