Coconut Fibre

 
 

This material is derived from the husk fibres of coconuts. The fibres are compressed together with natural glue giving it a rubbery texture. The coconut material has excellent moisture and air permeability properties which keeps the mattress internally dry. It is also extremely elastic, yet strong, making it a necessary addition to a mattress to provide firm support for the spinal column.
