More Detail

Our 8" box-spring foundation is constructed with 2"-thick boards of cabinet-grade, untreated, kiln-dried fir. The heavy-duty steel springs (free of potential toxins from solvents and oil) are covered with a layer of durable organic cotton canvas, padded with organic cotton batting, then covered with our custom-woven organic cotton fabric. Recommended for our Traditional mattress. It can also be paired with the Euro or the Combo mattress for a softer, more "bouncy" feel.

Why Should I Use A Foundation Under My Organic Mattress?

Foundations do three things for a mattress. First, they ensure proper air circulation, thereby discouraging mold and mildew. Secondly, they provide fabric-to-fabric contact so your mattress does not rub against rough surfaces such as wood or metal. Finally, they allow you to adjust your mattress height from the floor.

Does My Innerspring Mattress Need A Box-spring Foundation?

Yes. They are designed to be set. Using an innerspring mattress without a box spring, or placing it on an old box spring, will impact the comfort of your new mattress and reduce its life. A box spring supports the mattress and acts as a shock absorber. Without a box spring, the soft padding is then forced to absorb the pressures being transferred from the mattress springs. On a hard surface, this results in the premature compaction and deterioration of the padding layers.

Can Wood And Innerspring Foundations Be Custom Sized?

Generally yes, for wood-slat foundations. Unfortunately, custom box spring foundations are not available.

Can A Natural Rubber Mattress Be Placed On A Box Spring?

Yes. However, the mattress will not absorb as much movement as it would if placed on a wood-slat frame or foundation. On a box spring it will feel 15% softer and more "springy."

Can I Put My Natural Rubber Mattress On A Platform Bed Witho

Yes. The slats on the platform bed should ideally be between 2" and 3" apart. If your platform bed consists of a solid surface, the mattress will not ventilate properly and will be subject to mold or mildew. Our Combo Mattress can be used on a platform slat bed without a foundation, because the natural rubber it contains sufficiently cushions the springs and protects the padding layers.
