Sleep and Sweat: The Dirty Truth

Those little towels at your gym aren’t the only things that know what it’s like to pass the time soaking up sweat.

Your mattress has a front row seat to all that perspiration. Imagine the germs, dirt and grime that collect under your Egyptian cotton. Nobody wants that lurking between the sheets.

We decided our beds should be an elevated piece of performance equipment that turns the mattress experience upside-down. So, instead of ignoring the surly subject of sweat, we attacked it head-on.

First, the facts: Every morning you crawl out from the sheets, you’ve unwittingly left your mattress a one-pint serving of your sweat. Over the course of 10 years, you’ve made 740 gallon contribution to your bed’s sweat fund. Generous, no doubt, but downright shocking.

Most mattresses contain hundreds of metal springs that require extra filling to provide a comfortable sleep experience. Each chunk of filling acts like a mini-furnace, trapping heat and dialing up you snoozing temperature.

Because we use between 80 and 110 springs in our beds that don’t require added filling, your body isn’t pushed to the boiling point by unnecessary heat-trapping material.

The springs aren’t the only aspect of our beds that cool you off, either. We made sure the interior space of our mattress is as clutter-free as possible. We created a well-ventilated and temperature-controlled environment. Air can circulate inside the bed, making you the lucky recipient of a nightly shroud of cool air instead of a stuffy parka of sweat.

We surround this chamber of coolness with an open-pore structure foam material that’s only two inches thick. While your sweat glands are doing their best soak your sheets, our mattress fights back with an ingenious design in which air circulates inside the mattress before releasing through foam pores.

Also, our mattress covers add to the cool Somnium sleep experience. We made our covers out of breathable fabric, lining them with an airy mesh just begging to keep you comfortable.

Technical talk, we know, but the results are just what we want: A spirited, snarky goodbye to 740 gallons of sweat. How cool is that?
