Our Standard Futon Mattress is designed for use on all traditional “A” Frame Futons and hardwood or metal two-seat futon frames.
Filled with layers of Cotton felt and a top and bottom layer of pure British wool, it includes a central core of rebound polyester for added support as well as increasing the loft and comfort of the futon mattress.
The gentle cotton felt cushioning cradles your body as you sleep and the highly breathable natural fibres supports the body with temperature regulation throughout the night, keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
All our fillings are completely chemical free. We do not use any fire-retardant chemicals, foams, bleaches or adhesives on any of our futon mattress fillings.

Materials
Wool
Our wool is sourced locally from British farms, it provides outstanding temperature control and is naturally hypoallergenic which makes it the obvious choice for a natural sleep environment.
Cotton
Soft and breathable, cotton is the world’s most widely used fibre. Naturally hypoallergenic and temperature regulating our the cotton used in our clever Cottonsafe® covers is GOTs certified organic and the cotton fibre within the mattress fillings is pesticide free, making it safe and sustainable.
Polyester
An exceptionally breathable fibre, polyester evaporates moisture quickly, it’s non-allergenic which makes it the perfect sleeping solution for those suffering with multiple chemical sensitives and other allergies. Polyester sometimes has a bad press because it is a man-made fibre – but polyester is incredibly strong and gives great longevity! Furthermore it has a carbon footprint of about 3.8 Kg CO2e/Kg. This is about 40% less than that of cotton. So it has a lower environmental impact and is great for the circular economy. Interestingly polyester can also be used in organic mattresses under the GOTS regulations due to its very low off-gassing properties.

We source fibres which are biodegradable and 100% recyclable at the end of the life cycle of the mattress, we comply with the Stockholm Convention on recycling and each mattress is clearly labelled as such. Our mattresses are 100% recyclable. Click here to read more about the Stockholm Convention.
Product Care
Product Care
The Standard Futon is a double-sided futon mattress, it requires regular flipping and rotating.
It is not uncommon for dipping to appear in your futon where the natural fibres have been compressed. We recommend you flip and rotate weekly for the first 4 – 6 months to allow the fillings to settle evenly across the top surface.
For more information on caring for your futon take a look at our care guide.
