We are delighted to pass the relevant British fire-retardant standards, without having to treat the mattresses with any kind of potentially harmful chemicals. We assure our mattress is 100% chemical-free and non-toxic. Our exclusive naturally fire retardant blend is a result of the GOTS organic certified cotton with GOTS organic certified lambswool and natural carbon in our organic latex. 

Slatted bases are ideal as they allow air to flow through the mattress giving it optimal ventilation. As with all foam mattresses, the space between slats should be no more than 2 inches (5cm) this is to ensure the foam does not start to droop between the slats which will affect the comfort and support of your mattress.

Figures from the American Lung Association suggest that between 50 and 80% of all asthma and hayfever cases are triggered by an allergic reaction to dust mites. However, the American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology [AAAAI] recently concluded that mattresses made from natural materials are far less likely to cause allergic reactions than those made from synthetic materials.

Most latex mattresses on the market are made from synthetic latex foam which is made from petroleum which can have a strong chemical smell (off-gassing) and emit VOC’s (volatile organic compounds). They are often 100% synthetic or it is a blend of synthetic and natural latex and marketed as ‘natural’ or eco-friendly.

100% natural latex is made purely from sap from the Hevea (rubber) tree which is injected with air and baked into a natural and durable point-elastic pressure relieving foam.

GOLS (Global Organic Latex Standard) certified natural latex foam is the gold standard of foams. With the latex sap sustainably tapped from Hevea trees that are organically grown without the use of any pesticides or chemical fertilizers.

No. The combination of the weight, texture, design and tight cover ensures absolute stability in the mattress and compares to any regular one-piece mattress! There is no visible or feelable split in the middle and no wearing out of the cover either!
