Mattresses Care Guide
Caring for Your Mattress
A quality mattress is an investment in exceptional sleep and overall well-being. Proper maintenance helps maintain its supportive structure, hygiene, and original comfort level for years to come.
Note: Care requirements vary by mattress design and internal fillings. Always refer to the specific care label and manufacturer instructions supplied with your product for full warranty coverage.
Understanding Mattress Care
Every mattress settles over time as its internal fillings respond to your body shape and weight, creating a natural settlement profile that enhances comfort.
Whether choosing pocket sprung, memory foam, or natural filling designs, following simple routines, such as regular turning or rotating and using a protector, ensures your mattress wears evenly and remains supportive.
Understanding Different Mattress Materials
Luxury mattresses often contain a combination of natural and technical fillings designed to provide comfort, support, breathability and durability.
- Wool – A naturally breathable and resilient fibre that helps regulate temperature and moisture throughout the night while providing comfort and cushioning.
- Cotton – Soft, breathable and moisture absorbent, helping to create a comfortable sleeping environment.
- Cashmere – A premium natural fibre known for its softness, warmth and luxurious feel.
- Mohair – Derived from Angora goats, mohair is strong, resilient and durable while remaining exceptionally soft.
- Horsehair – Traditionally used in luxury mattresses, horsehair is highly resilient, naturally springy and excellent at dispersing moisture.
- Foam & Memory Foam – Designed to contour to the body, helping to distribute weight evenly and reduce pressure points. Comfort and feel may vary with room temperature and individual body heat.
