Construction
The topper’s core contains a blend of hypoallergenic down alternative and lyocell fill, which is naturally soft and breathable. A substantial 700 GSM (grams per meter) fill weight gives the topper a soft, cloud-like feel. The box quilting ensures the fill is evenly distributed for ultimate plushness. The topper is wrapped in a percale cotton cover.
The core of the topper is organic latex foam, which has a responsive, buoyant feel. Then, there’s temperature-regulating organic cotton wool batting quilted around the latex layer. This is all encased in a breathable organic cotton cover that promotes airflow and contributes to the moisture-wicking properties of the topper. The cover is treated with Guardin™, a botanical antimicrobial solution designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew.
