Spring mattresses
Spring mattresses (Bonnell or Pocket Springs) are a timeless choice with proven effectiveness. Thanks to their structure, they offer:
- Support and durability, ideal for those seeking a more stable feel.
- Elasticity, which facilitates movement and changes in position during sleep.
- Good ventilation, as air circulation between the springs helps regulate the temperature.
- Long service life, even under conditions of daily and intensive use.
- They are a suitable solution for those seeking a balance between support and comfort, but also for family use or hospitality spaces.
If the consumer is looking for more anatomical support and reduced motion transfer (ideal for double mattresses), we recommend choosing a mattress with independent Pocket Springs.
Non-metallic mattresses
Non-metallic mattresses (without springs) are based on natural materials such as natural latex, coconut fiber, wool, and cotton. They stand out for:
- Natural and healthy, thanks to their breathable, eco-friendly, and antimicrobial materials.
- Adaptability to the body, with excellent anatomical behavior that hugs the curves and reduces pressure points.
- Silent operation, without mechanical parts, for a feeling of complete calm and relaxation.
- High durability and consistent performance over time.
Conclusion
If you prioritize support and stability, then a spring mattress is the right choice. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a more natural sleeping experience, with an emphasis on ergonomics, elasticity, and pure materials, then a non-metal mattress will suit you better.
Bonnell springs
Bonnell springs are the most classic and timeless spring technology. They are interconnected, creating a sturdy and stable surface. They offer a consistent and flat feel, making them the ideal choice for those who prefer a firmer sleep or are looking for a reliable and more economical solution. With their uniform structure, they respond evenly to the body and are a tried and tested choice for guest rooms, holiday homes, or those who love the certainty of stability.
Pocket springs (independent springs)
Pocket Springs are the most modern support technology, designed to offer superior comfort and personalized support. Each spring is located in a separate pocket, operates independently, and adapts perfectly to the curves of the body. In this way, the mattress properly hugs the body, reduces pressure points, and helps maintain ideal spinal alignment.
In addition, pocket springs minimize motion transfer, offering uninterrupted sleep — even when your partner moves. They are quiet, reduce vibrations, and provide a sleeping experience that combines tranquility, support, and luxury.
If you are looking for a mattress for everyday use that truly ensures quality sleep, pocket spring technology is the top choice.
A mattress topper is a thin “layer” 7–10 cm thick, which is placed on top of the customer’s existing mattress, upgrading its feel and improving the quality of sleep. It is important to use it as a supplement to the consumer’s existing mattress and not as a replacement.
The reasons that lead consumers to purchase flooring vary depending on the case.
First and foremost, it is important to note that purchasing a mattress topper is NOT considered necessary for the customer to have a healthy, quality, and restful sleep. Its use is complementary and auxiliary to the mattress, and it acquires the characteristics of the existing mattress on which the person sleeps.
Therefore, purchasing it is recommended and encouraged, provided that the customer’s existing mattress is in good condition. If it is not, purchasing a mattress topper will be futile.
Beyond the different needs that may lead someone to purchase a mattress topper, Dunlopillo lists the main reasons why its use is recommended:
1. Change of sensation
A mattress topper can enhance the elasticity of the existing mattress, vary its firmness, and offer a greater sense of relaxation.
For example, if the consumer has a mattress in excellent condition, but finds it too hard, they can choose a medium-firm latex mattress to soften it without completely changing its character.
2. Increased support for the body
The mattress topper adapts to the curves of the body, reducing pressure points and providing anatomical support. A natural latex mattress topper is an excellent choice for those who want to give their existing mattress increased elasticity and maximum support.
3. Height increase
Beyond its supportive role, a mattress topper can be used to increase the height of either the existing mattress or the one the consumer intends to purchase.
A mattress topper usually adds 5 to 10 centimeters of extra height, changing both the appearance and functionality of the mattress. The increased distance from the bed frame provides more elasticity, softness, and a light feeling to the body.
With Dunlopillo latex mattresses, customers also have the option of choosing different levels of firmness and integrating the mattress into the mattress cover, if desired.
4. Mattress protection against wear and tear
The mattress topper can also protect the mattress from future wear and tear and stains. In this way, it acts as an additional cover, helping to extend its life.
