Surface Modification Technology (SMT)

About Foam Surface Modification Technology

Surface Modification Technology is a proprietary and patented FXI process. This foam surface modification alters the surface in up to five different ways:

  1. By pattern
  2. By the size of the pattern
  3. By depth of cut
  4. By the spacing between patterns
  5. By the location of each distinct pattern

Surface Modification Technology Uses

Foam Surface Modification Technology (SMT) has the ability to:

  1. Redistribute pressure
  2. Maximize comfort without compromising support
  3. Provide a "zoned" cushioning layer
  4. Enhance air circulation

Applications for Surface Modification Technology

FXI's Surface Modification Technology (SMT) is a key component in the pressure redistribution characteristics of our BodyZone™ support surfaces.
