Layer Details
BioFresh™ cover
The BioFresh™ cover, powered by HEiQ technology, continuously breaks up allergens. That means a fresher sleep surface, which is helpful if you're prone to sniffles or dust sensitivity.
FusionAir™ foam layer
The FusionAir™ foam layer's open cell construction encourages air circulation. In practice, heat can escape rather than gathering around you, so warm sleepers should find it a little more comfortable through the night.
HRXComfort™ foam layer
The HRXComfort™ foam layer lets you snuggle in without sinking down. You get that cushioned, hugged feeling on the surface while still being able to change position easily.
AeroFlex™ pocket springs
AeroFlex™ pocket springs distribute weight evenly for balanced support with pressure relief. Because each spring moves independently, heavier areas like your hips are supported without the whole surface dipping.
HRXSupport™ foam layer
The HRXSupport™ foam base is precision-engineered and guaranteed to keep its shape for 10 years. It anchors everything above it, which means the mattress should resist sagging over time.

Key benefits
- A 3ft footprint that leaves the room usable: At 90cm wide, this mattress fits alongside a desk, wardrobe and toy storage, so a child's bedroom stays a room rather than just a bed.
- Medium soft comfort for lighter bodies: Children and teens weigh less than adults, and the softer HRXComfort™ layer gives them cushioning a firmer hybrid might never let them feel.
- An allergen-fighting cover for young sleepers: The BioFresh™ cover continuously breaks up allergens, a genuine help if your child is prone to dust sensitivity or seasonal sniffles.
- Cool enough for a small room: The FusionAir™ foam's open cell structure lets heat escape, useful in compact bedrooms and loft conversions that warm up quickly in summer.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm duvet fit, the most widely stocked and affordable bedding of any UK size.
- Pocket spring support in a guest-friendly size: The AeroFlex™ springs spread weight evenly, so occasional guests of different builds all get proper support from the same spare room bed.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child or teenager and want a mattress that will still support them as they grow, you sleep alone in a compact room, a student flat or a first place where the frame came with the tenancy but the mattress didn't, or you're setting up a spare room with one proper bed rather than a sofa bed guests quietly dread.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed or you're a solo adult who likes to spread out. Emma doesn't make this mattress in a UK small double, so we'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 45cm wider.

FAQ's
What size is the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe UK single?
It measures 90 x 190cm, or 3ft x 6ft 3in, with a depth of 27cm. That's the standard UK single footprint, so it fits any standard single bed frame and takes standard single sheets with a 135 x 200cm duvet.
Will the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe UK single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
Check before you buy. At 27cm this is a deep mattress, and many bunk and mid sleeper frames need a shallower one so the guard rail still sits safely above the sleep surface. Measure from the base to the top of the rail and check the frame maker's maximum mattress depth first.
Is the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe UK single good for a child or teenager?
Yes, with one caveat. The medium soft feel suits lighter bodies well, giving cushioning that firmer hybrids often can't, and the BioFresh™ cover helps with dust sensitivity. If your child sleeps mainly on their front, though, a softer surface may let their hips dip a little.
How much floor space does a UK single need?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which gives you room to walk around the bed and open drawers. The 90cm width is why singles work in loft conversions and shared children's rooms: two singles plus a walkway fit where one bigger bed wouldn't.
Should I get the UK single or size up to the UK double?
The UK single is 45cm narrower than the UK double, a big difference for an adult who moves around at night. For a child's room, a guest bed or a small solo bedroom, the UK single makes sense. For an adult sleeping in it every night with space to spare, the UK double is worth the extra width, and there's no small double option in between.
