Cubiculum opens third shop in Hilden with Ikelo Bodyscanner and Idoshape sensormats

After Dusseldorf and Leverkusen, Cubiculum has opened a third sleep advice shop in Hilden. Cubiculum is not a classic mattress shop, but an innovative service provider. It stands for a completely new consulting concept around the topic of “healthy sleep”. Their sleep advice is focussed on your individual sleeping habits and needs. As a result, all relevant sleep data are considered and compiled into a personalized advice. The optimal solution for your individual needs is determined using various highly modern measuring methods.

Two of these measuring methods are provided by Custom8: a full body measurement with an Ikelo bodyscanner and a visualization of the fit between the advised sleep system and the body profile with an idoshape sensormat.

Personalized sleep advice with Ikelo and Idoshape in Bedking Ergopolis

With years of experience as ergonomical advisor on sleep comfort, Pascal Mannekens is now using the Ikelo bodyscanner and Idoshape sensormat to objectify the personal sleep advice in his shop Bedking Ergopolis.

A good sleep advice is based on an interview and a measurement of the important aspects of the customer’s body. A good sleeping system will conform to your body, without sinking too deep into the mattress. It will also provide a good micro-climate (heat and moisture regulation) during sleep, and will account for any health issues.

The body of the customer profile is first mapped with the aid of a ikelo body scanner. Subsequently, the deflecton of the mattress surface under the body of the customer is measured with the idoshape sensor mat. These measurements allow Pascal Mannekens to provide an objective sleep advice tailored to the customer using the Custom8 retail software.

Personal sleep scan by Equilli based on Idoshape sensormats

Equilli is a new player in the Belgian mattress market offering personalized sleep comfort. They have developed a sleep advice system (Personal Sleep Scan) for their modular mattress range. It is based on the indentation measurement from the Idoshape sensormat.

why use indentation for a personal sleep scan?

A pressure measurement provides information about the contact pressure between the skin and the mattress surface. It is very useful in the medical field where pressure peaks should be avoided for bedridden patients. It is also used in mattress shops as a measure of the comfort level of the sleep system. However, it provides no information about the deformation of the sleep system and thus about the shape of the spine.The deflection measurement of the personal sleep scan provides the necessary information about how deep the important body parts (shoulders, waist and hips) are sinking into the mattress at different sleep postures (back or side sleeping).

Contract with De Rucci

Custom8 and Kreamat have signed a major contract with De Rucci, an important Chinese company in the Bedding Industry. Kreamat will export their ‘Slapen à la Carte’ boxspring range and Custom8 will supply the measurement equipment and expert system (Ikélo).
