While searching for cot bed mattresses for your baby, it is better to go for natural fibers instead of synthetic fibers because a natural fiber mattress is completely non-toxic. Fibers like coconut fiber, cotton or natural wool is used in abundance to make mattresses worldwide. Moreover, the covers from soft cotton can provide much more comfort to your baby. Making your baby sleep on synthetic material can be bad and they do not last long too.
Are natural variety better than synthetic fibers for cot bed mattresses?
Natural Organic Mattress
Sleeping on foam or any other synthetic material can be harmful for you and especially your baby. Synthetic fibers retain the body heat and acts like an oven. This raises the body temperature and makes sleep lighter. However, if you make your baby sleep on natural fiber cot bed mattress, you will actually help your baby have a sound and healthy sleep because natural fiber breathes and regulates its temperature. Besides, natural fiber cot bed mattress lasts really long. Natural fibers also benefit from sunning and airing but synthetic fibers gets destroyed by airing and sunning.
Another disadvantage of synthetic fiber is that they release toxic gases and is very unsafe for small babies. There is no such problem with natural cot bed mattresses. That is why you can go for the natural variety like wool which is a perfect support for joints, muscles and spine. Besides, wool mattresses help to maintain body temperature and it will help your baby stay cooler during summer and warm during the winters.
Different types of natural fibers used in mattresses
Natural products like cotton, wool as well as silk are really good for the body. Silk is very popular as a mattress material because of its slippery quality and to make it even better silk is often blended with bamboo fabric for making cot bed mattress. Bamboo fabric is a natural antibacterial and has a beautiful luster, so it is often mixed with silk to make comfortable sleeping surfaces.
The coconut coir mattress is another very popular cot-bed mattress for babies. This type of mattress is made from coconut husks coated in natural latex to make a supportive and breathable layer. Another popular cot bed mattress is the Mohair Mat which is made from horsetail hair - the longest and the most durable natural fiber in the world. In a Mohair Mat, horse tail hair is stuffed in between layers of organic coir to provide extra support. Silky Mohair fleece is provided in the outside which acts as a good insulator.
