These luxury eco mattresses make Tempur seem like a Barbie doll bed.

So what is about Essentia that is making the competition quake in their boots? They created a luxurious, eco-friendly, natural memory foam. Before Essentia, every memory foam was synthetic therefore would trap heat in and stunk to high heaven. Essentia developed a foam using latex, essential oils, plant extracts and water so it's odorless, healthy to sleep on and biodegradable. Their mattresses don't contain any adhesive either.
