Different types of natural fibers used in mattresses
Natural products like cotton, wool as well as silk are really good for the body.

Bamboo fabric is a natural antibacterial and has a beautiful luster, so it is often mixed with silk to make comfortable sleeping surfaces.
The coconut coir mattress is another very popular cot-bed mattress for babies. This type of mattress is made from coconut husks coated in natural latex to make a supportive and breathable layer. Another popular cot bed mattress is the Mohair Mat which is made from horsetail hair - the longest and the most durable natural fiber in the world.
