Craft & Materials
The Craftsmanship & Materials Behind Every WHITE Mattress
Sleep is shaped through the balance of craftsmanship and materials.
Great sleep restores balance to body and mind.
At WHITE, this balance defines how each mattress is made.
Some are crafted entirely by hand — layer by layer, with precision and care.
HORSEHAIR
Horsehair allows air to circulate naturally through the mattress, helping regulate temperature and maintain a fresh sleeping environment throughout the night.
COCONUT FIBER
Coconut fibre provides durability and support, helping maintain the mattress structure while allowing it to breathe naturally.
NATURAL LATEX
Elastic and breathable, natural latex adapts to the body’s movements while maintaining resilient support.
WOOL
Wool offers natural insulation and softness, creating a comfortable and balanced sleep environment.
COTTON
Cotton adds a gentle layer of softness while naturally supporting airflow and moisture balance.
FAQs
From materials and comfort to ordering and everyday care, these answers will help you get to know WHITE and make a more informed choice for your home or hospitality property.
What does handcrafted mean at WHITE?
It means skilled craftspeople take an active role in making each mattress and caring for its details. Construction methods vary by model. In our fully handmade designs, building and securing the mattress layer by layer is central to how it is made.
What makes a handcrafted mattress different?
In handcrafted WHITE mattresses, the craftsperson ties the layers together with a needle and hemp thread instead of gluing them. Tying holds the materials in place while preserving their elasticity, giving the overall construction its characteristic feel.
We select fine natural materials such as wool, cotton, horsehair, hemp and natural latex, depending on the model. They differ substantially from petroleum-based materials such as polyester and polyurethane foam, which are found in many mass-produced mattresses with glued layers.
Carefully chosen materials and handcrafted construction, designed for a distinctive sense of comfort and a longer lifespan.
What is inside a WHITE mattress?
The composition varies by model. The collection includes materials such as natural latex, wool, cotton, horsehair and coconut fibre, alongside different spring systems and foams. Each product description explains the construction of that particular mattress.
What does natural latex add to a mattress?
Natural latex is elastic and responds to the body’s movements. In models that include it, it contributes to responsive comfort, resilience and breathability. The overall feel still depends on how all the layers work together.
Why use horsehair and coconut fibre?
These natural materials serve different purposes. Horsehair supports airflow, while coconut fibre adds structure and stability. They feature in selected WHITE models, according to the composition and intended feel of each design.
