Unique Points

The Birch mattress was designed by Helix, the team behind the leading mattress brand in customized sleep. Birch takes those learnings in comfort and uses all natural and organic materials. The Birch mattress is a 6 layer construction:

  • Cover - Organic Cotton
  • Fire Retardant Cover - Wool
  • Comfort Layer - Birch Wool
  • Pressure Relief Layer - Natural Talalay Latex
  • Support Layer - Individually Wrapped Coils
  • Base Layer - Wool Batting.

Inspired by the minimalist approach to sleep in the Far East, the Plank is the firmest, flattest, healthiest way to sleep. It has 4 layers of construction:

  • 0.75" Quilted Top
  • 2" TitanFlex Foam
  • 7" High-Density Base Foam
  • 1.5" Quilted Bottom.

Organic Cotton, Fire Retardant Cover, Comfort Layer, Pressure Relief Layer, Support Layer, Base Layer
0.75" Quilted Top, 2" TitanFlex Foam, 7" High-Density Base Foam, 1.5" Quilted Bottom.
Cover
The Birch Mattress has a cover that is made using natural, organic cotton. It is designed to be highly breathable with a subtle stretch and soft touch.
The flippable design of the Plank allows you to choose your ideal firmness level: a .75" quilted top layer, patterned with continuous stitching, ensures zero loft for an ultra-firm sleep experience - or, flip the mattress, and a 1.5" quilted layer, patterned with tack-and-jump stitching, creates minimal loft for a firm sleep experience.

Ergonomic Handles
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.
Engineered to reduce pressure on your circulatory system the Plank provides for better blood flow - and better lower back support, compelling you to inhale more oxygen while you snooze.
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.
The Plank offers a firmer, flatter, flippable surface for a neutral spine position that's better for your back and posture overall. A 2" layer of our firmest transitional TitanFlex foam adds deep compression support. A 7" high density base foam ensures durability and stability for the life of your bed.
