Futon Mattresses

Our futon mattresses are constructed from layers of cotton and wool, both natural insulating fibres. On a slat bed base this creates a sleeping environment that ‘breathes’ and insulates: warm in winter & cool in summer.

All our futons are cased and tied in unbleached cotton canvas. We recommend using a removable, machine-washable futon protector with your bed futon; and either a futon protector or futon cover with your futon sofa bed / bed settee.

Futons can be used on our Fixed-slat Bases and Sofa Beds, or on a flat surface. We do not recommend using a futon mattresson a flexible-slat base. If you are looking for a mattress for a flexi-slat base, we recommend our Natural Latex Mattresses.

Futon Mattress Care

Futonz natural futons are constructed from layers quality natural fibres: cotton, wool and latex rubber. They are tightly contained in a hand-tufted 100% cotton casing: do not remove this casing! To keep the futon casing clean, we recommend using our zip-off, machine washable futon protector.

Both wool and cotton are natural insulators which offer the qualities of warmth in winter and coolness in warmer weather; a natural climate control. These materials 'breath' - allowing air to flow through the fibres and hence both body and atmospheric moisture to disperse.

Following these simple instructions will ensure your futon retains its quality and comfort.

Maintaining The Loft

When using your futon as a bed, turn the futon from head to tail and over; so that the side that was against the slats faces up. Allow the futon to drop vigorously onto the slats when you turn it. We recommend doing this about once a week, when you change your bedding.

If you use your futon as a settee, turn it regularly to ensure that not always the same area is used as the seat.

Occasionally, in dry sunny weather, you can drape your futon where it is exposed to the fresh air and sunlight for a few hours. This causes the cotton strands to unfurl, and regain fluffyness, revitalising the filling. Caution: do not risk it being rained on!

Insulating Qualities

To ensure that the futon functions effectively as described above, your futon requires a free circulation of air around it. This means that your futon should only be used on a suitable slat base* and in an environment that is not unduly damp.

*The Traditional futon is designed to be used in traditional Japanese fashion - directly on the floor and rolled up daily.
