Solid vs. Shredded Memory Foam Pillows—what’s the difference?
While there are a wide variety of shapes, styles, materials and unique features available in the foam pillow market, most fall within one of two primary types—solid foam and shredded foam.
- Solid foam pillows—also commonly known as molded or contoured foam pillows—are engineered to be the ideal shape and support level for specific sleeping positions. Because the majority of people sleep on their side or back, many of our contoured and layered foam pillows are designed to suit both types of sleepers. To switch from back sleeper height to side sleeper height and vice versa, simply rotate the pillow. Typically, the higher side will be most comfortable for side sleepers
- Unlike solid foam, which is designed to ensure the given shape is maintained, a shredded memory foam pillow is flexible and ‘squishable.’ This makes shredded foam a popular choice for people who shift positions frequently, or hold onto or wrap their arms around their pillow. Additionally, shredded foam is more breathable than solid foam, making it a smart choice for hot sleepers.
