Mattress Handling & Care
Mattress Handling & Care
How to layer the mattress for maximum protection:
We recommend our mattress underlay on a slat base, our mattress protectoron the mattress first, then place the fleece mattress overlay with the fleecy side facing up, on next.
If you would like more protection for the mattress – which is a great idea especially for babies or if you are concerned about other potential soiling – we suggest putting a mattress protector pad in sleeping positions, then finishing with a fitted sheet.
Health and Safety Recommendations:
Mattresses should never be placed directly on to the floor. They need to breathe to avoid mould growth, common with conventional mattresses.
Our pure 100% Organic cotton is a natural product that has airflow as it is a breathing product. This in turn allows your body to breathe and naturally rejuvenate itself from the toxins picked up from the environment during the day, releasing them while you sleep, which is just one of the many benefits of the Organature mattress.
It is for this reason also that we recommend the mattress be supported by a hardwood slat bed base. These allow the mattress to get continual air flow and assist your immune system even more. See our excellent range of non toxic Hardwood Bed Bases.

Characteristics of Natural Futon Mattresses
The Organature Futon mattresses are made from our carded (fluffed out) pure organic cotton and appear softer to begin with but, as with all Natural fibres, the cotton compresses, creating a firm surface.
Futon mattresses and toppers filled with 100% natural fibres such as cotton, wool, kapok, straw etc. are not the same as conventional futons and toppers; even these different natural fibre filled ones vary in construction and sleeping. Conventional futon mattresses and toppers are softer because they contain synthetic foam, memory foam, foamed rubber (incorrectly referred to as latex), or a combination of these chemical laden products. Natural fibre futons are perfect for babies and children as they are lighter in weight and thus slowly compress the filling, adjusting to the firmer sleeping surface. Free from dangerous toxic chemicals. (‘Non-iron’, ‘Easy care’, ‘Wrinkle free‘, ‘Permanent press’, ‘Ultra Fresh’, ‘Water-proof’ and ‘Flame proof’).
- To allow for proper air circulation, for increased effectiveness of the health benefits gained when using these pure Organic products on a daily basis and to prevent mould and mildew forming, your organic cotton mattress/futon should always be placed on a good quality slat bed base.
- We strongly recommend that you use one of our natural timber slat bed bases in conjunction with your organic cotton mattress, which has been custom made in a healthy environment from sturdy Australian plantation hardwood timber.
If you have never slept on, or used, a futon or topper filled with 100% natural fibres previously, we prefer to talk to you before proceeding with your order.
Is a Futon the Right Mattress for You?
Our futons were originally intended to satisfy the needs of newborn babies, young children, teenagers and very chemically sensitive people whose everyday health and well-being depend on a non toxic nights sleep above all else.
If after reading this you are still sure a futon mattress is what you are looking for be aware and prepared for the extra maintenance required because if the regime of regular turning and airing is not strictly followed by you, then we cannot be held responsible. Any size futon mattress, including cradle and cot, must be used on both sides and requires regular turning. It is imperative that any size, is used on a hardwood slat base bed/cot or cradle. Contact us for further details on a suitable bed base if needed.
When using a cot, cradle or other size futon for a bed wetter (including the inevitable nappy leaks) ALWAYS layer our mattress pads or OLD washed towels under the mattress protector and check/ wash and replace every day as none of these products contain plastic or are covered with waterproof material. However, they do provide the BEST water resistance than any natural organic protector can provide.
Futons are traditionally made from cotton or other natural fibre and are hard / firm and not totally suitable for side sleepers. They have no ‘give’ or ‘bounce’. They are of Japanese origin and ideal for people used to sleeping on a firm surface.
Do not choose to purchase a futon mattress for the wrong reasons:
- It’s trendy.
- It is lightweight and will fold easily. (It isn’t and it won’t).
- It is a cheaper version of an organic cotton innerspring mattress. It is a different type of mattress altogether.
Sandra Bitunjac | 
| Great product and great customer service. My 3 year old daughter loves her new mattress.
Meagan Zieba | | I have two of these futons, a standard one and one that was made to order to fit a non-standard bed frame. The mattresses are very comfortable and my children love them. The customer service (particularly for the made-to-order mattress) was very good, and all the staff I spoke to were extremely helpful. Delivery was quick and the mattresses were well packaged. I try to purchase Australian made products as much as possible, so it was great to discover organic bedding made in Australia.
Beck Rodgers | | I recently purchased a bed from you for my son, including futon mattress and bedding, and I firstly wanted to say how great your product is. I was a little nervous about the futon mattress being too hard but I introduced it as the “cloud bed” and it has brilliant! Additionally I want to say your sheets were great - I think I could have put them straight on the bed without washing them first. No chemical smell there.
