Organic, & Natural Mattresses

Organic mattresses use certified natural latex, organic cotton, and natural wool — no polyurethane, no flame retardants beyond wool, no synthetic glues. They cost 2-3x more than conventional mattresses and last 15-20 years. For chemically sensitive sleepers, kids, and longest lifespan.

The organic questions we actually get asked.

If your question isn't here, call our Brantford showroom at 519-770-0001 or stop in at 441 1/2 West Street. A real person answers the phone.

What makes a mattress 'organic'?
Certifications. GOLS (Global Organic Latex Standard) certifies the latex. GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certifies the cotton and wool. Look for these certificates on the product page or label — without them, 'natural' or 'organic' claims are marketing only.
Are organic mattresses worth the price premium?
Worth it if: you have chemical sensitivities, want the longest-lasting mattress (15-20 years), have kids in the room, or prioritize sustainability. Skip if: budget is tight and you'd otherwise compromise on basics like firmness fit or warranty coverage.
What's used instead of flame retardants in organic mattresses?
Wool. Naturally fire-resistant and meets Canadian/US flammability standards without added chemicals. Most organic mattresses use a thin wool layer as the only flame barrier.
How long do organic mattresses last?
Natural latex with wool and cotton: 15-20+ years. The materials don't degrade like polyurethane foam. Cost per year of use can actually be lower than conventional mattresses.
Do you carry organic mattresses?
Yes. Selected Kingsdown models, plus Natura organic pillows and toppers, available at our Brantford showroom. We can special-order GOLS-certified latex mattresses. Call 519-770-0001 for current availability.
