Somnus brand history

The brand Somnus was founded in 1840 and has prided itself on quality, tradition and innovation since its inception. The mattress factory is located in the UK, specifically in Yorkshire, where each mattress is made with care and attention to detail. Over its 180+ years of existence, Somnus has built a reputation for producing luxurious and comfortable mattresses that are handcrafted using the finest materials. Over the years, the Somnus brand has expanded its offerings with innovative technologies and patents that ensure not only comfort, but also spinal support, temperature regulation and extended mattress life. Thus, the brand delivers not only an aesthetically pleasing product, but also an investment in quality and healthy sleep.

Materials and natural ingredients in Somnus mattresses

One of the main characteristics of Somnus mattresses is the use of only natural materials. While many modern mattresses rely on synthetic materials, Somnus believes in natural alternatives that offer not only an eco-friendly approach, but also increased comfort and breathability. Key ingredients include:

• Yorkshire wool: The brand uses wool from local farms to provide natural breathability and help regulate body temperature while you sleep. The wool is hypoallergenic and antibacterial, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
• Cotton and silk: These natural materials give mattresses a luxurious feel and increase their breathability. Cotton and silk are soft to the touch, yet firm enough to hold the shape of the mattress.
• Horsehair: This less common but high-quality material is often used in premium mattresses. Horsehair is resilient, durable and very moisture wicking, contributing to a dry and comfortable sleeping environment.
• Natural Latex: Latex from natural sources is used in Somnus mattresses, which is flexible, adaptable and antimicrobial. Latex provides perfect body support and increases the life of the mattress.

Innovative technology for perfect support and comfort

Somnus prides itself on continually investing in research and development of new technologies to ensure perfect sleep comfort. Some of the key innovations Somnus has brought to market include patented spring system technologies that are designed to provide optimal support for every part of the body.

• Posture Zone System: This system is designed to adjust the firmness and support of the mattress exactly where it is needed. Thanks to segmented springs that work independently, even weight distribution and spinal stabilization is ensured, eliminating pressure points.
• Pocket Springs: Each Somnus mattress contains springs packed into individual pockets to provide maximum conformance to body movements. The springs in the pockets not only provide comfort, but also promote proper body positioning, which contributes to recovery and rest.
• EcoShield: Somnus uses natural protection against allergens and bacteria, making it ideal for people suffering from allergies. EcoShield is an eco-friendly technology that keeps mattresses fresh and hygienic for longer.

Somnus and sustainability

In today’s age, where the emphasis on environmental responsibility and sustainability is ever greater, Somnus strives to minimize its impact on the environment. Somnus works with local farmers and promotes ethical production with respect for nature. The use of natural and recyclable materials contributes to a lower burden on the planet while guaranteeing customers quality without chemicals and synthetic substances.

• Local production: Somnus sources wool and other materials from Yorkshire farmers, reducing the environmental footprint associated with transport and supporting the local economy.
• Recycling and recycling: Every Somnus mattress model is designed with recyclability and sustainability in mind. When the mattress reaches the end of its life, the materials can be recycled, eliminating waste and contributing to the circular economy.
• Certifications and Standards: Somnus meets strict environmental and ethical standards and boasts certifications such as OEKO-TEX and CertiPUR, which confirm that products are free of harmful substances and safe for users and the environment.

Care for the Somnus mattress for long-lasting comfort and quality

Caring for a luxury mattress like Somnus can ensure that it retains its features and comfort for a long time. It is advisable to rotate the mattress regularly to evenly distribute the load on the springs, and to keep the mattress clean by using protective covers to prevent dust and moisture from penetrating the mattress structure. Proper placement of the mattress on a suitable base also contributes to its durability and ensures optimal support and stability.

Cleaning and regular disinfection of mattresses

The mattress is one of the most important elements of our home, having a major impact on our health, well-being and quality of sleep. When choosing a mattress, we pay close attention to its material, hardness and ability to adapt to the shape of the body. Unfortunately, we often forget that we also need to care for and clean the mattress regularly. Although many people don’t realise it, a mattress can become an ideal environment for dust mites, bacteria, mould and other dirt. In this text, we’ll explain why regular mattress cleaning is important, what your options are, and how to choose the best mattress cleaner.

Mattress Vacuuming & Knocking: Professional vacuums with a HEPA filter and HEPA bag must have an electric vibrating knocking head. This technology of KIRBY® / HYLA® vacuum cleaners makes it possible to remove surface mold spores, dust mites by dry method from the mattress surface.

Cleaning with special chemical cleaners: Professional antibacterial disinfectants and cleaners from the manufacturer and brand POTEMA® / Dr. Schutz® bring an environmentally friendly, anti-allergenic way to disinfect mattress surfaces.

UV-C Lamp: We recommend entrusting your mattress to industry professionals who have a UV-C germicidal mattress lamp. UV lamps that produce UVC radiation are designed to be safely used on mattress surfaces and other household items. The radiant energy of the UVC radiation acts directly on microorganisms that reside on the surface and top layer of the mattress. The disinfection process usually takes a few minutes, during which time the lamp kills up to 99.9% of the bacteria and other harmful organisms present.

OZON: we recommend entrusting your mattress to industry professionals who have the BIO-OZON® vacuum cleaning system. The disinfecting properties of ozone result from its ability to oxidize molecules in the cells of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. When ozone comes into contact with these pathogens, it disrupts the cell membrane or wall of the microorganism, leading to its decomposition and subsequent death. This process works similarly to the action of conventional disinfectants, but without the use of chemicals, which is beneficial for people who prefer natural and eco-friendly solutions.

In indoor applications such as mattress cleaning, ozone not only kills bacteria and viruses, but also mites, mold spores and other allergens. Its ability to destroy harmful microorganisms without toxic residues makes it ideal for the environment in which we sleep and rest.

Allergens, mold spores, bacteria, viruses and dust mites are not only a hygiene problem in mattresses, but also a health problem. But with proper prevention, maintenance and the right choice of mattress, the risks can be significantly reduced. Even the thickest sheets and blankets cannot protect us from micro-particles. Dust mites or moulds, which often number up to one million and produce allergy-causing faeces that settle in our mouths, noses, eyes, etc. every time we move. In addition to the allergy manifesting as itching, mucous membrane inflammation, bronchitis, asthma and shortness of breath can be added. This condition can be prevented by professional cleaning and deep dry disinfection thanks to UV-C radiation or vacuum ozonation of the mattress with thorough machine vacuuming and above all regular maintenance.
