Euro-Luxury Certified Organic Cotton Futons / Mattresses

• How are your organic cotton futon mattresses different?
  
  They are made in Canada from the highest quality organic raw materials. They are chemical-free and sweatshop-free. Here are the components:
  
  
• Organic cotton damask cover: silky & smooth, with a high thread count to prevent dust mites from getting in.
  
  
• Organically grown European wool layer for softness, resilience, and fire retardancy.
  
  
• Pure natural rubber core to keep your organic cotton futon resilient longer.
  
  
• Ideal for people who are allergic or chemically sensitive as well as those seeking purity and sustainability.
  
  
• 8-year warranty of workmanship.
  
  
• We recommend getting our washable organic cotton barrier cloth cover for your mattress to protect against dust mites and the like.
  
  
• Bedding is a major investment, more permanent than a car investment, as it could last you 10-15 years and even 100 years in the case of organic linen sheets. It's something you'll be sleeping on, in, and under for a third of the rest of the your life. It requires thought, and for a lot of people also purity and sustainability. We are most vulnerable to airborne toxins and volatile gases when we sleep. We trust that you will find our complete offering of organic cotton mattresses and bedding accessories comfortable and worth the investment in peace of mind and health of the body.
  


• Is it true you offer free shipping on your organic cotton futon mattress?
  
  Yes, to the US (48 states) and most of Canada. Exceptions apply to Hawaii, Alaska, NWT, Yukon, and other remote outlying territories and regions. If you live in one of these places, we will email you with shipping costs and wait for your approval before processing your order. As a security measure, we reserve the right to require a signed statement of payment authorization by mail or fax. Offer valid for Economic shipping only. For a nominal fee, Express shipping will put your order ahead of the Economic shipping queue (which will gain you a few days) but the mattress will still ship ground freight.
  
  
• What else do I need to know?
  
  We custom-make your futon to order. Please allow 2 weeks for production time before product ships. Order is charged at time of ordering because this is a custom production. Product is not refundable for reasons of hygiene and prohibitive freight costs. Our returning customers know the extent to which we will go to produce a product that is truly pure and elegant and trust us to offer only superlative product. Our name has come to be associated with quality products from organic fibers and has been a harbinger of high quality in luxury organic beds for many years. However, if you are very particular about the look and feel of your futon or any other aspect of your purchase, we recommend that you purchase your organic futons locally and not on the internet. That way, you'll be able to touch and feel and lie on a test mattress before you purchase. Thank you for your understanding. There are no sales tax on US orders, GST on Canadian orders, and PST on BC orders.
  
  
• Tell me more.
  
  The 6" depth of our organic cotton futon mattress feels more substantial and are thicker than traditional futon mattresses, which are usually 3" thick, so are perhaps better classified as mattresses. It can be used with slatted futon frames, platform frames, or other traditional bed frames. It's important to air and flip your mattress every couple of months so the fill stays resilient for as long as possible.

  Please note: The freight charges included free with your mattress price are for curbside delivery only (outside the gate of detached homes, townhouses, or apartment buildings). There is an additional $100 imposed by the freight company for home delivery to the door of a house, condo, or apartment. For delivery to a designated room, the freight company would charge us even more. The best solution is to choose curbside delivery (no extra charge) and ask family, friends, or neighbors to help with bringing your new mattress into your home.
  

  Care instructions for your organic cotton futon:

  • Turn and rotate your organic cotton futon every 8 weeks
  • Place your organic cotton futon on a slat or solid foundation or in a futon frame (constant direct contact with solid floor may trap moisture and cause mold to form on your futon cover)
  • Do not allow your organic cotton futon to get wet
  • Use only non-toxic spot cleaner or warm water and brush to clean stains
  • Protect your organic cotton futon investment with our Luxury Organic Cotton Futon Barrier Cloth Covers

Our ten years' experience of offering organic cotton mattresses and bedding accessories to our customers has taught us that there really is no bargain to be had if you're looking for absolute purity, environmental sustainability, superior craftsmanship, durability, and quality.

Purity has its price. Uncompromising adherence to an organic way of life has its price. So do sustainably made products. At least in this modern world of ours. This is never more true than in the case of organic mattresses and bedding accessories.

It may seem odd that an organic cotton mattress (with nothing toxic added to off-gas volatile chemical compounds while you sleep and nothing good like natural oils that preserve and enhance the longevity of the cotton fiber taken away) would cost more — much more — than a conventional cotton mattress that is laden with all manners of chemicals not fit to be inhaled into our respiratory system.

But when you look at the fact that chemically-grown conventional cotton production is substantially subsidized by the government (making its price artificially low) and that alternative methods of production (such as growing and processing cotton without any chemicals whatsoever) are not and hence require substantial outlay of capital, labor, ingenuity, and philosophical commitment from the people who choose to do things differently for the sake of everyone's health and that of our planet, then it begins to make sense that alternative products that are made on a smaller scale, though more expensive up front, may not more expensive in the end, when ecological costs and health are considered. (Conventional cotton cultivation alone accounts for 384 millions pounds of agricultural pesticide use in the US per year.)

When we take into account the millions of pounds of chemicals that we help to keep away from our collective waterways, lakes, and oceans by buying organic products, then the price suddenly seems reasonable, especially in light of the fact that your organic mattress will last many, many years and that we spend approximately 100 days per year of our lives on it. With organic cotton, wool, and hemp mattresses, we pay the true price of cultivation, processing, and production.

Truly pure products will not be the cheapest things you'll find in the marketplace, but then they never are. Yet they sure are the best. At Rawganique.com, there is no other choice but the best: best quality, best for you, best for our fragile planet. We're sure you'll agree.

Our Luxury Organic Cotton Futon Mattress features a 2-inch natural rubber core that maximizes comfort and longevity (no rubber core is also an option). Layers of quilted and tufted organic cotton surround the core and add softness and loft to the overall mattress. Use them as a traditional mattress on a platform or box spring, or use them as a futon on classic slats or adjustable sofa.

The cover of our luxury organic cotton futon mattress is a soft, satiny, and tightly woven 100% organic cotton fabric that is unbleached & undyed. Our Luxury Futon Mattress features a layer of organic wool that acts as a flame retardant to meet fire regulations, making it exempt from chemical fire retardants. If you have a doctor's or chiropractor's note/prescription stating that you have allergic reactions to chemicals (to bypass the fire retardant regulation), you can also order our Luxury Organic Futon Mattress without the wool layer. Additionally, any customer can request our futon mattress without the natural rubber core. Full disclosure of sources and processing methods of raw materials follow at bottom of page.

The philosophy that governs every aspect of product selection at Rawganique.com is that there is no compromise for purity, environmental sustainability, and quality craftsmanship. This is why we mostly offer the highest-quality, most luxurious, best-made possible version of a product. Even though it costs more than similar items of lower quality, its imprint on the environment is way less, its purity uncompromising, and its elegance unsurpassed. However, in the case of big items such as organic cotton mattresses, we do offer two basic choices for our customers, so that all budgets, needs, and situations can be accommodated. You may want a second mattress for the sofa and not want to pay as much as for your main bed or you may need just a "starter" organic mattress that is immediately affordable. Whatever the situation, your needs will be accommodated by either our Economy or Luxury Organic Mattress.

What makes a luxury organic cotton mattress?? There are an endless grade of fabrics that can be woven from the organic cotton yarn, from rough canvas to airy muslin to tight sateen and beyond. What makes our organic mattress luxury is the beautiful hand of the old-world fabric, the tufting, the carding, the quilting, and the seaming, which all contribute to the timelessly elegant look and feel of the resulting luxury organic cotton mattress. Our Economy mattress has all of the purity of the luxury mattress but the fabric cover feels more like a good quality muslin than luscious silk, the batting is not as tightly carded or quilted. It is functional, for sure, but not as durable and not as luxurious. It's a purity anyone can afford. With Luxury mattresses, we go all out. No corners are cut, no details goes unnoticed. It's as good as it gets.

Information regarding the natural raw materials used in our euro-luxury bedding collection:

The Rawganique staff is aware that our customers must have choices. Growing sensitivities to the vast array of chemicals used in the manufacture of everyday items prevent more and more people from functioning in the chemical soup that surrounds us daily. Take cotton for example, conventionally grown cotton used in most bedding relies heavily upon chemicals that leave toxins in the soil, water, and air, not to mention the toxic residues on the cotton fibers. In an effort to preserve their own health, the health of their families, and the environmental health of the planet, many people are choosing a simpler, more natural way of life.  

The Euro-Luxury Collection of Organic Cotton Mattresses is designed for those who wish to live in a cleaner, safer environment, while enjoying a top quality, hand-made product.  The materials we use are the finest nature can provide; certified organic and handpicked cotton, organic wool, and natural rubber. Are you a sound sleeper, or do you sometimes suffer from sleeplessness, perhaps a sore back?  Maybe a stiff neck keeps you awake. It could be that you have allergies or are sensitive to chemicals.

Your organic cotton mattress and bedroom accessories play a major role in how well you sleep. An uncomfortable bed will cause you to have a poor night's sleep and since you will spend approximately 100 days there this year, it is not a piece of furniture to be taken lightly. A growing number of people are sensitive to the chemicals used in the manufacture of everyday items. Traditional bedding contains synthetic materials and an abundance of chemicals such as formaldehyde and arsenic. This bedding off gases harmful vapors throughout the night for years after your purchase and have been known to cause a wide variety of health problems such as asthma, sore backs, and multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS).  

With this in mind, the Euro-Luxury collection was created using only the purest natural materials found on Earth and by maintaining their purity throughout the manufacturing process. The Euro-Luxury concept is based on thorough and meticulous European research that proved that 100% natural materials provide you the best sleeping environment. Their elasticity and breathability, as well as their ability to regulate moisture and temperature, mean you get eight hours of good, restful sleep in a safe and healthy environment.   Euro-Luxury Organic Cotton Mattresses are made primarily from natural rubber; the most durable and elastic material available. A natural rubber core is ideal for mattresses; flexible yet stable, it is absorbent, resilient and provides excellent heat and moisture regulation and air circulation.

Natural rubber is a renewable resource. It is the milk or sap tapped from the Hevea Brasiliensis - the common rubber tree - grown on Malaysian plantations especially selected for their high quality product. Our supplier is located in an area that produces the finest quality rubber for mattress use; an extremely durable, elastic material characterized by its ability to retain its shape and original firmness. Because the product is manufactured where the sap is harvested, we are helping to sustain the local economy and provide jobs without depleting the natural resources of the country of origin. An important element of the Euro-Luxury manufacturing process is that the processing of the Hevea milk is done close to the plantation. We do this because rubber destabilizes when it is kept in a liquid form for too long. This can be avoided by the addition of chemicals, but since we want our product as pure as possible, we cannot do this.  

For our products, the milk is harvested in the morning and by afternoon it is being molded into sheets that are shipped to Canada where they are expertly covered at our facility. We use the Dunlop system to produce a 97% pure rubber for our mattresses. This process involves only air, natural soap and vulcanization agents, which are used to ensure the rubber keeps its form. All Euro-Luxury products - mattresses, foundations, pillows, comforters, and mattress protectors contain pure, organically grown and harvested cotton. Cotton grown in industrialized countries is saturated with pesticides and herbicides and absorb all the chemicals that modern fertilizers deposit in the soil. Machine picked, it is full of impurities, oil, leaves, and dirt. The cotton we use is cultivated and hand picked in the traditional co-operative manner that has been followed for centuries in the Cañete and Chincha valleys high in the Peruvian Andes. It is grown organically without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or defoliants to fertilize the crop, control plant growth or fight pests.   

No synthetic chemicals are used to strip the leaves in preparation for the harvest or during the manufacturing process. Hand picking ensures that it is the cleanest, purest most resilient cotton fiber available. Europe's oldest and most prestigious certification agency KRAV of Sweden has certified our organic cotton. Their stamp of approval is not only a guarantee of organic standards, but also that social rights are observed in the production of our cotton. All the cotton used in our batting, filling and fabrics is this clean, pure, organic product. It is woven to very high standards into the finest, softest fabrics, in Germany and Switzerland. The wool in our products comes exclusively from Texel, an island off the coast of Holland. It has a population of 13,300 people and over 100,000 sheep.  

The people of Texel have been raising sheep for over 600 years, and have developed a unique breed of sheep that is both hardy and produces wool of unrivalled quality. Texel Sheep have adapted to a very windy and harsh environment to produce a unique, long wool fiber with a high crinkle factor and high natural lanolin content. Products made from Texel wool are softer, thicker, warmer, and longer lasting. It is especially well suited to sleep products because of its superior durability, insulation, and moisture regulation. Texel wool is harvested from a sustainable source without detriment or harm to the animal. Each sheep is shorn every spring producing about 11lbs if high quality wool.  

The sheep are raised organically on a land that has never been used for agriculture and thus, has been protected from chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides.   Using craftsmanship based on experience and environmental sensibility, the raw fleece is processed without the use of any dyes or bleaches. Bleached wool contains toxic compounds including highly toxic dioxin, something we all can do without.  The wool is cleaned using a unique chemical free process that produces exceptionally clean wool, while retaining high natural lanolin content.

All wool used in Euro-Luxury's Organic Cotton Mattress products must abide by strict requirements to be considered for use. In this way we are able to ensure the purity of our finished product. Our wool must be free of any sort of plastic, baling twine, and mothballs. Fleece must be well skirted; no mat of hay, timothy heads, burrs, belly hair, manure, etc. Processing is restricted, usual processes performed on wool are not allowed, such as;  (1) Carbonizing, a process which uses carbonic acid to dissolve chaff, (2) Shrink proofing, (3) Chemical scale removal, and (4) Moth proofing. Any process that uses chemicals or produces toxins in the wool is strictly forbidden. Finished batting can only be washed with vegetable based soaps instead of chemical pesticides. All fiber lubrication, static control, or wetting agents are vegetable based and petroleum free. Finally the wool must be stored in an unscented atmosphere.
