How is Essentia Organic Foam Different from Memory Foam?
Essentia’s Beyond Organic™ standards mean we proudly use organic, natural materials, such as Hevea Milk, GOLS Certified Organic Latex, Natural Dunlop Latex, Organic Essential Oils, Natural Plant Extracts, and GOTS Certified Organic Cotton. These aren’t materials you’re going to find in most mattresses at a big-box store. An Essentia natural organic mattress differs in quality when compared to regular memory foam mattresses or spring mattresses.
Other memory foam mattress companies often use materials that are filled with toxic chemicals. Regular memory foam mattresses are often made out of poly foam materials, which are known to hold fire retardants. Spring mattresses also house dust mites, which can cause allergies, like sneezing, coughing, and watery eyes. Meanwhile, an Essentia organic mattress is a great solution for people who suffer from allergies.
Do Essentia Mattresses Have Flame Retardants?
Did you know that we are required by US law to use a flame retardant on mattresses sold in America?
Picking a non-toxic flame retardant that did not affect the performance of our mattresses was of utmost importance. This is why we use Kevlar fabric. While it is the most expensive flame retardant option, it allows us to use a non-toxic fabric that does not go against our Beyond Organic values.
Essentia is proud to have an allergy friendly and vegan mattress free of wool or wool padding.
Think of the kevlar fabric much like a sock that we place the mattress in and then sew up on the open end, this is a fabric layer you will find under the GOTS-certified organic cotton cover. There are no toxic flame retardants sprayed or used in our GOLS and GOTS certified organic factory.
How Do These Mattresses Ship?
As the leaders in environmental manufacturing, this means that we also had to prioritize a way to ship our dense mattresses to reduce our carbon footprint. In order to do this, we have developed a specially fitted roll-pack machine to compress and roll our mattresses into boxes that take up 75% less space on the delivery truck.
All mattresses are compressed and rolled, shipped in a tall skinny box. In fact, you may confuse it for a carpet if the weight was no issue. We offer FedEx delivery to your door on every order in the contiguous United States.
The Classic REM5 and Dormeuse REM9 in king and California king size 10" only ship via complimentary In-Home Delivery as there is some assembly required.
You may opt to upgrade your shipping to In Home Delivery for $249 per mattress or foundation. With this service, you will receive a call to schedule your delivery and the team will set up your new mattress. They can also remove your old mattress if you choose.
What Organic Certifications Does Essentia Have?
Essentia is a GOLS (Global Organic Latex Standard) 3.0 certified facility CU 847578, able to manufacture organic finished goods. Essentia’s supply chain has demonstrated that there are procedures in place to properly track and manage organic materials up to the point where they are shipped to the client. Essentia has demonstrated it has a system in place that will allow traceability and proper storage of all its GOLS components at all stages of production.
Each Essentia mattress and pillow is also GOLS certified and made with≥ 95% certified organic latex, the highest possible standard for organic latex, and is the main component of our patented Beyond Latex organic foam formulas.
Certification for organic fibers, the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is a leading textile processing standard. GOTS includes ecological and social criteria with independent certification of the entire textile supply chain. Essentia holds a GOTS 4.0 factory certification, ensuring that the entire supply chain has demonstrated proper practices to track and manage organic materials. All organic cotton used is also GOTS certified.
How Long Can an Essentia Mattress Last?
Essentia’s mattresses feature a 20-year prorated warranty! To demonstrate the durability of Essentia’s high-quality mattresses, a 250lb hexagonal shape roller passes over the mattress 200,000 times, which simulates 10 years of use. What was found is that the Essentia mattress experienced a loss of less than a quarter inch of its original height at the 10-year mark. Based on these results, it’s safe to say you can expect your Essentia to stand the test time, with the added security of your twenty-year prorated warranty.

Dazed & Confused? Learn Why Essentia is the Best Organic Mattress:
Pressure Relief is Comfort
Pain is a sleep stimulant that can keep you tossing and turning all night. Essentia's patented Beyond Latex organic foam formulas are designed to ensure you are experiencing the ultimate pressure relief.
Jack Dell'Accio, Essentia CEO & Founder, explains when it comes to sleep, the discussion mainly focuses solely on comfort, but sleeping better starts with pressure relief or pressure redistribution.
Beyond Latex™ vs Latex
Unlike other brands, our Beyond Latex' organic foam is not a memory foam made from polyurethane, a petrochemical and type of plastic, but rather our GOLS certified organic latex foam is a slow response organic latex foam.
The number one reason we sought to recreate an organic version of memory foam was to create a clean sleep environment and protect Essentia sleepers from the VOCs that emit from chemical based foams while still experiencing amazing comfort.
Impervious to Dust Mites
You won't find any wool, springs, cotton, or fiber batting that can act as a nesting ground to dust mites and that's because Essentia prioritizes allergy free sleep surfaces.
Dr. Robert G. Hamilton, Ph.D. and Director, Dermatology, Allergy and Clinical Immunology (DACI) Reference Laboratory at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine found that the molded nature of the natural latex memory foam made by Essentia is essentially impervious to house dust mite inhabitation and growth.
How to Shop Organic
Not all organic mattresses are created equal, and not all certifications mean the same thing!
One thing we know is that the mattress shopping journey can be a confusing one, so many things sound the same but the pricing can vary drastically. There are a few reasons for this, and we want to be sure you are fully armed to understand why every mattress labeled 'organic', 'natural' or 'eco-friendly' are not created equally.
