The Best Natural Organic Cotton
Innerspring Mattress
Available!
FULL
The Abundant Earth Natural Organic
Innerspring Mattress sets the standard
for the way organic cotton mattresses should be made.
The Innerspring Unit
Unlike organic cotton bed manufacturers that use lower quality innerspring units
to cut expenses, we start with the finest European offset coil spring system developed.
The top of each
coil flexes independently for maximum sensitivity to body contours, maximum body support,
and minimum friction. These old-fashioned heat-tempered coils last longer than
the "modern" innerspring coils used in most mattresses. We don't want you coming
back because you wore your Abundant Earth mattress out in just a few years. We
want you coming back because our hand-made mattresses exceeded your expectations
for comfort, organic cleanliness, and exceptional quality and durability and you
want another of our famous mattresses to add to your household!
Our Innerspring Mattress Features Include:
- Precise diameter and even coil barrel, as well as heat tempered for
longest lasting firm support.
- 100% working wire, every part of the surface flexes.
- Open, unknotted tall coils are more flexible and sensitive to body contours.
- Smaller coil diameter creates greater surface coverage.
- Designed for edge support; the barrel of each coil is positioned under the
border rod for support right up to the edge.
- Clipped border wire and side support springs for firm edge support.
- Double heat tempered for durability.
Average Coil Spring Count (may
vary with firmness):
Twin - 366
Twin-XL - 390
Full - 522
Queen - 642
Cal. King - 802
Est. King - 810
Cotton Batting
We then wrap our innerspring unit with
generous layers of pre-compressed, first cut staple 100% organic cotton padding.
100% Organic Cotton
Cover
The mattress is then covered by our premium 100% organic cotton fabric
to give you years of refreshing sleep. Our
organic cotton ticking is neither dyed nor bleached and is woven into a
beautiful comfort-soft fabric without the use of thread stiffeners (sizing),
sizing removal chemicals, or fabric softeners. Our organic cotton fabric is the ultimate
choice for people with chemical sensitivities.
Fresh and Clean
Also, our mattresses are made in an ultra-clean mattress factory/warehouse, where no flame-retardants, fabric softeners or any other
chemicals are applied to any products. Our premium organic cotton arrives paper-wrapped and sealed in a thick organic
cotton fabric shell and is kept that way until it is used to make your mattress. These organic cotton bails
and bolts are stored in their own special storage bays, free from contact with
any non-organic products. Finally, our organic cotton is fresh, and is typically
used within 3 months of arrival in the factory/warehouse. Just before leaving
our warehouse, your mattress is wrapped in an inert plastic wrap to help protect the
mattress on its journey to your home. The plastic leaves no residue and keeps
your mattress clean and fresh until it arrives in your bedroom.
Insulator Pads
Between the innerspring and the organic cotton padding, ideally some form of
insulating material is used in the manufacture of organic cotton mattresses.
This material is supposed to both keep the cotton from "packing" into the
springs, and provide an insulation barrier between the metal springs and the
cotton (which can wick heat away from your body). Other organic cotton mattress
manufacturers use a wire screen between the innerspring and cotton. This screen
has a fancy name, to help convince customers that their bed contains some
high-tech flexible insulator screen product. Actually, this screen does keep the
cotton from packing into the springs, but provides little, if any, insulation.
To compensate, the wire screen is then wrapped in "virgin paper cording." This
"virgin paper cording" is essentially a very strong
cardboard product that has no recycled paper content. The problem is that cardboard is a
paper fiber that breaks down over time, but more importantly "virgin paper"
cording is manufactured with formaldehyde. Now who wants to order an organic cotton bed with formaldehyde
as one of its components? Instead of using a wire screen covered in cardboard, Abundant Earth
uses an
"insulator pad" made from our 100%
organic cotton fabric.
The Natural Organic Cotton Box
Spring
The Natural Organic Mattress may be used without a
box spring on any of our platform beds, or more commonly, is placed onto one of our
Natural Organic Box Springs.
Unlike box springs that offer no give or
movement, the Natural Organic Cotton Box Spring offers a more comfortable sleep
experience--allowing the mattress to adjust to your body contours while still
offering outstanding support throughout. The box spring itself is surrounded by
organic cotton fabric ticking, and then surrounded by soft organic cotton
batting. Finally, the entire unit is then encased in another protective layer of
organic cotton fabric ticking.
Mattress Firmness
The Natural Organic Mattress comes in our Standard Firm, which is very firm, but
with some give, and our
Orthopedic Firm, which is probably the firmest mattress in the industry--much
like a soft rock! Click on the "Add to Cart"
button and then select your preference. Our natural organic cotton and organic
cotton/natural wool mattresses are generally firmer than most standard
mattresses with their polyester fluff and foam surfaces. For added softness,
consider one of our Organic Cotton-Wrapped Natural Wool and Latex
Quilted Pillowtop Pads or the Organic Cotton with Integrated Quilted Latex and Wool Pillowtop
Pad.
Choose Your Organic Mattress
Configuration
There are Two (2) different Abundant
Earth Organic Cotton Innerspring Mattress Configurations for you to choose from:
-
Organic Cotton Only - Prescription Required (approx. 8.5" thick)
-
Organic Cotton/Wool (approx. 8.5" thick)
All of our mattresses are made by hand using age-old European mattress tufting
techniques. After the mattress is covered with our luxurious 100% organically grown cotton
fabric, it is then expertly hand tufted
with European tufting straps to further compress
the cotton padding, and maximize orthopedic back support and comfort. Our European tufting
straps are superior to the machine-made "Button-Tufting" method, used
by most organic mattress companies, which uses string to hold the cotton (and
wool) in place. Our European tufting method uses reinforced straps, which are sewn from one side
of the mattress to the other and are then twisted to hold in place. This method
brings added comfort and durability to our organic cotton mattress. The
"Button-Tufting" method uses strings, which can stretch and even snap making
sleeping uncomfortable. This "Button-Tufting" method also uses round buttons to
compress the cotton padding. Unfortunately, many of these buttons can become loose, break or even get pulled out from the mattress making it uncomfortable to lie on.
Our uncompromising commitment to using only the finest materials, combined with our hand
crafted care ensures that this mattress will provide years of consistent comfort
and support.
Flame Retardants and Wool
Because our (1.) Natural Organic Cotton Only Innerspring Mattresses
contain no potentially harmful chemical flame retardants,
a medical doctor's,
naturopath's, or chiropractor's prescription (must be licensed in your state)
is required to meet federal flame retardant requirements.
This prescription may be faxed to us at 847-485-5169 or emailed to sales@abundantearth.com and might say something like "Patient needs mattress without chemical flame retardants." However, because wool acts as a flame retardant, our mattresses with wool, such as the
(2.) Natural Organic Cotton with Wool Innerspring Mattress,
do NOT require a prescription.
Wool is extremely durable and also has
the added benefit of retaining heat (keeping you warmer) when it's cold out, and
cooler when it's hot and sweaty (wool wicks away moisture helping to keep you
cooler). Wool also helps (just a little) with dust might resistance. You will
still want the added protection of one of our
organic
cotton barrier cloth mattress covers if you are concerned about dust
mites.
Quilted Latex and Wool Pillowtop Pads for Added Softness
Optionally, you may order our Organic
Cotton-Wrapped Natural Wool and Latex Quilted Pillowtop Pads separately
to add onto your Abundant Earth mattress or another mattress you already own.
Our deluxe Organic Cotton-Wrapped Natural Wool and Latex Quilted
Pillowtop Pads are available for those who want both a natural and super plush
bed experience. These wonderful true natural rubber latex-core and wool
pillowtop pads take the edge off the firmness of your bed while still allowing
the mattress below to continue to provide support for your body. These pads come
in two different thicknesses. For a minimal pad, choose the single-sided
Standard 2" version, or for the ultimate cloud-like sleeping experience,
select the double-sided Deluxe 4" version.
Produced from the rubber tree plantations of Indonesia and
Malaysia, our latex is sustainably harvested by tapping into the rubber tree in
much the same way as maple syrup from the maple tree. Shipped to a modern latex
plant in England, the milky white latex is converted into a mattress or pillow
core in specialized molds (Talalay Process). The core undergoes four rinsing
processes to eliminate rubber odors. In addition, our latex is hygienic,
hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial.
