Reading the specs: Density is nominal foam weight in kilograms per cubic metre (kg/m³). Hardness is the ILD (Indentation Load Deflection, also shown as IFD at 40%) in newtons, with the manufacturing tolerance after the ±. Resilience is the minimum rebound percentage. Higher density means longer life; higher hardness means a firmer feel. Figures marked TBC are being confirmed against the latest supplier data.
