Description
Essentia’s groundbreaking patented slow response organic foam technology evolves with an all-new Active formula of our Beyond Latex™ organic foam.
The Classic REM5 Active features a responsive sleep surface designed to support your body as it moves and shifts through the night. This high-density active foam formula automatically adapts to your sleeping position, providing optimal spinal alignment and pressure relief whether you sleep on your back, stomach, or side.
The Classic REM5 Active features 7 of Essentia's 8 Key Elements including promoting clean bedroom air, organic latex support cores with no springs, proper spinal alignment for all sleep positions, allergy friendly as it is free of latex proteins or wool , mold protection, the ability to upgrade to EMF Protection foam, and active cooling as the sleep surface cools up to 5 degrees over an 8 hour sleep cycle for truly rejuvenating sleep.
The Classic REM5 Active is available in all standard mattress sizes and is 10 inches in height.
How does this mattress feel?
The Classic REM5 Active foam formula is a responsive sleep surface designed to support your body as it moves and shifts through the night.
The comfort of this mattress will be more of a medium feel with a medium firm support.
It's generally very hard to describe a foam mattress as firm or soft, which may come as a surprise to you as the mattress industry relies on these terms so deeply. But it’s important to note that the optimal performance of a foam mattress does rely on it being on a firm and sturdy foundation.
Why is this important? Foam contours to your body, and if you are using a weak bed frame or a box spring it can potentially change the overall feel and performance of the mattress in regards to contour and support.

For all the hot sleepers; the cooling latex mattress technology helps you sleep 5 degrees cooler than your natural body temperature. This is one of the best latex mattresseses to be found and it features a premium kevlar lining combined with eco friendly materials which makes the REM5 memory foam mattress completely VOC-free and fireproof, all with a firmness that suits your needs for many different sleeping positions and amazing pressure relief night after night.
With Essentia you can find the best organic mattress for all sleeping positions! Choose firm for back and stomach sleepers, medium for combination sleepers, or soft for side sleepers. All at the same great price!
While some of us struggle with comfort and change sleeping positions often, what we need in a matress is pressure relief. This all organic bed can change your life. All latex mattresses do not offer the pressure relief the REM5 can offer. Wether you need a firm mattress, medium firm, or soft mattress; the REM5 is available in all these mattress types.
This organic mattress is made with our proprietary natural latex foam; derived from rubber trees and formulated to be hypoallergenic, soft yet supportive, extremely plush, and luxurious! Most innerspring mattresses are made of synthetic materials, age poorly and get uncomfortable over time, unlike our latex mattresses.
Essentia offers some of the best latex mattresses you will find, and they are all handmade at our factory in Canada with certified organic materials!
Certified Organic Mattress: Green & Healthy
Essentia always strives to create the best organic latex mattresses that never make you choose between performance or health! Each component used in our GOLS (Global Organic Latex Standard) and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified organic factory is nontoxic, ethically sourced, and certified organic. In fact, Essentia’s skilled craftsmen do not need protective gear while blending our patented Beyond Latex™ organic foam formulas because clean air is at the core of our values.
Built Organically
1. GOTS Certified Organic Cotton Cover: Protects the natural latex mattress & can be easily removed for simple and fast cleaning.
2. Bucaneve Organic Cotton Liner: A fabric liner covers the latex mattress under the main cover to prevent wear and tear of the foam.
3. GOLS Certified Organic Latex Support Core: Ensure proper back support and spinal alignment for many sleeping positions.
4. Beyond Latex™ Slow Response Organic Foam: Ensures the elimination of negative space for back support and pressure relief.
5. Beyond Latex™ Active Formula Organic Foam with Activated Quartz: This layer features enhanced cooling properties and the responsive, high-density active formula foam that automatically adapts to your sleeping position, providing optimal spinal alignment and pressure relief whether you sleep on your back, stomach, or side.
WHAT YOU WON'T FIND: No springs, no polyurethane foam, no fiber batting, no wool, & no latex proteins. Tested by the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, these VOC & allergy-free organic latex mattresses support a safer, healthier home.
Activated Quartz Foam
The coolest stone you’ll sleep on, and the opposite of rock hard! Essentia’s newest technology pulls from the properties of quantum energy by incorporating activated quartz into the patented organic latex foam formulas to enhance the cooling effects you experience.
The sleep surface of the Classic REM5 latex mattress is proven to sleep up to 5 degrees cooler over an 8-hour sleep cycle helping to eliminate heat as a sleep stimulant!
EMF Protection Foam
Avoiding EMF radiation from 3G, 4G, and 5G waves in our connected world is almost impossible today.
While you may not be able to see it, the chaotic EMF radiation waves affect your body and in turn your sleep! The unnatural waves directly affect your blood cells and how they flow through your body causing them to cluster and clot, Essentia has identified this via dark film microscopy. This in turn disrupts the flow of oxygen through the body, at night this becomes a sleep disruptor as your brain needs oxygen to properly cycle through all the steps needed for your body’s daily recovery. Essentia’s EMF protection foam upgrade can be added to your Classic REM5 mattress which is proven to mitigate the effects of EMF radiation and return your blood cells to their natural free-flowing state.
Essentia’s 8 Key Elements of Regenerative Sleep
Creating a sleep environment that produces enhanced REM and Deep Sleep cycles means we must eliminate any stimulant that can affect your sleep and disrupt these natural cycles. By eliminating sleep disruptors such as pain, tossing and turning, allergens, heat, EMFs, and chemicals you will experience an increased rate of recovery that improves both your mental and physical wellness.
Each Essentia latex mattress model will offer a different level of deep sleep based on the elements highlighted. The Classic REM5 natural luxury latex mattress features 6 key elements built-in with the ability to upgrade to our EMF protection foam to add a 7th!
Active Cooling
Essentia’s patented Beyond Latex™ organic foam does more than simply cool, it actively pulls heat away from the body & through the mattress, allowing you to sleep cool all night. With the addition of activated quartz to the foam formulas, not only will you feel the coolness of the sleep surface on contact, but the surface temperature of the Classic REM5 will sleep up to 5 degrees cooler at night, which is a game changer for hot sleepers!
Allergy Friendly
There is no wool, fiber batting, or latex proteins in any Essentia organic sleep product. This not only eliminates the nesting ground that dust mites live & breed in but also ensures that a person with a latex allergy can also sleep on Essentia. Tested by Dr. Robert G. Hamilton of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Essentia mattresses are impervious to dust mites & do not contain the latex proteins that may trigger allergies. Thus less exposure to allergens.
Posture Support
Essentia’s patented Beyond Latex™ organic foam eliminates negative space for proper back support and your most comfortable sleep ever. The GOLS certified latex (#CU 847578) support core featured in all Essentia organic mattresses ensures proper spinal alignment.
Optimized Oxygen
Patented Beyond Latex™ organic foam eliminates pressure points & evenly distributes body weight allowing for oxygen & blood to flow more freely, this helps to eliminate numbness and soreness. Exposure to high levels of oxygen encourages the brain to remain in deep, restorative sleep cycles.
Certified Organic
Essentia uses only the highest quality, ethically sourced best organic components. By using organic and natural components, you reduce VOC exposure so your body can stop fighting outside stimulants and spend time recovering from the day. All Essentia latex mattresses, pillows, pet beds, and crib mattresses are made in our GOLS and GOTS certified organic (#CU 847578) factory.
Mold Protection
Mold is one of the hidden dangers in your sleep environment, and isn’t caused by any one factor, it can stem from the air, buildings, and other environmental elements. It is estimated that 22% of the population is vulnerable to black mold exposure which can cause chronic fatigue, mood swings, allergies, asthma, and with some chronic exposure may even result in cancer. Essentia’s high acidity Beyond Latex organic foam formula ensures that even if you are in an environment susceptible to mold, we are creating a safe sleep space by diminishing the colonization and growth of mold on the mattress.
EMF Protection
In today’s world, it’s almost impossible to avoid EMF radiation from 3G, 4G, and 5G waves in our environment. Even though you cannot see them, these waves directly affect your body and in turn your sleep! Through dark film microscopy Essentia has identified that your blood cells cluster and clot disrupting the natural flow of blood through the body when exposed to EMF radiation. Optimizing oxygen flow through your body is a major key to deep, restorative sleep. Essentia’s EMF barrier foam is proven to return your blood cells to their natural free-flowing state thus allowing oxygen to flow freely through your body and improving your sleep quality. You can choose to upgrade your Dormeuse REM9 to include the EMF barrier foam.
Beyond Organic®
Essentia’s vegan mattresses are thoughtfully designed and sourced naturally to always provide clean, ethical, and life-replenishing sleep. Being true to our Beyond Organic® values, every Essentia product made in our GOLS and GOTS certified organic factory is 100% certified nontoxic, vegan, cruelty-free, biodegradable, and also has no toxic flame retardants.

We take pride in the fact that our team works in an environment that doesn’t require protective wear or excessive ventilation as all of our components are safe and healthy, so much so that we call our latex foam blending room the kitchen!

How Does the Classic REM5 Active Feel?
The Classic REM5 Active foam formula is a responsive sleep surface designed to support your body as it moves and shifts through the night.
The comfort of this mattress will be more of a medium feel with a medium firm support.
It's generally very hard to describe a foam mattress as firm or soft, which may come as a shock to you as the mattress industry relies on these terms so deeply. But it’s important to note that the optimal performance of a foam mattress does rely on it being on a firm and sturdy foundation.
Why is this important? Foam contours to your body, and if you are using a weak bed frame or a box spring it can potentially change the overall feel and performance of the mattress in regards to contour and support.
What Foundation Can I Use?
Your new Essentia mattress works perfectly on our vertebase foundation or Rize adjustable foundation.
You may also use your Essentia on a slatted bed base. Should you opt for slats, ensure that each slat is completely flat and firm (no bowing upwards or plastic parts) and that there are no more than 3 inches of space in between each slat.
Please ensure that you are using a proper foundation option with your Essentia as an improper foundation may affect your warranty. A box spring should not be used unless the inside does not contain actual springs but is a firm surface.
No Toxic Flame Retardants
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.
Did you know that we are required by US law to use a flame retardant on mattresses sold in America? As we manufacture our mattresses in Canada, we can ship a mattress without the kevlar fabric if we have a doctor’s note on hand. Chat with us to learn more.
How do 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 to non-remote locations of Canada.
You may opt to upgrade your shipping to In Home Delivery for $399 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.
For deliveries not on the Island of Vancouver, a remote island that requires multiple ferry trips, or in rural British Columbia, your order may be subject to delivery charges based on your address. If this is the case, our customer care team will reach out to you prior to shipping.
Please note that we must have a full shipping address in order to ship your order. We cannot deliver to post office boxes (PO Boxes) or APOs.

Care for Your Mattress
- Your Essentia mattress will never be flipped, there is only one surface to sleep on. The proper sleep surface is the top of the mattress with the beige organic cotton cover.
- Should you choose to do so, you can rotate your mattress once a year but this is not a required step.
-We do not recommend the use of a waterproof cover with our mattresses unless the situation calls for it such as a small child learning to potty train, worries about an animal having an accident, or any such situation that may result in the bed being soiled.
- In the event there is a small accident or spill on your mattress don’t fret! Your first step will be to absorb as much of the excess liquid as possible with a dry cloth. If you feel the need for surface cleaning we do not recommend the use of any chemical cleaners. You can choose to use essential oils in water such as tea tree and lavender. Allow the surface to fully air dry before putting the covers back on.
- The GOTS certified organic cotton cover is machine washable. As organic cotton can be affected by heat please only wash in cold water using a mild eco-friendly detergent. Allow to air dry.
- Do not use bleach or other chemical cleaners on your mattress.
- You should be using your mattress on a flat, rigid, breathable surface. The mattress should not be used on the floor.
Labels on Your Mattress
When you receive your mattress, there will be a few labels affixed to it. The first you will notice is the tag or flag on the corner of the foot of the mattress that will show your model name.
If you chose to upgrade your foam to our EMF protection foam, you will also find a tag that confirms this.
At the head of the mattress, where you will also find the head of the zipper, will be the law labels, GOTS certified organic label and the Beyond Organic label. Here at Essentia, we do not use any synthetic foams or polyurethane foams. There are no chemical adhesives used to construct our mattresses, we do use a solvent-free, GreenGuard Gold certified, water-based adhesive where needed. For mattresses shipped to the United States, you will see noted the Kevlar fabric non-toxic fire barrier. We do not use any chemical flame retardant or spray any chemicals in our factory.

20 Year Mattress Warranty
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.
