About Astral Nature
Astral Nature combines traditional artisanal skills with advanced rest technology, using natural materials (wool, cotton, linen, silk, natural latex, etc.) offering healthy, sustainable, long-lasting products.
Natural materials bring breathability, thermal comfort and hypoallergenic properties. They are also more environmentally friendly and help maintain a constant temperature while you sleep.
Yes. Every Astral Nature mattress is made by expert artisans, following traditional processes ensuring precision, durability and an exclusive rest experience.
Yes. All the materials are selected following sustainability criteria, reducing the use of synthetic products and promoting the circular economy by using local suppliers and low-environmental-impact processes.
- Pocket springs: independent support and great adaptability.
- Natural latex: elasticity, softness and uniform support.
- Hybrid combinations: balance between firmness and natural comfort.
Each model is adapted to different firmness and temperature preferences.
- Turn it over or turn it round every 3 months.
- Use a breathable base.
- Avoid direct moisture.
- Do not roll it or fold it.
- Periodically airing it makes it last longer.
- The mattresses can be combined with upholstered bases, slatted bases or folding ottomans. Astral Nature also makes bases specifically designed to optimise the performance of its mattresses.
Astral Nature are delivered without rolling and without compressing the materials at all. This decision reflects Astral Nature’s philosophy: to respect the structure of the mattress and the purity of the natural materials, guaranteeing the best possible rest from the very first day.
Green protective packaging
Every mattress is carefully protected with a breathable, recyclable cover designed to maintain its natural ventilation and prevent damage during transport.
Astral Nature avoids using conventional plastics, replacing them with sustainable packaging, which is either biodegradable or has a low environmental impact. The packaging not only protects the product, it extends the useful life of the natural materials, allowing them to “breathe” even before they are delivered.
All products have a 5-year guarantee against manufacturing defects, provided they are used in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
About our products
Astral Nature works with solutions designed to optimise the mattress:
- Upholstered base
- A rigid, stable surface with 3D fabric for breathability.
- Recommended for pocket springs and hybrids when you are looking for firmness.
- Slatted base
- The structure with wooden/composite slats provides elasticity and ventilation.
- Recommended for natural latex and for those wanting an extra degree of softness.
- Folding ottoman
- Integrated storage with rigid cover; versions with breathable cover.
- Perfect for optimising space without losing support.
- Structure + headboard
- Customisable options in fabrics, colours and heights; compatible with base or internal support.
- How to choose: assess the firmness you want, the need for storage, breathability (warm climates) and looks.
Compatibility affects comfort, ventilation and the useful life of the rest equipment. Brand recommendations:
- Pocket spring mattresses
- Ideal base: firm upholstered base or ottoman with rigid cover and breathable 3D fabric.
- Why: the springs works better on stable surfaces; the rigid cover prevents collapses and the 3D fabric facilitates ventilation.
- Natural latex mattresses
- Ideal base: slatted base or very well ventilated base.
- Why: latex is highly adaptable and needs air circulation to maintain a dry microclimate.
- Hybrid mattresses (natural + springs/latex)
- Ideal base: a firm, breathable base.
- Why: they balance support and ventilation; avoid solid, non-breathable bases.
Signs of a poor combination: movement at the edges, a “hammocky” feel, too much
heat or humidity, noises.
Tip: check the base height (35-40 cm with mattress) for the ergonomics of sitting down/getting up.
Yes. Astral Nature offers
Yes, although the assembly is simple and is usually included in the delivery service. The installation teams ensure safe, professional assembly.
- Clean the upholstery with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
- Avoid abrasive or strong chemical products.
- Periodically vacuum to remove dust and keep the fabrics fresh.
With proper use and maintenance, Astral Nature beds and bases can last more than 10 years without losing their stability or good looks.
All products have a 5-year guarantee against manufacturing defects. Natural materials can vary slightly in texture and colour, which is quite normal and does not affect their performance.
About rest
Rest allows the body and mind to recover from the physical and mental effort of the day. It improves concentration, mood and productivity and strengthens the immune system.
Most adults need between 7 and 9 hours’ sleep a night. However, sleep quality is as important as quantity.
Some tips:
- Have regular times for going to sleep and waking up.
- Avoid screens (mobile phones, computers, TV) at least 30 minutes before going to sleep.
- Cut down your coffee and alcohol consumption.
- Create a dark, silent, cool environment.
- Meditate or do breathing exercises before going to bed.
Yes. You are recommended to take short 5-10-minute breaks every hour. This help you to reduce visual fatigue, improve your posture and maintain your concentration.
Active microbreaks (stretching, walking for a few minutes or breathing exercises) and mental rest (moving away from the screen or having a brief chat) are very effective for maintaining performance.
Yes, provided it is short (between 10 and 30 minutes) and not too late in the day. Siestas improve your attention and your memory without affecting your night’s sleep.
Lack of rest reduces your capacity for concentration, increases mistakes, raises stress and saps motivation. In the long term, it can affect physical and mental health.
- Constant sleepiness.
- Irritability or lack of motivation.
- Difficulty in concentrating.
- Frequent muscle pain or headaches.
- Feeling of exhaustion even after sleeping.
- Prioritise tasks and delegate where possible.
- Set clear times for switching off.
- Establish pre-sleep routines.
- Avoid working too much or taking work home.
No. Rest also involves emotional, mental and social recovery. Activities like reading, going for walks, meditating or spending time with loved ones also form part of healthy rest.
