Buying a mattress is an important, long-term decision. We spend about a third of our lives sleeping in close contact with the materials and fabrics of our mattress. Furthermore, good-quality sleep has a decisive impact on our family, work, and social lives. For this reason, we believe it is essential to consider certain key factors when choosing a mattress. Below, we present ten points to consider when choosing a mattress and, specifically, why you should choose a 100% natural Kipli mattress.
1. Adaptable and optimal comfort
One of the first factors to consider is comfort and the mattress’s ability to adapt to different people, climates, and sleeping positions. At Kipli, we offer a single type of mattress, which we’ve designed to meetor everyone’s unique comfort needs and to follow the natural cycle of the seasons.
That is why the Kipli mattress consists of two layers, both made of 100% natural latex. The 15-cm support layer has a higher density, with a value of approximately 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. This layer offers firmer support and is particularly well-suited for summer. The seven distinct zones also provide varied support that adapts perfectly to all areas of the body. The top layer, 5 cm thick, has a lower density, approximately 6 on a scale of 1 to 10. This layer offers a softer,more enveloping comfortand is particularly suitable for the winter months. In fact, as contact between the body and the mattress surface increases, the sensation of warmth intensifies. The Kipli mattress can therefore be used on either side depending on your preferred comfort level and the season.
2. Natural and Eco-friendly
Choosing a natural mattress is essential to avoid prolonged exposure to toxic and harmful substances. Many materials release toxic substances, such as furniture, fabrics, and paints. Mattresses can also contain this type of substance, particularly those made of polyurethane foam or memory foam. These types of mattresses contain substances harmfulto health, such as: benzene, chlorine, formaldehyde, methylene chloride, solvents, perfluorooctane sulfonic acid,and volatileorganic compounds(VOCs). Long-term exposure to these chemicals can cause serious health problems.
The Kipli mattress is made exclusively from natural materials that contain no toxic or harmful substances. Choosing a completely natural mattress like Kipli means making a choice that protects our health by ensuring that one of the items we use most throughout the day—and to which we are most exposed—does not emit harmful substances. Sleeping on a Kipli means choosing a mattress that respects both the environment and people. Natural latex is harvested from the lush plantations of Hevea, a magnificent tree that contributes not only to the reforestation of areas that would otherwise be at risk, but also to the maintenance of a supply chain that employs local labor in a respectful, , and dignified manner.
3. Fair and transparent pricing
Choosing a Kipli means purchasing a mattress of the highest quality. All too often, we find ourselves buying products whose cost structure is completely skewed toward marketing and promotion rather than focusing on the product itself and its quality. In Kipli’s cost structure, however, the product accounts for a significantly larger percentage than other items such as marketing and promotion.
4. Maximum transparency and integrity
We strive to offer you a top-of-the-line mattress at an affordable price by keeping our margins low and focusing on facts, emphasizing the transparency of our certifications, materials, and production processa. Kipli presents itself as a more transparent alternative, focused on your health and product quality, while maintaining fair prices that allow us to treat people and nature with fairness and respect throughout the entire supply chain.
5. Made in Italy & Highest Quality
Kipli is handcrafted and 100% made in Italy. The design of the slats and the engineering of our mattress are the result of twenty years of experience in manufacturing mattresses made from 100% natural latex. The Kipli cover is crafted and produced by hand at our factory in Turin using the finest materials. Our cotton and the finest wool combine to create a completely natural cover that pairs perfectly with the Kipli mattressli.
6. Durability over time
100% natural latex is one of the most durable materials available. In this regard, it is interesting to look at the results of the CATAS test. This test is conducted by subjecting the mattress to a weight of approximately 150 kilograms and then moving it about 60,000 times. The Kipli mattress received a score of 99/100, one of the highest possible scores, demonstrating its extremely high durability rating.
7. Antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-allergic
Latex mattresses and pillows are particularly suitable for anyone allergic to dust mites. Thanks to latex’s inherent high breathability, these products do not retain moisture, and therefore do not provide conditions conducive to dust mite infestation. The anti-allergic properties of the Kipli mattress are also confirmed by Bureau Veritas certification. Furthermore, natural latex does not provide a favorable environment for the growth of bacteria, fungi, and mold, as confirmed by tests conducted by ABC Research.
8. Maximum breathability
Thanks to its naturally cellular structure, natural latex is highly breathable, allowing for full ventilation of the mattress and the removal of moisture and night sweat. In addition, the cover of our Kipli features a central band that optimizes the mattress’s ventilation process. Kipli’s excellent breathability makes it resistant to mold and moisture retention.
9. Certifications
The Kipli mattress has earned the highest certifications available on the market. Kipli has obtained EUROLATEX, Eco Institut, CATAS, PEFC, and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I certifications. Kipli is also certified as a Class I medical device, and the cost of purchasing our mattress may therefore qualify as a deductible expense on your tax return using Form 730, with an IRPEF tax deduction of 19%.
