What is a natural mattress?
As the name suggests, natural mattresses, also known as organic mattresses, come straight from Mother Nature. Free from man-made fabrics, going ‘au-naturel’ is increasingly popular, and natural mattresses reflect this. Chemical-free and non-toxic, they’re ideal for those who suffer from allergies and are a great way to keep your carbon footprint low.
Chemical-free hypoallergenic mattresses are beneficial to your health and well-being, as well as the planet. Mattresses made from certain natural fibres can also have a calming effect, perfect for creating a relaxing place to rest your head and recover after a long day.
What is the best organic mattress?
Organic mattresses, sometimes referred to as natural mattresses, are an eco-friendly choice that do not include any man-made fibres. They’re chemical-free and non-toxic, making them ideal for people who are sensitive to man-made fabrics as well as anyone who wants to make a more eco-friendly and greener purchase.
All of the major mattress brands offer organic and natural options, but in our opinion, the best organic mattresses are those that combine premium quality fibres such as latex, bamboo, silk and cashmere. Look for brands such as Hypnos, Tuft & Springs, Sleepeezee, and Relyon. Sleepeezee is committed to sustainable mattress making and supports the Campaign for Wool initiative, which promotes UK-based wool farmers to cut down on their carbon footprint even further.
Remember that natural fibre mattresses can be fully recycled too, making them an even greener choice. At MattressNextDay you can take advantage of free next-day mattress delivery and our mattress recycling scheme when you buy a new mattress from us.
Which organic mattress brands are non-toxic?
We are proud to offer eco-friendly mattresses from some of the most prominent brands. Quality is assured when you buy natural mattresses from brands such as Hypnos, Harrison Spinks, and much more. Do be aware that those brands also sell other types of mattresses. For that reason, we recommend exploring our range of natural fibre mattresses above to view all the organic sleeping solutions offered by the very best mattress brands.
Types of natural mattress
1. Natural latex mattresses
This hypoallergenic mattress is a popular choice as it’s biodegradable, cost-effective and dust mite repellent. One of the best natural mattresses for back pain, organic latex mattresses provide all the necessary support for pain-free sleep. A cooling latex mattress is calming, helping to promote a peaceful sleeping environment. A great natural latex mattress is the Hypnos Pillow Top Elite Mattress, with additional innovative layers and support systems.
2. Wool mattresses
A woollen mattress is a healthy option due to its antibacterial properties. This allows it to reduce moisture, perfect for a wide range of bedrooms. A top-rated kid's mattress, mattresses made from wool are also fire-retardant, increasing the level of safety. Hypnos' Wool Origins 6 Mattress is a perfect example of a natural mattress that contains wool, with the wool being fully certified and approved by Red Tractor Assurance.
3. Cotton mattresses
A cotton mattress is an ideal natural mattress choice for anyone who suffers from night-time sweats. It wicks moisture away from the body to keep you cool and dry at night. Egyptian cotton is a particularly soft and luxurious choice, which can add an extra layer of comfort. The Hypnos Cotton Origins 7 Mattress has a cotton filling, which is breathable and hypoallergenic. And like the Wool Origins 6 Mattress, has materials that are fully certified by Red Tractor Assurance.
4. Mohair mattresses
Similar to wool, a mohair mattress is anti-bacterial. Luxury mohair natural mattress styles are softer than wool, and finished with a silky texture that makes it incredibly comfortable. A fine example of a mohair mattress is the Harrison Spinks Winchester 13750 Mattress, with mohair from their own Angola goats on the Harrison Spinks Yorkshire farm.
5. Bamboo mattresses
Bamboo has antibacterial properties, as well as a robust texture. A natural bamboo mattress is a good choice if you're looking for a sturdy mattress and is a suitable mattress for sufferers of back problems. MLILY's MLILY® Bamboo Refresh 1500 Memory Hybrid Mattress is a prime example of a mattress containing bamboo properties, which are allergy-free and regulate temperature whilst you sleep during the night.
