All Abaca mattresses are made with loving care in our farm based unit in West Wales. We use only the finest organic materials to create each individually made mattress, bringing you unparalleled organic luxury. Because this whole range is certified by the Soil Association, you’re not just getting a great mattress, you’re also buying a product with impeccable green credentials. Our range covers both pocket sprung and latex mattresses as well as a selection of organic cot and Moses basket mattresses. Each mattress is made with generous layers of organic Welsh wool, which is naturally fire retardant, allowing it to pass the fire retardant test without the use of chemical fireproofing.


Natural Latex mattresses

Abaca latex mattresses are certified as organic by the Soil Association. So that our customers are absolutely clear about what this means, we asked the Soil Association to provide us with a statement which you can read by clicking here.

Our (Ramsey) mattress is made using natural latex formed from the sap of the Hevea Brasiliensis tree. Two layers of organic wool are wrapped around a 15cm deep natural latex pad, then it is finished with an organic cotton cover and hand tufted. The latex is available in soft or medium to firm, and this metal free mattress can be made in different depths and in any width or length.

An extra deep latex mattress (Raglan) for those who want the extra luxury; the depth of this mattress will make you feel as though youíre sleeping on a cloud! The latex is wrapped in two gorgeous layers of the very best organic mohair and wool and is finished with an organic cotton cover. This mattress is hand tufted with top of the range wool ray tufts.

Pocket Sprung

The (Denbigh) mattress is a perfect example of how natural materials can work together to give you a great night’s sleep. Based on a 600 count pocket spring, the first layer in this mattress is hessian backed horsehair which is attached by hand to the spring. Tough and resilient, the horsehair adds durability to this mattress while the softer upper layers of wool add warmth, comfort and breathability.

Our (Snowdon) pocket sprung mattress is made in a choice of two firmnesses which between them provide the perfect sleeping surface whether you are very light, very heavy, or just average. It combines layers of wool with different properties to make a wonderfully comfortable mattress and is encased in an organic cotton cover which is hand tufted. This Soil Association certified pocket sprung mattress is available in all standard sizes and can also be custom made to fit a non standard bed frame.

A combination of pocket springs and latex creates a really luxurious mattress (Chester). Based on a 1000 count pocket unit this mattress has lavish layers of wool, but for maximum comfort we add a 3cm deep pad of latex on each side. Each layer is carefully added by hand to ensure the evenness of the fillings and then wrapped in a single layer of needled wool which is hand stitched to keep the fillings firmly in place. A 100% organic cotton cover encases the mattress which is then hand tufted. This mattress can also be made as no-turn mattress, which is a good option if turning a heavy mattress is an issue. Available in all standard and bespoke mattress sizes.

Our deepest and top of the range (Monmouth) mattress brings together modern spring technology and the very best natural and organic materials. The 1400 count pocket spring is wrapped in layer after layer of wool and organic mohair, but the secret ingredient is a layer of loose horsehair. Traditionally used in mattresses for generations, horsehair gives a springiness to this mattress which man made materials just can’t hope to replicate. Each layer is carefully hand sewn together to ensure your mattress lasts for as long as possible. Like our other mattresses, the Monmouth is finished with an organic cotton cover and hand tufted.

Our organic nursery range gives you the peace of mind of knowing that no chemicals are being introduced to your precious childís sleeping environment. There is an Abaca mattress to see your child through every stage of his or her life.

The Abaca 100% organic Moses basket mattress is a must for a new born baby and can be made to any size or shape. Made from layers of organic wool with an organic cotton cover, it ensures your baby is not exposed to any harsh chemicals. We also provide organic mattress protectors to fit. Organic mattresses for cribs, prams and travel cots can also be made, please contact us for details.

Our organic cot mattress is made from a resilient core of coconut fibre (coir) bonded with a small amount of natural latex. Layers of our heaviest wool are added on either side to build the cot to its finished depth, and then a wrap of wool is hand sewn around to hold everything in place. An organic cotton cover encases the mattress. A cot mattress can also be custom made to fit that much loved cot which has been carefully stored for years. An organic cotton cot mattress protector is available in standard or bespoke sizes.

The Gower mattress is ideal as your childís first proper mattress. It is made from a sturdy layer of horsehair bonded to an equal depth of natural latex. A wrap of organic wool is hand sewn around the pad, and the mattress is finished with an organic cotton cover which is hand tufted. Again, this mattress can be custom made to fit any size childís bed.

We like to do things a little differently at Abaca. A little while ago a customer asked if we could customise a mattress for his daughter, and after a lot of thinking we came up with the idea of embroidering her name on her new mattress. It worked brilliantly, and we now offer that service to anyone who would like a moses basket, a cot mattress or a single bed mattress embroidered with their child’s name. We make a small charge of £5 to cover our costs, and you have a choice of pink, blue, or green stitching.

Abaca mattress pads add layers of natural organic materials to your existing mattress. Whether you want to bring a bit of organic luxury to your bedroom, or simply add layers to extend the life of an old mattress, an Abaca mattress pad will fit the bill.

The wool mattress pad is made from two layers of medium weight organic Welsh wool encased in an organic cotton cover. Each pad is finished by hand stitching the layers together. It can be made deeper by the addition of more layers of wool, and custom made to fit a non standard size bed.

Latex mattress pads are made using one or two layers of 3cm deep latex with a wraparound of organic wool which is hand stitched. The cover is made with 100% organic cotton and is hand tufted. These pads are either around 5cm deep (one layer of latex) or approximately 8cms deep (two layers of latex).

A handmade oak bed needs to be a classic. It needs to be beautiful and simple. It is a piece of furniture which should be designed to be timeless because it will last for many years to come.

It is an intrinsic part of our ethos to produce high quality products that are made as sustainably as possible, and this means that we have looked very carefully at where our oak is sourced.

An oak tree is a venerable thing; it can live for many hundreds of years. Many of our individual oak trees in the UK are protected by tree preservation orders, but the great forests have all but disappeared so sustainable English Oak is almost impossible to source in any quantity.

Across the channel the French have been encouraging forestry production since the 16th Century. They have had a controlled forest management system in place since 1827 which has not only enabled a market in commercially sustainable oak to develop but also inspired more modern global schemes such as the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification.

Mature oak trees with trunks of between eight and ten feet in diameter which are around a hundred and twenty years old are felled and new trees planted as part of a multi generational cycle that ensures the continuity of both forest and supply of wood. These trees are ‘Quercus Robur’, the same species of Oak indigenous to the UK, renowned for its rich colour and grain.

We have therefore chosen to have our Oak beds made from French Oak to ensure that it is properly matured and responsibly forested.

We have chosen to have our Oak sourced and our beds made by Broadleaf, the real wood specialists, who share our passion for craftsmanship, quality, sustainably sourced natural materials and whose workshops are located close to our own here in Wales.

In conjunction with Broadleaf we have created classic designs that will blend seamlessly with the spectrum of bedroom styles. Each one is traditionally hand built in time honoured fashion and hand finished with a natural, durable, low VOC hardwax oil in your choice of Broadleafís beautiful signature shades - Nude, Classic, Aged, Warm Oak, Rich Oak and Dark Oak.


Divan bases have become a bit old fashioned, and not everyone wants (or has space for) a wooden bed, so what's the alternative?

Abaca has come up with a sleek new product that gives you all the benefits of the divan without the bulkiness. The Cambria upholstered base has a frame of FSC timber and solid oak legs. The frame is traditionally upholstered using layers of horsehair and wool, and the cover is a sturdy herringbone twill. No springs are used in its construction making this a great buy for those who prefer a metal free bed. Hand made in our unit in Wales, each base comes with a ten year guarantee and can be made in varying heights and to your exact dimensions. All standard sizes are also available.

Headboards are such a personal thing! Alan Watson has been making them for many years and will be delighted to help you select the right shape and finish. Click here for more information www.weavewoodandwatson.co.uk
