Please note: The freight charges included free with your mattress price are for curbside delivery (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. Faster shipping options are available and will put your order ahead of the queue (1-2 weeks to delivery). |

Frequently Asked Questions about Organic Spring Mattress Coils
Our Organic Spring Mattress is made in Canada from the highest quality organic raw materials. They are chemical-free and sweatshop-free. Our organic cotton and wool inner coil spring mattress feature:
Our organic cotton and wool spring coil mattress is 9"-9.5" thick/high. The box spring is 6.5" thick/high.
Our Euro-Luxury Organic Cotton & Wool Innerspring mattresses is designed for the traditional coil spring and box spring bed but with the finest and purest materials Nature can provide. It can also be used on a platform bed or on the floor as many of our customers have done (dry indoor air and periodic turning of the mattress are important as platform beds and floors do not allow proper air circulation).
We start with traditional Bonnell-style coils and surround them top and bottom with tufted layers of organic cotton and pure wool from organically raised sheep. We put in an ample amount of tufting that results in a truly firm organic mattress that will withstand nightly use for years to come, all without any volatile chemical outgassing, so that you and your loved ones can sleep soundly knowing that neither the environment, the craftspeople, or you and your loved ones will be harmed by the manufacturing process (full disclosure at bottom of page) of our quality organic mattress. Not are our natural fibers organic, the coils are also as natural as can be — they have not been treated in anyway with oils or chemicals that are commonly used in the manufacturing process of conventional cotton or synthetic fiber mattresses.
This organic cotton and wool spring coil mattress is firm and features solid support. (Many people who are not used to a firm bed might find sleeping on it uncomfortable at first but will quickly find that firm sleeping surfaces are ideal for keeping away back pain. Those used to a firm mattress know that it's the best for maintaining proper whole-body support and posture during a night's rest.
The well-tufted filling stays in place. Carded organic cotton provides firm comfort. A layer of pure wool acts as a natural dust-mite repellent. Inner tufting eliminates dust pockets and adds overall firmness.
We recommend getting our washable organic cotton barrier cloth cover (second tab on this page) to protect your mattress against dust mites and the like. (We've noticed that our organic cotton barrier cloth cover completely blocks out dust, which seems to be ever-present in our house. When we unzip our dusty barrier cloth for washing, we find that the mattress remains dust-free.)
Bedding is a major investment, more permanent than a car investment, for a mattress could last you 10-15 years or more, 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. Since we are most vulnerable to airborne toxins and volatile gases when we sleep and breathing deeply, more and more people are turning to pure and sustainable bedding options which may cost more in the short run but become well cheaper over time as you factor in health care costs and damages to the environment. 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.
We custom-make your organic cotton and wool mattress 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 distance to which we will go to produce a product that is truly pure and elegant and trust us to offer superlative products. 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 since 2000.
However, if you are very particular about the look and feel of your mattress or any other aspect of your purchase, we recommend that you purchase your organic mattresses 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. Or get an organic pillow from us to examine the build quality and materials we use: we are sure that you will be happy with the workmanship of our pure and organic bedding products.
We 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 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 bed 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 Obasan collection was created using the purest natural materials found on Earth and by maintaining their purity throughout the manufacturing process.
Our 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.
Obasan 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 our 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 air, natural soap and vulcanization agents, which are used to ensure the rubber keeps its form. All Obasan 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 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 Obasan's 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 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.
