icare M3 Medical Mattress – Advanced Pressure Care for High-Risk Users

The icare M3 Medical Mattress is engineered to deliver superior support, comfort, and advanced pressure care for individuals at high risk of pressure injury. Its multi‑layered foam system and specialised surface technologies work together to enhance immersion, redistribute pressure, minimise shear, and promote safer positioning in demanding long‑term care environments. Ideal for home care, hospitals, and aged‑care facilities, the M3 offers a balanced medium‑feel surface that supports both comfort and clinical performance.

At its core, the M3 features a three‑layer foam structure including a firm XP Support base and reinforced sidewalls for stability. A lateral castellated foam inlay improves immersion, reduces roll‑out risk, and promotes consistent pressure relief across the entire mattress surface. The full ActiveFloat™ layer adds highly elastic, breathable responsiveness—moving freely in all directions, even under full compression—to reduce shear forces and enhance comfort from edge to edge.

The mattress is finished with a Zerotec medical cover, offering waterproof protection, breathability, and ease of cleaning. Welded seams and waterfall flaps support fluid management and infection control, while SlideSkin™ anti‑shear technology enables the cover to move with the user, further reducing shear and friction on vulnerable skin.

Built for high‑risk pressure care, the icare M3 delivers an average peak pressure of under 17.4 mmHg, supports a 30–215 kg user weight range, and is designed with a 200 mm mattress height, flip‑free construction, FR‑rated cover, and a 5‑year warranty—ensuring long‑term performance in clinical and high‑demand environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SlideSkin technology and why does it matter for pressure care?

SlideSkin is a dual-membrane design built into the Zerotec cover that allows the outer cover to move independently with the user during repositioning, significantly reducing shear forces on fragile or vulnerable skin. This is particularly important for individuals who are at high risk of skin breakdown in long-term care settings.

What is the peak pressure rating of the icare M3?

The M3 achieves a peak pressure under 17.4 mmHg, indicating a high level of pressure redistribution performance. It is rated for high-risk users and supports weights from 30 kg to 215 kg.

What sizes does the icare M3 Medical Mattress come in?

The M3 is available in long single, king single (2030 x 1070 mm), long double (2030 x 1350 mm), queen, and split queen (2030 x 750 mm per side). The split queen option allows each side of the bed to be managed independently, which is useful in shared care situations.

Is the icare M3 easy to maintain and can it be delivered in New Zealand?

The M3 features a flip-free design, FR-rated Zerotec medical cover with welded seams and waterfall flaps for superior fluid control, and a 200 mm mattress height. It is backed by a 5-year warranty and is available through MoveSmart with delivery across New Zealand.
