100% Natural Latex core for mattresses , Coconut coir fibre, 100% NZ wool, unbleached Organic cotton and hemp fabric, 100% Natural Silk – we use all these wonderful materials to create a pure and healthy sleeping environment for you and your family.
100% Natural Latex is inherently hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial and dust mite resistant, making it perfect for allergy sufferers or anyone wanting to breathe fresh, clean air while they sleep. In addition, natural latex is breathable, keeping you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Derived from the Heven Brasiliensis, or the rubber tree, latex is the most naturally durable cushioning material available. So while it might cost a little more initially, in the long run, only latex will provide you with the perfect balance of comfort and support for years to come. It is recognised for its’ therapeutic properties and its ability to provide orthopedic support.
Latex foam naturally adjusts to the contours of your body, providing gentle support that maintains proper spinal alignment without restricting capillary blood flow. This reduces tossing and turning and allows a deeper, more restful sleep. Bacteria, mildew, and mold cannot live in latex foam.
Our Latex mattresses can last up to 20 years. Latex is bio-degradable and environmentally friendly.
We use 100% Natural Latex manufactured in New Zealand (Latex Gold) and Sri Lanka. It come in variety of thickness, density and sizes. Excellent quality!

Coconut fiber is obtained from the fibrous husk of the coconut from the coconut palm.
It has a high lignin content and thus a low cellulose content, as a result of which it is resilient, strong and highly durable.
Sri Lanka produces 36% of the total world brown fibre output. That is where we source this sustainable material from.
The fibres are compressed together with natural latex glue giving it a rubbery texture (rubberised coir). The coco fibre has excellent moisture and air permeability properties which keeps the mattress internally dry. It is also very strong and durable, yet extremely elastic, making it a great addition to a mattress to provide firm support for the spinal column.
Our coco fibre is not fumigated when entering the country because of its special but still natural production process and our arrangement with MAF NZ.
It is fully biodegradable.

100% NZ wool from South Island
The properties of real wool make it a perfect material to provide a dry and safe sleep in New Zealand climate.
Wool fibers are hygroscopic. This means wool has the power to readily absorb and give off moisture. It can for instance, absorb moisture up to one-third of its own weight. Synthetic fibers can only absorb 2-3 per cent of moisture before they begin to feel wet. It also naturally retards fire as it is harder to ignite than most synthetic and cotton fibers used in equivalent products.
We use in our mattresses and other products New Zealand wool from South Island, bonded to 500g density. It is washed and processed in very friendly to nature way. You still can smell the sheep, but only just a little…

unbleached Organic cotton 45% and Hemp 55% fabric
This mix of organic cotton and hemp was specially choosen by us for making natural mattress covers for the New Zealand climate.
We use it for all our mattresses and futons.
Our research has shown that pure organic cotton was not robust enough to perform well in our climate and gets moldy to easily in the winter. But woven in combination with hemp, which is mold resistant and has good anti-bacterial qualities known for centuries, it makes a perfect lasting fabric for covering our mattresses and other sleeping products, like mattress protectors, pillows and duvets.
