Futons are valued for their natural appeal and versatility. In Japan, futons are typically laid out on tatami floors for sleeping at night and folded up during the day to free up space for other uses. Futons can of course also be used in beds with slatted frames or tatami bases.
The Virgin Wool and Coconut Futon is a firm support mattress made from 6 layers of carded virgin wool with a 3 cm high layer of natural coconut fibre in between. The wool provides comfortable support as its elasticity allows the mattress to mould to the contours of the body. It is also naturally mite-resistant and highly thermoregulatory. It effectively absorbs and releases moisture, keeping the body cool in summer and warm in winter. The coconut fibre core increases the stiffness of the composition and maintains the shape of the mattress over time, as well as ensuring greater air circulation in the mattress.
If you prefer a higher mattress with more coconut, we recommend the Virgin Wool & Double Coconut Futon.
The Virgin Wool and Coconut Futon is available in single, queen or double bed size.

The futon cover is offered in a variety of colors presented in the selection above. The handcrafted step-stitching and edge seams perfectly match the color of the futon cover, ensuring a seamless and aesthetically pleasing look.
Futons, being quilted mattresses, do not feature a removable cover. In the event of stains, we recommend using a suitable stain remover for spot treatment. To safeguard your futon from potential stains and dust accumulation, we suggest utilizing a removable cover available in the Accessories section.
Additionally, it is advisable to periodically flip the futon to maintain the density of its cotton layers. To ensure longevity, the futon should be occasionally rolled up and allowed to air out, facilitating the release of any absorbed moisture from the environment. We recommend doing this at least 4 times a year.
If the futon filling contains two layers of coconut fibre, it cannot be folded. In this case, we recommend turning the mattress from time to time to maintain an even density of the cotton and/or wool layers. To air the mattress, you can leave it on the bed with the window open for about an hour, then turn it over and leave it to air for another hour.
At Arpel, our commitment to quality holds us back from the use of recycled cotton or wool for the futon batting. Recycled materials often lack the desired fibre quality due to wear and tear and they contains synthetic fibers. Our mattresses are exclusively crafted from high-quality virgin cotton and wool, ensuring durability and longevity. With proper care, Arpel mattresses can maintain their optimal condition for up to 10 years.
