Japanese Futon & Futon Mattress

Japanese Futon & Futon Mattress

We spend one third of our lives sleeping. A good night’s sleep is necessary for the body to regenerate. To ensure that our sleeping hours are truly restorative, we need more than just a quiet refuge, free of disturbances. We also need a mattress that suits our individual needs, one that supports the spine, thus allowing for complete relaxation.

Another aspect to consider is how well the mattress breathes. The materials used in a mattress should be able to allow for the circulation of air, as do layers of coconut fibers. The original Japanese futons are made only of layers of cotton. Most Europeans find that these futons do not provide the comfort and breathability they require. They also require more care; all-cotton Japanese futons have to be rolled and unrolled every day. Futons which have been adapted to European needs contain wool or coconut fibers and need only to be flipped over once every two weeks.

Japanwelt carries a range of natural mattresses which can be made of various natural materials, such as cotton, wool, horse hair, coconut fiber, natural latex, and hemp. Made by hand by a European futon manufacturer, these futons meet the highest quality standards. Choose from a selection of standard models or, if you prefer, create you own futon by choosing which materials you want. However you decide, you can’t go wrong with a natural futon mattress from Japanwelt.de.
