Product Description

This 22-cm-deep mattress is crafted with a 5cm 100% natural Talalay latex top comfort layer laminated over a 17cm reflex CertiPUR®-certified foam base. Th...More +

This 22-cm-deep mattress is crafted with a 5cm 100% natural Talalay latex top comfort layer laminated over a 17cm reflex CertiPUR®-certified foam base. The 5cm of 100% natural Talalay latex layer is a lavish, luxurious material with a silky feel. It is softer, bouncier, and springier than Dunlop latex.

 

Talalay latex offers excellent muscle relaxation and surpasses comfort. The floating support helps alleviate pressure points by conforming to the contours of the body. This is particularly beneficial for reducing discomfort in areas such as the shoulders, hips, and joints. The reflex foam base provides the right amount of support.

 

The natural properties of latex and the specially designed air channels in the base allow air to circulate freely inside the mattress, keeping it fresh and cool all night.

 

Latex is naturally hypoallergenic and anti-dust mite; the sleeping environment is free from bed bugs, dust mites, and allergies.

 

The Talalay 500 Latex Mattress is certainly the most affordable of its kind available online. It is delivered rolled up for your convenience and is available in all standard UK, continental, and custom sizes.

 

The latex used in this mattress is certified to eco-INSTITUT; meets the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®; achieved the Cradle to Cradle Certified™ Gold level; and complies with the principles of FSC® to promote sustainably managed forests and ecosystems.

 

Eco-INSTITUT certification is a globally recognised label assessing a product's environmental and health compliance, ensuring safety and sustainability throughout its lifecycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. Employing eco-INSTITUT-certified Talalay latex guarantees trust, environmental consciousness, and superior quality. 

 

Our 100% natural Talalay meets Cradle to Cradle Certified™ Gold level requirements for material health, reutilisation, renewable green energy, carbon management, water stewardship, and social responsibility. It is safe, free of any toxic materials that can have an impact on the environment and human health, and 100% recyclable. The certificate applies to 100% natural Talalay latex. 

 

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), a nonprofit organisation, assures that the forests from which Talalay products are derived are responsibly managed. Incorporating health and safety laws, they additionally take into consideration social and economic factors to ensure fair working conditions and traceability across the production process.

 

The Polyurethane Foam complies with the requirements of CertiPUR Health, Safety, and Environmental Standards. 

 

CertiPUR is a rigorous standard for polyurethane foams, ensuring they are free of harmful substances and tested by independent, accredited laboratories, addressing consumer concerns about emissions, content, and durability.

The natural properties of latex provide an environment free from microorganisms, mites, bacteria, and dust that generally cause a number of allergies and inflammations.

The Tencel cover has moisture-management properties and reduces sweating and overheating. ActiproTM technology is used in our mattress fabric to eliminate unwanted allergens, reduce bacteria, and eliminate unpleasant odours, helping to maintain a welcoming and refreshing sleep environment. 

100% natural Talalay latex is up to ten times more breathable than other foams due to these interconnected round cells.

Talalay 500 Latex Mattress Feature

Talalay Latex is 100% natural, certified to eco-INSTITUT, meets the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, Cradle to Cradle CertifiedTM Gold level awarded, and complies with FSC® principles to nurture ecologically sound forest management.

  • With great strength, efficient moisture absorption, and gentleness to the skin
  • With a soft knitted sleep surface, it keeps your mattress fresh and cool
  • ActiproTM technology is used in the fabric to provide healthful protection against allergens, dust mites, and odours

The latex comfort layer employs natural graphite, a mineral derived from Mother Nature. The graphite has fire-retardant properties, and when mixed with latex, it acts as a fire barrier. 

The open cell structure of the latex and the air channels in the base allow air to flow naturally through the mattress and help to dissipate moisture away from the body for a cooler and fresher sleeping experience.

17cm Zoned High Density Airflow Foam Base

17cm high-density Polyurethane Foam (34kg per cubic metre density), which is the industry's leading filler-free foam range and complies with the requirements of CertiPUR Health, Safety, and Environmental Standards, works together to distribute weight whenever they feel pressure while also minimising disturbance to you when your partner shifts or moves.

Care instructions

Status of the mattress upon delivery

The Talalay 500 Latex Mattress is vacuum-packed and rolled. This ensures mattress hygiene, quality in transit, and improved delivery timeframes. Your mattress was carefully vacuum-packed on the day it was shipped to you. We use one of the newest and most innovative packing technologies in the bedding industry; it neither damages nor impairs the performance of the mattress.

Storing your mattress and how to handle it

Please be kindly advised that we do not recommend storing the mattress in a rolled and vacuumed state for more than 4 weeks, as this will damage the product. Take the mattress out of the box and put it on the bed. Carefully cut the tape that holds the roll together and unroll the mattress while it is in its polythene bag. Please take extreme care so as not to damage your item. It will still be compressed, and you need to cut the bag closer to the heat seal. Take extra care, as the tool you use can damage the cover.

Sleeping on the mattress

The mattress recovers to its full shape and size after unpacking; please allow up to 24 hours for the optimal balance to be reached. However, since it is not a mandatory requirement, you can begin using the mattress right away.

Identifying the top side of your mattress

The side with the big product sticker attached to the cover is the 5cm latex top side, the side you sleep on. The Talalay 500 Latex Mattress is zoned, which are symmetrically positioned along the length; there is no head or foot end. You can position the mattress either way and still experience the benefits of the zones.

Moving and manoeuvring your mattress

Take extreme care while moving the mattress, as the foam fillings can tear if grabbed or pulled on corners or edges. You can rotate the mattress from head to foot once every month; this will ensure even wear and tear and prolong its lifespan.

Cleaning your mattress

The mattress covers are NOT washable. The mattress must be kept dry; therefore, we strongly advise using a good-quality mattress protector at all times. The zip on the cover is solely used during production to easily place the cover on the mattress. We do not recommend removing and washing the cover; if you do, it is at your own risk, and we will not be held liable for any damage or shrinkage resulting from the washing of the cover. The mattress cover can be cautiously vacuumed, including the underside.

In the event that you spill liquid on your mattress and it gets wet, spot clean any stains with a damp cloth, carefully unzip and remove the top panel of the cover to naturally dry until the liquid is evaporated, and then air the mattress core until it is fully dry. The mattress can then be used again. Never use detergents or chemical cleaners on your mattress. This can adversely affect not only the fabrics but also the fillings inside.

Bed-base requirement

The mattress can be used on any bed base—solid top divan, sprung edge divan, solid slatted, or sprung slatted base. The gaps across the slats should be between 2 and 3 inches wide (5 cm to 7.5 cm). Using the mattress with a wider gap could cause damage and invalidate your guarantee. Do not use the mattress on the floor; the lack of ventilation may lead to mould and mildew buildup and invalidate your guarantee.

Latex Sense reserves the right to refuse warranty repair or replacement if a new mattress becomes damaged due to being used on a bed base with inadequate slat gaps, a second-hand bed foundation with insufficient support, or if it is in an unsanitary condition.

Mattress care

Do not let children jump on the mattress; it may damage it and invalidate your guarantee. The mattress is designed for sleeping on; therefore, prolonged sitting on the edge can cause damage and place undue stress on this area of the mattress. The mattress is one-sided; you can rotate it from head to foot once every month, which will ensure even wear and tear and prolong its lifespan. You can air the mattress every time you change your bed linen to keep it fresh and dry.

Please keep packaging away from children. Please recycle or dispose of the packaging.

What is Talalay Latex, and what are its benefits?

Talalay latex is defined as the ‘’Earth's Finest Sleeping Material’’. 

The 5cm Talalay latex layer is a lavish, luxurious material with a silky feel. It is softer, bouncier, and springier than Dunlop latex. Talalay latex offers excellent muscle relaxation and surpasses comfort. The floating support helps alleviate pressure points by conforming to the contours of the body. This is particularly beneficial for reducing discomfort in areas such as the shoulders, hips, and joints.

 

What is Reflex Foam?

The reflex foam we use is high-density polyurethane foam, a man-made material that is the industry's leading filler-free foam range. It offers superior durability, recovery, and service life. 

What is the benefit of a mattress with a combination of 100% Natural Talalay Latex and Polyurethane Foam?

A mattress with a 100% Talalay latex top and a polyurethane foam base combines the plush comfort of natural latex with the sturdy support of high-density polyurethane foam. The mattress offers premium benefits for a reasonable price.

Natural Material: 100% natural Talalay latex is sourced from the sap of rubber trees, making it an environmentally green and sustainable material.

Comfort and Support: The buoyant sensation contributes to a dynamic support system. The latex adjusts instantly when you move or shift during sleep, providing constant and adaptive support. The cell structure is very consistent. 

Pressure relief: The floating support helps alleviate pressure points and relaxes muscles by conforming to the contours of the body. This is particularly beneficial for reducing discomfort in areas such as the shoulders, hips, and joints.

Breathability: 100% natural Talalay latex is up to ten times more breathable than other foams due to these interconnected round cells.

Durability: Latex is generally durable and resilient, with a longer lifespan compared to some other mattress materials.

Polyurethane High-Density Foam (Reflex Foam): provides an extremely sturdy, firm base for the mattress. It is intended to provide rigidity and prevent sinking.

Affordability: Polyurethane foam tends to be less costly than natural latex or other premium materials, making the mattress more affordable and budget-friendly.

Longevity: High-density polyurethane foam has been praised for its resilience, which contributes to the mattress's overall lifespan.

Motion Isolation: Latex and polyurethane incorporation have good motion isolation qualities, which indicates disturbances on one side of the bed are less likely to be felt on the opposite side.

Lightweight: When compared to other mattress materials, polyurethane foam is quite lightweight, making it easier to handle and move.

Polyurethane foam is adjustable since it can be produced with a variety of densities and firmness levels, allowing for modification according to specific comfort and support requirements. Given its flexibility, it is a common material for mattress building.

What are the benefits of Tencel cover?

The mattress cover is made of Tencel fabric, which is a natural fibre extracted from wood pulp. ActiproTM technology is used in the fabric to provide healthful protection against allergens, dust mites, and odours, which helps to maintain a clean, fresh, and healthy sleep environment. Actipro is an anti-bacterial treatment applied to the Tencel fabric that uses active probiotics. Actipro probiotic finish is a safe and effective natural solution for combating allergens without destroying the positive microorganisms. During manufacture, the Actipro microflora is attached to the cover fabric using natural clay technology. Actipro offers natural protection against house dust mites by neutralising the allergens.

Is Polyurethane Foam certified to Certi-PUR standards? Are formaldehyde and toxic substances regulated in Certi-PUR certified products?

The polyurethane foam is certified and complies with the requirements of the CertiPUR Health, Safety, and Environmental Standard. CertiPUR sets the most rigorous standard and ensures that polyurethane foams are free of harmful substances, which is an increasing concern among consumers. The CertiPUR programme offers customers the confidence and comfort of knowing that the polyurethane foam used in the mattresses met the standards for emissions, content, and durability and was tested by independent, accredited laboratories that are not affiliated with the manufacturer of the products being tested.

CertiPUR certification highlights:

No Harmful Chemicals: CertiPUR-certified foams are evaluated to verify they are FREE of dangerous substances such as ozone depleters, mercury, PBDE flame retardants, heavy metals, formaldehyde, and phthalates.

Low VOC Emissions: The certification tackles indoor air quality challenges by limiting the foam's volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. Low VOC emissions contribute to healthier indoor air quality.

Environmentally Friendly: CertiPUR certification does not specifically address the environmental impact of the foam, but it does reflect a dedication to generating foams that are more environmentally friendly than other conventional foams.

Durability: CertiPUR assesses the foam's durability and performance to guarantee that it meets or surpasses certain criteria. This helps ensure that the foam's integrity and function remain intact throughout time.

This mattress is free of formaldehyde and other hazardous components, which guarantees that you, as our valued customer, will receive a safe product. You may rest assured that by choosing a mattress constructed with CertiPUR-certified polyurethane foam, you are making a healthier and more mindful choice for your sleep environment.

Please see CertiPUR Certification 

Is the mattress entirely chemical free?

The Talalay 500 Latex Mattress does not contain any chemicals or harmful substances; it is halogen, metal, and chemical-free.

  • We use only 100% Natural Dunlop Latex, certified to the Euro-Latex® Eco Standard and  Oeko-Tex® Standard 100
  • The reflex foam is a high-density Polyurethane Foam, which is the industry's leading filler-free foam range and complies with the requirements of CertiPUR Health, Safety, and Environmental standards

  • The textiles in the Tencel Cover are certified to the Oeko-Tex® Standard 100

The certification affirms that the mattress is safe and does not pose a risk to the sleeper.

 

Is the mattress suitable for customers with allergies or sensitivities?

During manufacturing, latex is vulcanised at a temperature of more than 110 degrees for about 45 minutes, and this process kills all potential allergens. Latex and polyurethane foam are resistant to dust mites, which makes them a great alternative for those who suffer from allergies or asthma.

Is the mattress suitable restless sleepers?

You will need a mattress that is both cosy and firm enough to help you fall asleep quickly. A hybrid type, such as the Talalay 500 Latex Mattress, will provide the perfect level of pressure alleviation and support that the majority of restless sleepers require. When you turn, the movements are not distributed to the partner's side, meaning couples are not disturbed while sleeping. 

 

What fire retardant methods do you use to comply with UK Fire regulations?

According to UK law, all mattresses must comply with certain fire safety standards. It is a legal requirement for all mattresses to be made fire-retardant.

We chose to employ natural graphite in the top Latex layer. We use natural graphite, a mineral derived from Mother Nature, as the only natural fire-retardant additive in the latex layer. The graphite has fire-retardant properties, and when mixed with latex, it acts as a fire barrier.

The reflex foam is a high-density Polyurethane foam, which is CertiPUR-US® approved foam, made without mercury, lead, or other heavy metals. The foam is made without ozone depleters, PBDEs, TCEP, TCBPP, TDCP, and without TEPA (Tris) flame retardants. The reflex foam is sprayed with patented FR to comply with UK fire regulations, it is free from nasty chemicals such as antimony, bromine, and formaldehyde.

There is also a blue fire label attached to the mattress cover, confirming the mattress complies with BS7177 for low-hazard, domestic use and is safe to be used by babies.

Do you use any adhesives to bond different layers in the mattress?

We use water-based natural latex glue Simalfa 325, which is solvent and chemical free. The adhesive has Green Guard Gold Certification, and conforms to the many changing environmental regulations, proven to be completely harmless. The adhesive SIMALFA® 325 does not contain any substances or raw materials from animal products; therefore, it is vegan.

Who needs to choose a MEDIUM-FIRM mattress?

Sciatica: For people with sciatic nerve pain that migrates from the low back to the back of the thigh and calf, a deep, medium-firm latex or hybrid mattress is recommended. It will help to promote and maintain optimum spine alignment and alleviate pressure on the lower back and hips.

  • Medium-Firm comfort levels are recommended for heavier people, as they need denser support to keep their spines aligned or people who prefer a firmer feel on the surface
  • Front and back sleepers find firmer mattresses more comfortable as they keep the back and spine in the correct position during sleep

The bed base is very important; the same mattress will feel firmer on a solid top divan and softer on a sprung slatted base, for example. 

What is the best bed base to use in conjunction with the mattress? Is it compatible with Adjustable beds?

The mattress can be used with any durable and high-quality bed platform that provides adequate support, such as a solid top divan, a sprung edge divan, a slatted base, or a sprung slatted base. The mattress is compatible with Adjustable beds. However, it is essential to ensure that the gaps across the slats measure between 2 and 3 inches wide (5cm to 7.5cm). Using the mattress on a bed with a greater gap could cause damage and invalidate your guarantee. Also, please do not use the mattress on the floor, as the lack of ventilation may lead to mould and mildew buildup, which will revoke your guarantee.

Latex Sense reserves the right to refuse warranty repair or replacement if a new mattress becomes damaged due to being used on a bed base with inadequate slat gaps, a second-hand bed foundation with insufficient support, or if it is in an unsanitary condition.

 

Is the mattress durable?

Latex is a natural material with high elasticity and is also extremely durable. It always bounces back to its initial size and shape after long-lasting deformations and keeps a consistent feel throughout its life. High-density polyurethane foam has been praised for its resilience, which contributes to the mattress's overall lifespan.

Is the mattress sustainable and eco-friendly?

Sustainable construction techniques and materials are used to build the entire mattress. You may sleep soundly knowing that our mattresses are environmentally friendly. In addition, polyurethane foams are affordable and viable materials. They preserve the Earth’s natural resources by reducing the need for energy. We are committed to creating mattresses without memory foam's adverse environmental impacts

How long does the mattress break-in period last?

All latex mattresses have a break-in period, which is usually 30 days. Thus, many companies offer in-home sleep trials, which are intended to give customers the opportunity to adjust and fully evaluate the properties of their mattresses. The exact amount of time it takes to adapt to and get used to a new mattress depends on the type of mattress and how different your new mattress is from your old one. As the break-in period is significantly important, we strongly encourage customers to refrain from exchanging their mattresses before the initial 30 days are over.

Does the mattress come with a home trial, and how does the exchange policy work?

Every new mattress feels different, and your body needs some time to adjust and get used to the new feel. It is normal for the mattress to feel a bit strange and not as comfortable in the beginning, but the longer you sleep on it, the better you will experience its benefits.

That is why we offer a free home trial with free exchanges and free returns for UK mainland customers.

  • The initial home trial period is 50 days, counting from the same day the mattress is delivered to you
  • If you find the mattress uncomfortable, we can exchange it with something more suitable, or you can return it straightaway
  • If you decide to exercise your right to exchange, you can try the replacement mattress for another 50 days and still return it for a full refund if it proves unsatisfactory
How long is the mattress guarantee, and what does it cover?

The Talalay 500 Latex Mattress comes with a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee against faults in materials and poor workmanship (including sagging). The warranty covers any visible indentations more than 2cm deep.

  • We require a copy of the original sales receipt as proof of your purchase
  • Our product guarantee covers repair or replacement of the original mattress; i.e., if the product is declared faulty, we will not issue a refund but will repair or replace the product accordingly
  • Following a replacement or repair, the guarantee will remain valid from the date of the original purchase
  • The guarantee is valid from the date of the original purchase, is for your benefit as the original purchaser only, and is not transferable to any other person
  • If you sell or transfer your product, the subsequent owner accepts the product “as is” and has no rights to claim under the guarantee
  • In the event of a dispute, Latex Sense may request product inspection by an impartial third party, such as ISM Networks (Furniture Services), before agreeing to undergo repairs or replacements. ISM Networks are reputable service providers and experts. The inspections are carried out by highly skilled technicians and include an assessment of the mattress and bed base

A tear in the fabric, which can be caused by accidental damage such as the fabric catching some sharp object, will not invoke the warranty as this is not a manufacturing fault or defect and therefore is NOT covered by the guarantee.

Latex Sense reserves the right to refuse warranty repair or replacement if a new mattress becomes damaged due to being used on a bed base with inadequate slat gaps, a second-hand bed foundation with insufficient support, or if it is in an unsanitary condition.

Latex Sense reserves the right to supply an equivalent alternative, in the instance where the mattress in question has been discontinued and is not repairable. 

Clause 22  outlines our company's product warranty terms in full detail.
