Comfort	Our materials come from nature - whether it be wool sustainably sheared from New Zealand sheep or latex tapped from trees. These premium materials are comfortable on your body and conscience. 100% all natural & organic Birch Wool provides unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation. Birch Wool is designed to retain shape with a natural elasticity of each fiber. Talalay latex is up to 7 times more breathable than other types of latex. Natural latex is also hypoallergenic and anti-microbial.	Nolah AirFoam is guaranteed to sleep cooler than memory foam.
Support	We spent countless hours finding the right density of latex, quantity of wool, and type of steel springs to provide unprecedented comfort and pressure relief. Each mattress features a reinforced perimeter for best in class edge support. The coils that run along the outside of your mattress are actually firmer, so no more feeling of falling off the bed when lying down or sitting on the edge. Natural Talalay latex provides response to cushion your pressure points while giving support. Our latex is carefully managed to ensure consistency. Hundreds of individual steel coils help to cradle your body and provide support, while also limiting motion transfer. Additionally, the reinforced perimeter coils provide best in class edge support.	With extra-deep AirFoam pressure relief on hips and shoulders the Nolah Signature 12" mattress is the most comfortable mattress for side, back and stomach sleepers. The soft side is perfect for side and back sleepers, while the firm side is loved by stomach sleepers and people looking for a firm mattress. Nolah AirFoam offers 4x better pressure relief than memory foam and higher durability. The soft side is made especially for side sleepers looking for extra-deep pressure relief on hips and shoulders and back sleepers looking for that "cloud-like" floating feeling. The firm side is made for stomach sleepers and people looking for a firm mattress with the perfect balance of firmness and support.
