LGA Certification is administered by TÜV Rheinland AG, a global provider of technical, safety, and certification services with headquarters in Cologne, Germany. The test checks the compliance of the mattress with the DIN EN 1957 standard. DIN EN 1957 standard deals with functional performance for domestic mattress use.
The test is conducted by putting a 1400 N (roughly 150 Kilos) force on the mattress and stroking the mattress 60,000 times. This test is meant to simulate, more than adequately, the average domestic bed usage.
The above test is conducted to rate the mattress in four categories:
- Change in the height of the mattress
- Change in hardness of the mattress after 30,000 strokes
- Change in hardness of the mattress after the test
- Change in the resilience factor of the mattress
The test is graded on a scale of 0-100, with 25 points allocated to each category above.
Per the standard, a mattress should score 50 points to pass the certification, 70 points to quality for increased quality certification and 80 points for enhanced quality.
The mattress core used in Sunday Latex Plus Mattress has scored 99 points! Our mattress complies with this test to objectively assess the quality of the bed to the end user. We are the country's first brand to pass these certifications.
