Organic Cotton Mattress

Why should YOU choose Organic Cotton Bedding?

It’s Only Natural. Cotton is a natural fibre that resonates harmoniously with our bodies. The same cannot be said for latex, foam and other synthetic fabrics, and even animal products such as wool. When we surround ourselves with organic cotton, we function – and sleep – at our optimum.

A Much Healthier Product – Conventional cotton has been saturated with chemicals in the growing, picking and in the various processing stages. These chemicals are poisonous to the human system and many of them are activated to outgas by bodily heat.

Mattresses made with Certified Organic Material DON’T Contain Harmful Chemicals – Conventional mattresses are made from synthetic materials which may be protected against fire by a range of substances such as formaldehyde – a known carcinogen, they are treated with other chemicals such as ‘Ultra fresh’, ‘Mould inhibitor’, ‘Anti dustmite’, ‘moisture repellents’ and lavender, which for bedding is most likely synthetically produced.

Organic cotton mattresses and futons DO NOT contain fire retardants or other harmful chemicals.

Organic Cotton Has A Subtle Natural Smell – Conventional mattresses made with latex, synthetic foam, non-organic wool and polyester give off an odour, this is the odour of synthetic materials and chemicals – just like you will find in new cars, carpet and tyres.

This may also be the case with, what is frequently referred to as ‘Natural Bedding’, as most of the filling used for these is part of a plant and most likely imported; the Australian Quarantine Inspection Service require fumigation for these imported plant products.

Most people do not even notice the smell because their senses have been damaged by the many synthetics which we breathe in every day. These odours subside over a period of time (in some instances it can take years), but it never completely goes away.

These chemicals found in synthetic materials, when heated by our body, cause the chemicals to outgas which we then inhale. Yuk!

Organic cotton has a gentle natural odour which is harmless and subsides quickly.

Ideal For Allergy, Chemical Sensitivity and Asthma Sufferers – Hypoallergenic. Organic cotton is neutral and is a much healthier alternative for those with Allergies, Chemical Sensitivity and Asthmatic tendencies.

They Breathe – Organic cotton mattresses have excellent wicking qualities, absorbing moisture at night and dissipating it by day, which in the case of the innerspring, is aided by the air circulation through the springs.

We strongly recommend you buy a natural timber slat base to use with your Organature Mattress or futon to further enhance the organic cottons’ natural qualities.
