Savvy Rest Organic Mattresses

Green Mountain Organics offers pure, organic mattresses made with natural latex, organic wool and organic cotton from Savvy Rest. Our mattresses are free from all harmful chemicals, comfortable and hypo-allergenic. If you are interested in viewing the certifications, download and view them in pdf format from the Product Information page.

Savvy Rest mattresses are also pressure relieving and customizable. You can make your mattress as soft or as firm as you like, and you can change it after you own it. You can try your Savvy Rest organic mattress for 90 nights. During this time you can swap out layers of latex to make your mattress softer or firmer. Do this until it feels just right. You are responsible for the shipping only. The latex is on us.

Choose 2, 3, or 4 layers of 3" latex. The Organic Tranquility Mattresses have 6" total of natural latex and our Organic Serenity Mattresses have 9" total of natural latex. They are encased in organic cotton and organic wool. You can also choose our Organic Serenity Pillowtop Mattress. It has a 9" core of natural dunlop latex and an additional 3" of natural talalay latex in the mattress topper for a total of 12" of natural latex. The Green Mountain Organics Custom Mattresses are a popular configuration of the Savvy Rest mattresses. To further help in choosing a mattress, download the Mattress Questionnaire (pdf).

Choose either Natural Dunlop or Natural Talalay Latex; neither types of latex nor types of rubber trees, but types of processing. Dunlop is a process that’s been around since 1929 and involves the traditional manufacturing method. Talalay is the name of a newer process.

When Dunlop latex is made, the serum is frothed in a centrifuge, poured into a mold, covered and baked at a low temperature. The natural sediments in the latex settle to the bottom of the mold, which yields a layer that is slightly firmer on the bottom side.

In the Talalay process, after the latex is poured, the mold is sealed and air is vacuumed out. Then the mold is flash-frozen to stabilize the material. This produces a more consistent cell structure, as some of the weaker air bubbles are vacuumed out. Because of the added steps, Talalay latex is more expensive than Dunlop.

Having worked with both Dunlop and Talalay latex, we can say with confidence that neither is superior to the other. While it is true that Talalay has a wider range of ILDs, or firmness grades, in our experience Dunlop is heavier and more durable. If you like a very soft mattress, you will want Talalay. (For example, a layer of Soft Talalay is softer than a layer of Soft Dunlop.) If you have children who mistake their mattress for a trampoline, you will want Dunlop. That is why we carry both. The Green Mountain Organics Custom Mattress is a combination of the two!
