Foundational Support

The DIY combination with Talalay toppers begins with our 6" Organic Dunlop Mattress in Firm. We use this specific firmness level as the foundation because Talalay latex is naturally softer. By starting with a Firm base, you ensure that your mattress has the right balance to complement the plush, buoyant feel of a Talalay topper. Crafted from GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex, this base layer is exceptionally durable, breathable, and naturally resilient. This thoughtful pairing creates a sleep surface that feels both supportive and luxuriously soft in just the right way.

6" GOLS Organic Dunlop Latex Core with Comfort Layer

2" Comfort Layer

The 2" Talalay Latex Topper is the perfect way to add surface-level softness to the Firm Dunlop base without overwhelming its support. Available only in Soft, this topper introduces Talalay’s signature buoyant and pressure-relieving feel while maintaining the overall firmness of the foundation. Its slimmer profile provides subtle contouring, making it ideal for back or combination sleepers who want just a touch of plushness. By keeping the topper at 2", the result is a mattress that feels supportive yet slightly cushioned, with a responsive surface that adapts gently to the curves of your body. This option is perfect if you prefer a firmer sleep surface but want to soften it just enough to ease pressure points.

3" Comfort Layer

The 3" Talalay Latex Topper offers a more transformative level of comfort, turning your Firm Dunlop base into a noticeably softer and more luxurious sleep surface. Like the 2" version, it is only available in Soft, but the additional thickness provides deeper contouring and a more pronounced plush feel. The 3" Talalay topper is best for side sleepers or anyone who loves the sensation of sinking into a mattress that still has strong support underneath. Its open-cell structure enhances airflow and keeps the mattress cool, while the natural buoyancy of Talalay latex ensures that you don’t feel trapped or overly compressed. When paired with the Firm base, this topper creates a mattress that blends reliable support with cloud-like softness, making it an excellent choice for those seeking comfort without compromising spinal alignment.

FAQ

What type of Dunlop latex do you use?

All Dunlop latex used in our mattress is GOLS-certified organic. The primary criteria for GOLS certification are:

the organic latex content must by 95% or greater.
no synthetic latex can be used

Additionally, all latex is strenuously tested for harmful substances, VOC's

Dunlop is the original process of manufacturing natural rubbers and remains the optional process for 100% natural and organic latex products. Dunlop is the only process that has commercially available GOLS-certified organic latex products.

What is the best type of latex for me?

We carry the best natural (Organic Dunlop) and blended (Talalay) latex types and price them the same so you can make a choice based solely on the best fit.

Dunlop is more natural, denser, and supportive. Talalay is softer and more consistent but only comes in smaller sizes. For example, a King must be made with glued pieces, and all our mattresses are glue-free, so any King will be made from Twin XL's. All Dunlop pieces are solid.

Some people recommend mixing Talalay comfort layers and Dunlop support cores, but this typically isn't necessary or the ideal use for either latex type.

How does your layer exchange program work?

All mattress 8" or thicker (futons are not included) come with a top-zippered covered and our 180-day layer exchange program. Contact us by phone or email and we will work through what layers need to be exchanged. Once we decide on the layers simply unzip them from the mattress, bring them back to us and we will give you new ones. We can even arrange for freight for out-of-town customers.

What latex certifications do you have?

All our Dunlop Latex is GOLS Certified Organic.
