Why we overheat
Body heat gets trapped by dense foam and heavy covers. Ventilation and moisture control are key.
Cooling mattress materials
Sleepeezee’s gel foams and Dunlopillo latex excel at temperature regulation.
Bedding choices
Opt for cotton or TENCEL™ covers; pair with light duvets (4.5–7 tog in summer).
Bedroom setup
Maintain 18 °C room temperature; use breathable protectors.
Long-term solutions
Hybrid or latex mattresses last longer and stay cooler than dense memory foam.
FAQs
Are cooling toppers effective?
Yes—they enhance airflow and comfort temporarily.
Can natural latex help?
Absolutely—Dunlopillo latex remains cool and resilient for years.
