Mattress Advice from The Natural Sleep Company

Mattress Advice Guide

We understand that everyone's sleep is unique.
The key to a good night's rest is finding the perfect mattress.

Finding the right mattress to suit your needs can be difficult. A quality mattress should meet the needs of your body shape and weight, and help to relieve medical problems such as allergies or back discomfort if required. You need to find a mattress that supports you and potentially the needs of your partner too.

Mattress Fillings

MATTRESS FILLINGS	IMPORTANCE AND USES	BENEFITS
Bonnell	Because our bodies place more pressure on different parts of a mattress, a sprung core helps to provide comfort and support. Bonnell springs are coils that respond individually for custom support.	Adapts to the body Support where its needed Individual coils that adapt to weight
Pocket Sprung	Pocket springs are used in some of the best mattresses because an individual pocket of fabric around each coil prevents the mattress from losing it's shape. It forms the core of a top quality, luxury mattress.	Advanced support Individual springs retain shape longer Springs enclosed to retain support Quality sprung core
Memory Foam	Memory foam is an innovative layer of foam, that responds to body heat and shape and moulds itself around the body, gently and softly – giving you the ultimate in comfort and rest. Memory foam is also warm to sleep on, as it embraces the body.	Warm to the body Moulds to shape Superior comfort Luxury sleep

Lambswool	A layer of softest lambswool is not only warm in winter, but cool in summer as it is a totally natural, breathable material.
