Choosing the right mattress is undoubtedly one of the most effective ways to sleep well and without back pain. Increasingly, people prefer natural mattresses. What is a natural mattress and what are its benefits?
The name itself implies that natural mattresses are made using mainly natural materials. The use of natural materials saves oil reserves and the environment. However, the benefits of cold foam mattresses are retained and more are added.
Natural mattresses are kind to our bodies and also to nature. The natural materials used in the production of mattresses wick away moisture and naturally regulate heat, thus ensuring a longer hygienic life. They are also suitable for allergy and asthma sufferers and sleeping on them is healthier overall.
The natural and high-quality synthetic materials contained in the mattresses fully adapt to the human body and provide sufficient support for the back, thus eliminating back and cervical spine pain. Therefore, when choosing a mattress, you should pay close attention to what it is made of. In addition, you should also choose a mattress with age in mind.

What are some of the natural ingredients that are added to mattresses and what effect do they have on sleep quality?
As far as the oils used in mattresses are concerned, you may come across castor oil, olive oil or lavender oil, for example. Castor oil has replaced the oil that was previously used in mattresses. Olive oil helps to improve the condition of the skin and keep it moisturised, while lavender oil has antibacterial properties, relaxing effects and, last but not least, repels insects.
Plant extracts are also often used in foam mattresses. For example, aloe vera extract has regenerative effects, while Spirulina freshwater algae extract releases beneficial ingredients that help nourish the skin. In addition, spirulina also boosts the body’s immunity and helps to relieve menstrual pain. Last but not least, lemon eucalyptus extract is often used, which has anti-inflammatory properties and repels insects.
Materasso also boasts natural mattress cores. Our Biogreen and Viscogreen foams bring a piece of nature into your bedroom. These foams are environmentally friendly and excel with great properties.
The natural Viscogreen Lux mattress with a load capacity of up to 170 kg is one of Materasso’s most popular mattresses. What makes this foam mattress special? The mattress consists of two sides of different firmnesses. The top side is made up of Viscogreen natural viscoelastic foam, which boasts exceptional shape memory, meaning it responds better to changes in temperature and pressure and adapts better to changes in the body during sleep.
The base layer is made of durable Biogreen foam, which uses natural ingredients in the form of castor oil and ALOE VERA microcapsules. The mattress boasts long durability, dimensional stability and high elasticity. The mattress can be placed on a static slatted grid or on a fixed board.
The mattress cover is made of Eucalyss fabricwhich is infused with 100% natural eucalyptus extract. You will especially appreciate this because it has the ability to repel intrusive insects, such as mosquitoes.
Why choose this mattress?
The mattress helps prevent pain in the lumbar and cervical spinebecause the bio foam ensures the body is in the correct position when lying down. By settling the body into the correct position, the mattress also reduces body rolling and rotation, preventing restless sleeping. The mattress also helps to prevent circulatory problems, thanks to the mattress material, which does not create back pressure and ensures natural circulation of the circulatory system, thus improving blood circulation and muscle rest. The fact that the materials used prevent the formation and multiplication of dust mites and allergens in the mattress core makes it suitable for allergy sufferers.
