“A man is as young as his spinal column. If your spine is stiff at 30, you are old. If it is flexible at 60, you are young.”
Joseph H. Pilates
The Demko Bed-System provides responsive support for your body and spine while you sleep. At its heart is a flexible three-dimensional slat base that responds to the body’s shape, weight and movement. Working together with an organic mattress, the system creates an ideal sleeping surface that combines support and comfort for your body. Unlike a conventional rigid bed base, the Demko Bed-System moves with the body rather than simply providing a fixed surface beneath the mattress. Whether you are dealing with back discomfort, recovering from physical strain, managing long-term stiffness, or simply want to protect your spinal comfort as you age, the Demko Bed-System provides the support your body needs.

The Demko Bed-System combines three specially developed components that work together to provide the support and comfort your body needs while you sleep:
Flexible 3D Slat Base
The foundation of the system, distributing support evenly along the body while minimising pressure points and providing additional support where it is needed most, particularly around the lower back.
Organic Mattress
A compatible organic mattress that works together with the flexible slat base to provide comfort and support.
Holding Frame
Due to its special design it allows – not only the top – but the lower slat row as well to move deeper as much as needed where it is needed to achieve as perfect support as possible.
Most conventional bed bases provide a relatively fixed surface underneath the mattress, leaving the mattress to provide most of the body’s support and cushioning. The Demko approach is different. The slat base itself is an active part of the system, working together with the mattress rather than simply providing a fixed platform beneath it. The Demko Bed-System is therefore not simply another type of mattress. Its distinctive support technology is built into the flexible slat base beneath the mattress.
“Training as a para dressage athlete takes its toll on my body. Consequently, rest and recovery is paramount to my success in the saddle. Replacing my bed and mattress for a Demko bed and bed-system has given me the comfortable nights sleep that I so desperately craved. This is without a doubt the best bed I have ever slept on!”
Amanda Shirtcliffe, Para Dressage Rider
How the 3D support system moves? The human body changes position throughout the night, so the Demko Bed-System provides support that can respond to those movements. The Demko 3D slat base uses strong, yet flexible white beech slats connected by flexible strips. Rather than acting as a rigid, flat platform, the slat base is designed to move with the body in three dimensions — vertically, sideways and rotationally. This allows the support surface to respond to differences in body shape, weight and sleeping position while the mattress rests on top of the system.
Vertical movement allows individual areas of the slatted base to respond to the weight placed on them.
Sideways movement allows the slats to adapt laterally rather than remaining completely fixed in one position.
Rotational movement allows the support elements to respond to changes in the body’s position and shape.
Together, these movements create a more dynamic and responsive support surface than a conventional rigid base.
No matter how you move, the support follows — maintaining spinal alignment, evenly distributing weight, and relieving tension along the entire back. This can encourage the spine to decompress during sleep, reduce pressure on vertebral discs and improve circulation throughout the body.
The vertebral discs can take up the optimal position during sleep avoiding their degeneration. Importantly, decreasing the load strain and thereby ensuring that no harmful tension points develop. The Demko bed-system can evenly distribute the weight on the bones, the ligaments, the muscles linking them. As well as on the muscles surrounding the spine and the area around the joints. As a consequence, the blood supply can improve as well as the removal of inter-tissue waste material through the veins and lymph vessels. At the same time the slat base also stretches the spine longitudinally, moving the vertebrae and articular discs away from each other. The arteries are straightened out so the local blood pressure can decrease and supply of nutrition to the articular discs can increase.
Back pain and poor sleep often go hand in hand. When your bed does not provide the right support, you may wake with discomfort, stiffness or the feeling that your body has not properly rested. The Demko Bed-System was developed specifically with back comfort and spinal support in mind. Rather than simply offering a choice between a softer or firmer mattress, it provides a complete sleeping system designed to give the body the support it needs throughout the night. The Demko Bed-System is particularly suited to people who experience or are looking for support with:
These are some of the reasons customers choose the Demko Bed-System, particularly when conventional mattresses and bed bases have not provided the comfort or support they need. For people who wake with back pain or stiffness, struggle to find a comfortable sleeping position, or feel inadequately supported by their current bed, the Demko system offers a different approach to back comfort and spinal support — built around the way your body rests.
We spend thousands of hours in bed throughout our lives. That makes the surface we sleep on an important part of how we rest, recover and feel when we wake. The quality of your sleeping surface matters because your body spends many hours supported by it every night. A bed that is too soft, too firm or simply not suited to your body can affect comfort and how supported you feel while sleeping.
A mattress that is too soft for an individual may allow parts of the body to sink more deeply into the sleeping surface, while a mattress that is too firm may not allow the body to settle comfortably into the support surface.
The right level of support is therefore not simply a question of choosing the hardest or softest mattress. The way the support surface responds to the individual body matters too.
Firm bed: A rigid or very firm sleeping surface provides strong resistance, but may not adapt equally to every part of the body.
Soft bed: A softer surface can allow the body to sink further into the mattress, but excessive softness may make it harder for some sleepers to maintain a comfortable position.
Demko Bed-System™: The Demko approach combines a flexible 3D slatted support base with a compatible mattress.
The goal is not simply to make a bed softer or firmer. It is to create a sleeping surface that combines comfort with responsive support for the individual body.
The Demko Bed-System is designed to work with specific mattress configurations that complement the movement of its flexible 3D slat base. The recommended mattress depends primarily on the sleeper’s body weight.
For sleepers up to approximately 16 stone (100 kg), the standard 10 cm organic latex mattress is recommended. It provides the comfortable sleeping surface while allowing the flexible support base beneath it to respond to the body.
For sleepers over approximately 16 stone (100 kg), we recommend the alternative organic latex and coir mattress, which provides additional support for higher body weights while remaining compatible with the Demko Bed-System.
The mattress is an integral part of the system, so we recommend using one of the mattress configurations specifically designed for the Demko Bed-System rather than substituting a conventional mattress.
If you are close to the 100 kg / 16 stone threshold or are unsure which option is right for you, contact us for advice.

Since only firm mattresses have helped my back I was skeptical quite skeptical off the soft foam. But I was assured with my given weight this was the right choice. Now having slept in it for a week I can say the first time in over six years I have woken up without any back pain. Just can’t believe I don’t have a sore back or shoulder any more. I am afraid to say it out aloud in case I jinx it! But I think these demko guys know what they are talking about! Toddler hasn’t woken up too many times. I feel that we don’t get too hot or too cold in the mattress. Though I mostly had my toddler in mind while buying the bed, waking up with no back pain in the middle of the night has been a blessing. Anybody waking with a sore back aching all over should give demko bed system a try before resigning themselves to life long pain. I am well pleased with our investment in buying demko bed. It had been worth it! Definitely!!!

They were not at all pushy which I really liked. I have orderred a king size Greta bed with adjustable bed-systems which arrived well within the given time frame, in less than 4 weeks. Well, I really don't want to exagarate but from the first night it has changed my life! After couple of weeks of sleeping in it my condition has improved so much I really would have never thought it could be possible without operation. After using it for 6 months now, my pain level is decreased so much and I sleep through the nights. It is truly unbeliveable how much change it can make to one's life. My partner does not have any problems with his back/spine but he also can confirm that this is the best bed we have ever slept on. I only can praise Demko and I consider myself extra lucky for having a Demko bed! I was debating whether to mention the names of the memory mattress companies but I'm pretty certain about their mattresses made my condition worse as they did not give any support to my spine. Plus, the biggest factor in deciding to do so was my dog, Marcel. He sleeps with us in the bed and couple of years ago his hair started to fall out. We even bought him a dog bed from OTTY which is also made of memory foam. For 3 years we spent around £1000 a year for blood tests and allergy medicines for him. We had no idea it had to do anything with the memory foam mattresses but after he slept few months in the Demko bed which has organic mattress with the bed-system, he does not have any symptons and he is extra healthy again! Thank you Demko again for producing such a quality product which really really improves the life of the user!

We needed something really good for her back, extended stay in bed and something making her more independent for sitting up. I looked high and low what to get for my daughter and ended up at Demko system by sheer searching around on the internet, our own experiences and asking around at friends and lying on display models. The Demko bed / RehaBed slat base is kind of ‘double’, I had never seen something like this before and the latex mattress still a nice thickness. I got really curious. Then the options for frames and colours Demko offers, the beds looked decently made. We couldn’t look past the sleigh bed. From the first moment getting in touch with the Demko customer service to discuss options and possibilities, I felt like, yes, we could do it from overseas and even if a problem arose, could solve it. Every question was answered promptly, almost instantly, pictures for wood and varnish options sent back and forth, and I must have tired the poor customer service person out, yet he never failed to stay polite and be constructive and helpful. As we couldn’t try it personally and I had my eye set on the system -so had my daughter on the sleigh bed look-, we bit the bullet ordering it from overseas and getting it into Australia with a shipping container, through quarantine etc to us. The paperwork was just coming in and could get filled out as it came, there was nothing we had to consider, it just happened step by step and was contacted when needed, the shipping company contacted Demko and arranged all needs of packaging and forms and details. Of course what it needs is: time and a tax here and a fee there. Containers need to be filled before they get shipped, but it’s all within months and worth the wait. Yet even with the shipping and taxes, the price was only slightly higher than the more and more available different electric bed options in Australia. Probably because they all get shipped in…. and the quality in my opinion is not comparable. If someone ever built up a flat pack from any furniture house, then you can easily assemble this bed with your left hand. If something was with the electric motor, was assured could sort it out. But there was no problem. It was delivered as told by the delivery company, no damages to the parts, the wood varnish was perfectly even. I set up the bed with the easiest dowel system and oh my, was the quality of this sleigh bed good, there were so many details, curves, that were even not pictured on images, it was and is gorgeous. I was pleasantly surprised. This was a sleigh bed made with love we had not owned before. We decided on beech for cheaper wood option than oak, of course the colour got a bit brighter than it would with oak, which is to be expected, we love it. I clicked the motor in place and no, it did not work straight away and almost panicked, but just had to turn it off and reset, and voila, it worked, the signal flickered, the frame moved. I was always scared if a bed system in power outage would get stuck in a sitting position and no, there is a battery compartment to bring it back to flat. We have owned this bed now since 2018 and my daughter’s back pain disappeared! Her doctors are also very impressed and asked details of Demko. It is also important especially with her medical condition, to know, if the back pain was caused due to prolonged stays in bed or due to her vascular compressions, that cause a lot of other havoc anyway, too. Also it is very comfortable and working really fine, even I have to sit in her bed with her together at times, no slat has broken even this is surely not mean for that load and not recommended please. No regrets, absolutely worth it for our best bed ever. THANK YOU DEMKO! Sonja Crosbie
