5 Tips for a more sustainable night’s sleept
Sustainable living doesn’t stop with what we eat or how we travel. In the bedroom too, we can make conscious choices that have a big impact on both the environment and our health. After all, we spend a third of our lives in bed, which means the materials in our mattress, pillows, and bedding are just as important as our daily habits.
At Tuur®, we believe comfort and sustainability go hand in hand. With these 5 practical tips, you can enjoy an eco-friendly night’s sleep without compromising on ergonomics or sleep quality.
1. Choose natural materials
Synthetic foams and chemical additives are often difficult to recycle and leave a heavy ecological footprint. They can also contribute to an unhealthy sleep climate. Natural materials such as natural latex, wool, and GOTS-certified organic cotton are renewable, breathable, and exceptionally durable.
All Tuur® mattresses, pillows, and bedding are made from 100% natural materials. Better for you, and better for our planet.
2. Look for independent certifications
Sustainability is a buzzword these days, but not every claim can be trusted. Independent labels offer transparency and reassurance:
- OEKO-TEX®: guarantees no harmful substances.
- GOTS: ensures cotton is organically grown without pesticides.
- FSC®: guarantees responsible forest management for wood and latex products.
Tuur® products carry several of these certifications, so you know your mattress or pillow is a truly sustainable choice: not just a marketing claim.
3. Invest in long-lasting quality
Replacing a mattress after only five years is costly for the environment and for your wallet. A high-quality mattress that lasts 10 to 15 years requires fewer raw materials, less transport, and produces less waste. Plus, you’ll sleep better and healthier every night.
At Tuur®, we use single-layer natural latex that retains its resilience and ergonomic properties for many years. Ensuring you sleep both sustainably and comfortably.
4. Care and protect
Even the most sustainable products last longer with proper care. A breathable mattress protector keeps out dirt and moisture, while a removable cover is easy to clean. Protecting your mattress and pillows significantly extends their lifespan, reducing the need for replacements.
Our bedding collection includes protectors, pillowcases, and duvet covers that are both practical and supportive of a healthy sleep climate.
5. Think circular: close the loop
True sustainability goes beyond purchase. What happens when a mattress or pillow reaches the end of its life? Products made from a single material and designed for easy disassembly have the best chance of being recycled and reused.
At Tuur®, we design according to these circular principles:
- Recyclable latex core
- Removable, washable, and replaceable covers
- No chemical glues that hinder recycling
This way, you contribute not only today but also in the future to a more sustainable worl
Sustainable sleep without compromise
A sustainable night’s sleep doesn’t mean sacrificing comfort. Quite the opposite: natural materials, certified quality, and circular design ensure you sleep healthier, fresher, and with peace of mind.
