Nevern

Our fibre mattresses have been one of our best-selling lines over the years, so we are now adding a sprung version. The Nevern is made with masses of hand opened, hand layered, horsetail  and wool to give this mattress a softer feel than the more traditional Monmouth.

We only use the very best horsetail and long staple organic wool to make this mattress. The fibre is washed and carded and carefully hand layered to build up a wonderfully supportive but softer feeling mattress. The spring inside can be either soft, medium or firm, so you can choose the level of support that you need.

All the materials used in this mattress are either  recyclable or biodegradable.

The Nevern is hand tufted and side stitched and has the characteristic appearance of a hand made mattress. The spring has side supports to ensure stability along each edge. It is approximately 24 cms deep, is certified as organic to the Global Organic Textile Standard by the Soil Association and hand made in Wales.

The Nevern   is available as a soft, medium, or firm in whatever size you require.

Think you need to buy a mattress in-store?

There is a preconception that you have to buy a mattress in-store. Click here to read about why this is not always the best way.

No two people sleep in exactly the same way. Some of us sleep on our backs, others on their sides, and some on their tummies. There is lots of research that claims that sleeping on your side is best, because it takes the strain off the back and hips, and women tend to favour this position. It’s really important for side sleepers not to choose a mattress that’s too firm, as there needs to be plenty of give to support the curve of shoulder and hip.

Approximately ten to fifteen percent of the population sleep in their backs, and it can be problematic because it encourages snoring and sleep apnoea. However if that is your favoured position then a firmer mattress will help support your lower back.

If you sleep on your stomach you need to make sure that your mattress is always in tip top condition. If the mattress is too soft then your spine is thrown out of alignment and there isn’t enough support for your neck which can cause back pain.

Clearly the most important thing that affects quality of sleep is comfort, so ensuring that your mattress supports you properly is crucial. Weight plays a part when you’re making the decision about which type of mattress to buy, and the chart below is a guideline that will help you make a decision.  At the heavier end of the scale it’s important to realise that a Firm mattress may need a topper so that there is both support and cushioning.

Four great reasons to buy organic

Why you should consider going organic when you sleep

Organic Mattresses Are Chemical Free

Conventional mattresses use a wide variety of chemicals during the manufacturing process and adhesives are often used to glue the layers of a mattress together. Not what you want to be sharing a bed with! Organic materials are produced without the use of harmful pesticides, herbicides and insecticides, and all the materials we use in our mattresses are either recyclable or biodegradable.

Organic Mattresses are a healthy option

In many cases, allergies and problems with the respiratory tract are aggravated by elements found in conventionally made mattresses, especially memory foam. We are at our most vulnerable in bed and don’t spend as long anywhere else from day to day. Investing in a mattress that doesn’t introduce any of these foreign elements into our sleeping environment is a healthy option! People who buy an Abaca mattress often call us to say that symptoms like runny noses, sneezing, coughing, and skin irritations are either significantly reduced or eliminated within just a few weeks of sleeping on the mattress.

Organic Mattresses help regulate your temperature

Man made materials make for very poor temperature regulation. Memory foam, for example, often becomes very hot at night, whereas  the organic  cotton and wool  in every Abaca mattress wick moisture away from the body and help your body achieve restful sleep.

Organic Mattresses Are Sustainable

As a certified organic company we are very conscious of our carbon footprint. Every year 7.5 million mattresses go into landfill in the UK alone, so producing mattresses using materials that can be recycled is really important.
