What to look for in your natural mattress?

Are you looking for a new mattress? Are you maybe curious as to what a natural mattress may have to offer? Well, you have definitely come to the right place. In this article, we will talk through some good pointers to look out for when looking to purchase a natural mattress.

At Ely Mattress, we have spent over 40 years in the mattress business and have a pretty good understanding of what works best. That’s why we choose natural. We pride ourselves on really listening to our customers’ needs. We have spent many years perfecting our mattresses to ensure they offer each of our customers the perfect setting for the best sleep possible. We feel that the Ely Mattress is pretty special, and we have a huge range of benefits to back this up.

Check out the pointers below for what we feel are essential things to look out for when investing in a natural mattress.

Is it environmentally friendly?

A big selling point for natural mattresses is that they are often better for the planet. At Ely Mattress, looking after the environment is a big priority for us, along with our customers of course. The reason behind the link between natural and eco-friendly is because using natural materials is more sustainable and helps reduce the world’s carbon footprint. The materials that we use are not synthetic, and so are better for the planet. To go that step further, check out if the materials are locally sourced. At Ely Mattress, our mattress materials are all locally sourced in Yorkshire to support UK businesses.

To continue even further with helping the planet, at Ely Mattress we responsibly recycle your old mattress without using harmful gases or chemicals. A lot of none-natural mattresses end up in landfills each year, which is having a negative impact on the planet. When it comes to upgrading your Ely in the future, using natural materials means your mattress is biodegradable. By choosing natural, you can do your bit for the planet when investing in a mattress.

Does it provide top quality comfort and premium support?

Most people’s top aim when it comes to a mattress is wanting a mattress which is comfortable and which offers great support. A lot of whether this is possible is based on the materials used and the design of layers.

At Ely mattresses, we have designed our mattresses with natural materials to create the ideal level of firmness and comfort. These natural materials are layered in a specific way to make the Ely and help keep your spine aligned. Our mattresses contour to your body to provide maximum comfort and a weightless feel, whilst still providing a great level of support. This can help with common aches and pains by providing pressure relief.

Does it promote great temperature regulation?

Why someone may be attracted to a natural mattress is their ability to regulate temperature. Many mattresses can struggle to regulate heat. This is common with mattresses such as those made from memory foam.  Materials such as foam tend to retain your body heat throughout the night, making you wake up too hot.

When choosing a natural mattress, many of the materials used such as horsehair or sheep’s wool are brilliant at regulating temperature and releasing heat. At Ely Mattress, we use these exact materials, meaning you can rest sounding at the perfect temperature to sleep.

Is it better for your health?

Not only are natural mattresses often more comfortable and better for the environment, but they can also benefit your health too. Many mattresses made from synthetic materials can release harmful gases and chemicals. These gases can be released throughout the night as we sleep. They have also been argued to be unsafe for your health. Common health issues associated with breathing in these gases overnight can include throat irritation or headaches. Some have also been linked to a number of more serious health conditions such as cancer.

Choosing a natural mattress like the Ely means your mattress will be toxic free. Using these natural materials to make our mattresses means that you can sleep soundly and be assured that your health will not be at risk.
