    Balanced Support

    Experience the perfect blend of pressure relief and support with a mattress that combines Natural Talalay comfort layers over the more supportive Organic Dunlop latex. The Talalay top gently contours to your body with a soft, buoyant feel, reducing pressure on shoulders and hips while enhancing breathability. Beneath, the denser Dunlop base provides stable, long-lasting support to keep your spine aligned. This layered design delivers the best of both worlds. Plush comfort where you need it, with firm, grounded support underneath for a responsive, well-balanced sleep experience.

    Modular Design

    At Nature's Embrace, we’ve spent decades perfecting an intricate yet simple-to-use modular mattress system that showcases the natural elasticity of latex. Why is that so important? Elasticity is the unique mechanism that gives latex rubber the resiliency to make it both comfortable and supportive. Forward-thinking mattress makers blend various densities and thicknesses to craft diverse comfort choices that cater to various sleeping styles and body types. These progressive mattress systems are the specialized realm of top-tier experts and are not typically found in major retail chains or less sophisticated outlets. We recommend this style for everyone but those looking for the firmest mattress options.

    Top-Zipper Cotton and Wool Mattress Cover

    Modern Comfort

    Our cotton and wool top-zippered cover combines natural breathability with ease of customization. The organic cotton is soft and durable, while the wool layer offers natural temperature regulation and moisture-wicking properties for year-round comfort. The convenient top-zip design allows easy access to the mattress core, making it simple to adjust or replace latex layers as your comfort needs evolve. This design is central to our layer exchange program, letting you fine-tune firmness levels over time without replacing your entire mattress. It's a practical, sustainable solution that extends mattress life and supports your body’s changing needs.

    FAQ

    Your sleeping position plays a key role in choosing the right latex mattress. Side sleepers often prefer Soft to Medium-Firm mattresses for pressure relief at the shoulders and hips. Back sleepers benefit from medium to firm support that promotes spinal alignment. Stomach sleepers need firmer surfaces to prevent lower back sagging. Combination sleepers should consider customizable or zoned latex mattresses for balanced support across all positions.

    Dunlop latex is denser and firmer, ideal for support layers or those who prefer a more supportive feel. Talalay latex is lighter and airier—making it great for plush comfort layers. Although both can be made with natural materials, it's far more common for 100% Natural latex to be made from the Dunlop process and synthetic blends to be made from the Talalay process. The only commercially available GOLS certified organic products are made using the Dunlop process. Most of our mattresses are made with Dunlop latex, but we also offer Original and Natural Talalay for those looking for added softness.

    Learn More: What is the Best Type of Latex?

    The difference lies in the latex composition and performance profile. The Talalay process was originally developed to optimize the consistent physical properties of synthetic latex. Original Talalay uses a blended formula—approximately 70% synthetic and 30% natural latex—which enhances consistency, softness, and long-term durability. Natural Talalay is a newer innovation made without synthetic latex, offering a purer and more eco-conscious alternative. This formulation also affects feel: Original Talalay is slightly softer and more uniform, while Natural Talalay is firmer and more responsive. Both are still softer than organic Dunlop latex with the same ILD.





    Yes, latex has a natural aroma. This scent is non-toxic and usually dissipates within a few days to a few weeks, depending on ventilation and a person's sensitivity to smell. In rare cases, those with very strong sensitivities may always notice a slight odour. However, it’s very different from the strong chemical off-gassing you may experience with synthetic foams. Many people even find the natural latex smell neutral or even pleasant. If you’re sensitive to scents, we can air the components in our factory upon request. This process takes 2-3 weeks.

    Latex mattresses perform best on a rigid, breathable surface. We recommend slatted platform beds with slats 1-2.5" apart (no more than 3") or a solid base with ventilation. As a general rule, there should be more support than air, and you should avoid box springs and bowed / flexible slats, which can cause uneven support. Coir Bunkie Boards can bring nearly any bed frame up to the warranty and performance standard.

    We cover the internal layers to protect the latex from damage and oxidation. Latex is naturally grippy and delicate to the touch, so enclosing each layer in a protective fabric reduces wear during setup, adjustment, or transport. More importantly, double-covering everything helps reduce the effects of air and light, which slowly break down the latex over time, greatly increasing the lifespan of your mattress.

    Our modular latex mattresses are built from the bottom up, starting with the firmest base layer and ending with the softest comfort layer on top. For example, a typical configuration might include a firm organic Dunlop base, a medium transitional layer, and a soft comfort layer. All layers are encased in a top-zippered organic cotton and wool cover, allowing easy access for adjustments. You can rearrange or exchange layers anytime to customize firmness

    No, the cotton and wool mattress cover is not machine washable. Our quilted covers are made from pure organic cotton and untreated, natural wool, which can shrink or become misshapen if exposed to water or agitation. We recommend spot cleaning only. Gently dab the affected area and allow it to air dry completely. Do not soak, machine wash, or tumble dry. Some people may choose to use mattress protectors or mattress pads for easier cleaning. However, that have a plasticized backing that reduces air flow and firms up the mattress.

    Comfort in all the right places

    This really is the PEFECT mattress. As someone with wider hips and chronic back pain it always felt like I could never get comfortable on a mattress. Now I look forward to getting into bed of years of dreading it.

    I've been using a latex mattress for a few weeks now. It's super comfortable and it's been great for my back. The motion transfer isn't as minimal as memory foam, but it's cooler. Overall, I'm sleeping much better now.

    Worth every penny.

    I went through numerous mattresses over the last few years and finally made the jump up to a zoned latex mattress. For the first time in years I'm waking up without any pain. It's such a relief to finally get proper rest. Tyson was great to deal with and very helpful.

    Heavenly

    I have now had my natures embrace bad for five years. This bed has been life-changing for me and my partner. I was weary about spending this kind of money on a bed since I had previously done so on a memory foam, and was disappointed after the bed became soft just a couple years later.

    Having done some research, I turned to organic latex beds and tried one out at a mattress shop. I found the experience to be very different from memory foam in that memory foam suck to you in and hold you in place while latex bounces back and supports you very well. The nature of latex also helps you if you move a lot during your sleep. I also found the latex mattress to be a lot cooler than a conventional and memory foam mattress.

    Five years in my mattress shows no signs of wear, sagging, or any other deformation. I am absolutely satisfied with this mattress, and could not ask for more.

    This mattress has truly changed my life in that every time I wake up, my body feels rested some thing that is truly under appreciated.

    Thank you so much to the folks at Nature's Embrace for this life changing mattress.

    For anyone who is thinking about buying a mattress I strongly recommend trying one of these before making a decision. Latex mattresses last a lifetime and are truly a dream to sleep on. Furthermore, they are organic, heat regulating, supportive and isolate movement very well.

    In my opinion, the only downside to a latex mattress is the weight. You will need to purchase a sturdy bedframe and use flat sheets of wood underneath. Other than that there truly is no disadvantages.

    Great mattress

    Really happy with this dulop latex mattress. Quality construction and very comfortable. Particularly like the fact that with this mattress I can unzip the cover and change the order of the layers of latex which differ in firmness to achieve a custom feel as needed. I could also switch out and replace a layer with the company if needed for the first little while which allows for even more customization. Hard to remain unsatisfied with so many flexible options.

    And we couldn't be happier with it. We bought this for our vacation home and it's more comfortable than our latex mattress at home which was much more expensive. We wake up feeling better rested than ever. I think we'll be buying a second one soon.

    Great

    My partner and I have been struggling to find a mattress that works for both of us, but thankfully we finally found the Unison. We both find it comfortable and supportive and wake up feeling rested and refreshed. We also appreciate that we're not sleeping on harmful chemicals.

    Sleeping on a cloud of comfort

    We are beyond happy with our custom 12 inch organic latex mattress! Tyson was fantastic with helping us understand all of the various configurations of layers and we arrived at a custom comfy bed that we can change up as our needs evolve. Highly recommend anyone go to the showroom and try one out.
