We’re fully in the throes of Spring, and if all the chirping birds and blooming flowers remind you of itchy, watery eyes and a stuffy nose, then we’ve got some good news for you. While we can’t do much about the tree and grass pollen outside, allergy sufferers can find great relief with some thoughtful bedroom upgrades.
This week, we’re diving into one of our classic systems: the wool mattress with wool-filled topper and latex padded slats.
Let’s begin with the base layer…
An alternative version to the latex pad from the first configuration, this layer is comprised of latex strips glued onto wooden slats. Adding latex beneath wool mattresses provides buoyancy and give to the firm and resilient consistency of wool.
Some of the advantages of latex strips over a solid latex pad are:
Something to consider when deciding between latex strips and a latex pad is that a solid piece of latex probably has more longevity than smaller strips of latex—meaning a latex pad may be more resilient over a long period of time than the latex strips.
These latex strips come with or without the option for organic cotton covers.
Next up, the wool bedding!
There are so many benefits to a wool mattress, from its aforementioned quality to regulate temperature to its ability to help you sleep more soundly. A wool mattress also helps to reduce common bedroom allergies, is completely biodegradable, and is naturally fire resistant.
This is the ultimate topper for a soft, yet supportive bed. Our wool-filled toppers add additional cushion to your mattress and provides a natural, breathable layer between you and your mattress.
Stay tuned for more wool bedding configurations in the weeks to come!
