Why is a BICO Slatted Frame Important?

A BICO Slatted Frame is more than just a simple foundation. It supports the mattress, stabilises the body, and ensures that the shoulders, back, hips, and legs are positioned ergonomically. This is particularly crucial for side and back sleepers so that the mattress can deliver its full effect.

Why BICO Slatted Frames are Better than Standard Slatted Frames

BICO Slatted Frames differentiate from standard slatted frames through their precise zoning, high-quality craftsmanship, and adjustment to modern mattresses. While simple slatted frames typically only provide a fixed or basic spring effect, BICO systems specifically address shoulder zones, lumbar support, hip relief, central zone adjustment, and, depending on the model, motorised comfort adjustment.

Key Advantages over Simple Slatted Frames

• Shoulder relief for better sinking in side position
• Lumbar support for the lower back area
• Hip relief for a more ergonomic body positioning
• Stable frames made of aluminium or high-quality laminated wood
• Motorised models for convenient adjustment while lying
• System approach with BICO and Isabelle mattresses

BICO bico-flex® – Premium Slatted Frame with Silhouette Technology

The bico-flex® is the premium series among BICO slatted frames. Its unique feature is the innovative Silhouette Technology in the shoulder zone. Flexible fibreglass rods provide particularly deep and pressure-free shoulder support. The bico-flex is especially suitable for side sleepers, back sleepers, and individuals with high ergonomic demands.

Technologies in the bico-flex®

Silhouette Technology

Silhouette Technology means: The shoulder zone works with flexible fibreglass rods that sensitively conform to the body. This alleviates the shoulder, especially in side position.

Lumbar and Hip Adjustment

Lumbar and hip adjustment help to stabilise the lower back and pelvis precisely. The adjustment can be tailored in several stages.
